Lots of megadungeon kickstarters are currently as its megadungeon month.
its a bit of a flood - I'm considering a few KS campaigns and Traveller 5th ed D&D
Got my OSE book i wanted and getting land of eem without shitty post rates of usa.
Basically, 3 big online distro stores are affordable post many indy games post doubles book cost and unclear if i can bundle several items under same post.
I have 17 books i own sitting in uk for over 2 months.
We had a con cancelled because of wild fuel prices made a rural event not happen.
Prices of old game gear second hand getting sillier. Ppl wanting 80-100 for hardbacks, from ad&d to 5th ed, even if item cheaper on amazon. 80s box sets 200-400. My covid buying has had good interest vs my teapots.
Im evaluating some KS campaigns and have a bunch of dnd5 items im watching for prices, most below release prices in shops. Castle Whiterock, mutant spawn of the toad mother, and grim hollow.
Got Dragon Delves half price and i rate it highly and keen to use one scenario next week. As my Theros game full of giants i might need more dragons in this game and it fits. The giant and dragon lore book has lots of ready to use intersting locations. WelshDM said they should do a book of planar locations and monsters for the current version. Im re-reading Fizban Dragon and Bigby Giant books, lots and using in play often.
I wonder if d&d5.5 will be finished before next version
as in will it revise or expand much on 2014 version
the more books i find on sale the more i will get - at full or wose prices other brands come into view as desirable, like DCC or chaosium books.

Making a few maps for my weekly d&d5 game
I prefer writing up as old school as a form of shorthand vs modern huge statblocks
I am feeling better at using monsters and estimating threat levels after a year
I find this easy in BX clones and BRP to make players feel fear

This is for those cool final monsters and bosses
keep the villainy alive (or undead) with this!
Helps plots happen in a sandbox
d12 So we killed it, now what?
1 Some other monster stalks the smell of blood on treasures
2 Has dangerous parasites or releases disease miasma
3 Someone really wanted an item in the monster's treasure and you beat them to it
4 It has a relative or friend who swears revenge
5 It has an extended clan or faction that swears revenge
6 Local monsters hear of their peer's death and meet to plot against this potential enemy
7 A cult that revered the monster mark killers for death
8 An evil lord or faction leader decides adventurers are a threat to their schemes
9 Hags or witches try to restore the monster's life
10 Its spirit calls out from beyond for mischief & suffering, may return as a phantom or escape hell transformed. Perhaps supernatural beigs aid it or return it to life
11 A powerful evil regional spirit or evil noble takes notice of this new threat to evil plans
12 A creepy god who nudged the monsters' destiny is displeased and surveils killers
