While it is an entire forum devoted to the game with many different sub-sections it’s actually quite difficult to find a thread worth posting in. Why the OOTS Forums? Because the forum rules there not only encourage people to be nice to each other, they demand it.īlizzard’s forums are filled with petty disagreements and foul language. I spend my time talking about Hearthstone at the Order of the Stick Forums. Blizzard’s forums, Hearthpwn, Gamepedia, and Liquid Hearth to name a few. There are a lot of Hearthstone communities on the web.
So… I think I’ll start this week off by going through the cities of Cimmeria in alphabetical order. Making it available through a website instead of a single word document might also be helpful.
If I update that info it will give my players access to better information. This king is dead, that building burned down, that city got founded, etc. While all this information has been available for my players in the past, its been a little outdated.Ībout 45 years have passed in my campaign setting since I originally created it, so many of the things I originally wrote are no longer accurate. I’ll mirror the blog posts with pages setup through the top bar on the webpage so the content will be easily accessible in the future. I think I’ll start trying to post one thing a week about Cimmeria. Through posts seems the most obvious way. I’d like to make that available, but how do I do it? I’ve been posting campaign log entries on a thread of the Order of the Stick forums for a few years now.īut there’s just this immense pile of background info that I’ve created over the years of playing in this setting. I’d like to start posting stuff about my Cimmeria campaign. I’ve decided I don’t care so much anymore. I’ve avoided it previously because I want to post stuff about Gurutama and I didn’t want it to get too confusing with two D&D campaign settings in the same place. These updates will be posted permanently at the top of the website under the Cimmeria tab just like the cities have been.įor a while now I’ve been rolling the idea around in my head of posting stuff about Cimmeria, my current D&D campaign setting. Since I’m most interested in doing more timeline stuff, so I will be taking on that challenge first.įuture posts on D&D Mondays will be about the timeline, perhaps with the occasional character or place description woven in as suits my preference. My players and I have come up with some awesome stuff to fill that space, but the specifics of events and timing hasn’t been ironed out yet. When I first started my campaign I left the history as a blank slate so it could be filled in later. What are the Elves of Valor’s Forest like? Who lives in the Dominarie Mountains? What about that Primitive Camp in the bottom right of the map?ģ. Descriptions of places on the map that are not towns or cities. There are tons of them and with so many floating around its easy to get lost.Ģ. This will help current and future readers of the campaign log as well as my players.īut what remains to be said about Cimmeria?ġ. Instead of trying to improve the presentation there using the limited tools of PHP forums I’ll be presenting background campaign info here. Unfortunately, my presentation of Cimmeria’s background info on the forums is either nonexistent or god-awful. I’ve got a successful campaign log on Order of the Stick Forums. I’m trying to develop the site into a storage place for my campaigns in Cimmeria. There will still be infrequent posts about that here but that won’t be my main goal with D&D Mondays. I’m doing all my Gurutama work slowly on the Gurutama wiki. Yuettencal was the last of the Cities of Cimmeria posts, so what’s next for D&D Mondays?
