Sign up to play a classic dungeon crawl. Click the link for details. Play will be on Wednesday nights starting on 3/11 at 7:30 PM Central Time. Play until 10:30 PM. Need at least 5 for a game, topping out at 7.

Once I get enough players, I will setup a Google community and invite the players to the community where we can communicate with each other between games. We will use the FG teamspeak. I have an ultimate license so anyone can play.

I'm looking for mature players who have not played this module.

Would be most interested in this! Hope more sign up. Just purchased the 5e rules but have been playing D&D for 35 years!

Roll up a couple of 1st level characters. If one dies, you have another one ready to go.

We have 5 signed up on the calendar and I have sent out invites to all 5 to join the Google Community. 4 of you have already joined so I'm waiting on the LogicalSky to join. His/her invite was sent a moment ago. I'm working on getting a dedicated channel on the FG teampseak server for our game. Once that is done, I think we're all set.

If you guys have characters created and ready for import into FG, let me know in the Google Community in the characters category. I'll get those imported. Also, I'm working on a few mod files to make character management easier.

To provide you guys a little background on your GM: I've been playing DnD 4e for 2 years as a player. Played and DM'd a little 5e. I'm running another group through this exact same adventure so I have incorporated what I've learned thus far into this game. For those of you who have played this adventure before, this is not your father's KotB! I like to keep the game moving so no one gets bored, but I understand that sometimes the game slows down because I've done my job to make you guys think a bit. :) Whether you are an optimizer, a role player, a problem solver, into story, or playing for the first time, etc., I try to cater to all player types.

Only 2 more slots open!

Looking forward to meeting everyone on 3/11!

@Baron28 My cleric is mostly done. I'm assuming we're using Forgotten Realms pantheon rather than Greyhawk?

You may choose your gods from any pantheon. This world setting is not restricted in that sense.

A spot has opened up in this game for someone who is looking to participate in a classic adventure module that was converted from 1e to 5e.

A quick update to those who follow the forums in the community. Some of you wonder, is it possible to start a campaign and recruit players by creating a post on Fantasy Grounds? Is it possible to find a campaign by perusing the FG forums? Yes and Yes! Some background on this campaign.

Back in early March, I was just beginning to get familiar with 5E and Fantasy Grounds from the DM side. I took the route of converting some old AD&D 1E adventure modules to 5E and reached out here on the forums to anyone who wanted to play. I've found a great group who enjoying playing once a week for 3 hours and we are still going. A player here and there have come and gone because this is just a game and sometimes life gets in the way or there is another table out there better suited to a player's interest. Nevertheless, this campaign has been going for almost 8 months! We started with Keep on the Borderlands and the party has traveled to White Plume Mountain. If the party survives, who knows? There are rumors of Giants off to the north or do they dare enter the tomb of horrors?

If anyone has any questions about how to get a game off the ground, recruit players and keep it going, please shoot me a note.

I'm more afraid of the Lingering Injuries table than any Giants.......

Congratulations to a fun group of adventurers! For 1 year we played just about every Wednesday night for 3 hours. Over the course of the year, this group of adventurers managed to survive 5th Edition rules conversions of Keep on the Borderlands, White Plume Mountain and Tomb of Horrors. Special Mention to goes out to Matt, who played the dwarven fighter Nar. He was the only player character to survive the all three adventures! Tomb of Horrors was a good way to end the campaign. It was a pleasure to be your DM and welcome another opportunity to be your DM or player in a game you DM in the future.

Best time I've had in years Chris! Great job week in and week out! I was sad that it had to end but hey we never know what the future holds! defiantly keep me in mind if you ever need a player to fill in for a game or better yet I'm here if you run another! I hope someday to have the time to run a game again! If I do you will be the first one I will be contacting! Everyone else who I met on this year long journey, well wishes and thank you for your new friendship! As Nar would say! HAZAR! Drink deep and live life to the fullest!!!

What campaign setting are you playing this in? Is the campaign just KOB or will you be looking to carry the campaign forward after?
