The Essentials Kit for D&D 5e continues. Show notes: https://ggnorecast.com/169.

Daniel shows how to add elevation contour lines to a hex map, how to calculate sight lines in terms of hexes, how to navigate overland by means of such, and muses on why in the world one might desire to do so. Show notes: https://ggnorecast.com/168.

We start our actual play of the new 5e Essentials Kit. Show notes: https://ggnorecast.com/167.

We talk about the upcoming Essentials Kit for D&D 5, the actual play of which will be our next episode. We also touch on how we created characters, both mechanically and dramatically, and discussed more broadly the issue of suiting PCs to settings, especially when you don't know what kind of themes will be present in the setting or module.

Daniel got it into his head to run a Dante's Inferno tactical D&D war/storygame. Unfortunately, Roll20 doesn't let you export entire campaigns; so we're dumping all the assets out there for you to use if you want—or at least for you to get an idea of the kind of assets that would be involved were you to want to do something similar. Be sure to check the show notes page for all the goodies.

 The party continues into a labyrinth of the kobold lair, has to navigate using verbal description only, and gets into a dicey fight. Later that night, back in the real world, Saggitarius witnesses something that will have serious implications in the future.

 Actual play proper of our experimental 5e intro campaign, Kirland. Refer to the previous episode for background on how it was created, and see the show notes for all the material Daniel had generated to run the first session of it.

In this episode, the characters explore around the barrow-downs, find hidden treasure, learn a bit about the town, grab some rumors, and head out to the marshes to collect a bounty on a bandit king's head.
