Ravnica (Round Table 163)

DM's Deep Dive Episode 21 Live Tuesday December 11th!

#DnD5E #Eberron This is part of the reviews of the Embers of the Last War Adventure league Series of Adventures.  This one I Look at Jack of Daggers by Ginny Loveday someone I respect and from what I hear the Adventure Path Producer is James Intracaso another person I respect.. Nonetheless, it is not that good.  I had one of the most frustrating experience I have had running an adventure running this adventure. Let me just say I think the Creatures/ NPC section is a counterproductive exercise in over-indulgence. Finally the run time of this podcast is 33 minutes and 39 seconds.
