Updated Campaign Log and Some Thoughts On D&D

— Matt Harris @ 5:09 pm

I have updated the Cormarian campaign log with the results of the fourth game session.

I have come to a couple of conclusions about DMing D&D 3.5:

  1. When using a scale of 10′ per square for my map and 5′ per square on my battlemat, my battlemat is too small for running battles. This leads me to two conclusions – running battles suck and I need a to get much larger battlemat.
  2. Whenever the party turns undead in an area in which they can run away, the party will inevitably give chase, turning the encounter into a running battle. Turn Undead sucks ;-).
  3. It is much more difficult stocking dungeons in 3.5, as opposed to version 2. Monster stat blocks are longer and more complex. They also aren’t included in the System Resource Document, which means I need to create my own.
