One Word Prompt #72 - War in the Sun

It's that time again!

I've got a pretty cool thing I'm working on that features mass scale combat. Except, it's a bit like a choose-your-own-adventure, where each failure and success you accrue leads to one of ten possible endings.

But before we get there, we need the choices and encounters. That's where you come in.

In the comments below, list a single word related to fighting a war in the desert (or any word you fancy, really). I'...

[Announcement] No Dungeons & Lairs Today

Hey all!

A little bad news for ya, but there will be no Dungeons/Lairs today. Earlier this week, Laura, the superstar content manager who builds the modules and sets everything up was feeling a bit under the weather. I told her to take a few days off to recover and we'd just pick up next week. So, if you see Laura on Discord, wish her well.

However,  the contributors and I are all working on something pretty cool. Starting next week, the next four Dungeons/Lairs will add up t...

Call for Suggestions - Restructuring the Tiers: What Should I Do?

Hey all!

As DMDave continues to grow and expand, it dawns on me that it's time to give a good review of the current patron tiers and make some changes. 

Before I go and gut everything (don't worry, even if the tiers change, you'll keep your current benefits and I'm not going to suddenly give high-tier benefits away for cheap haha), what sort of things would you like to see added? I'll let you know what is and isn't possible.

Let me know your thoughts down in the comment...

BroadSword Update May 2, 2022

Hey all!

Just a quick heads-up on BroadSword. 

  • #23 should be out soon in PDF form.
  •  #22 has a minor issue with the printers that we're fixing. As soon as Scott fixes it, we'll order proof, so expect it to ship soon. 
  • We might time it so #22 and #23 go out together. Better for the environment!

All of #21 should be out. if you have any problems, drop me a message at logistics@dmdave.com and I'll get you squared away.

Thanks! View Post

[All Patrons] DMDave Maps - Midnight City: The Dusty Wife Tavern and Inn [16x8]

This little tavern/inn was inspired by some cool dives I used to patronize back when I was a drinkin' dude in my twenties. You'd have two buildings that weren't previously connected purchased by the restaurant owner and converted into one, with a hole cut into the wall between the two. You can see the same between the tavern floor and kitchen here.

This set comes with: gridded (white and black), ungridded, with day and night versions. It includes four levels: 01) basement, 02) tavern, 0...

[All Patrons] DMDave Maps - Midnight City: That House on Corvus Street [16x16]

When "Abandoned/Spooky" won the poll this month, I knew I wanted to create an old, abandoned house like the one that was in the movie It and its sequel. I made it extra grungy, too, the type of place with no hope of recovery. Even the basement is flooded.

This set comes with: gridded (white and black), ungridded, with day and night versions. It includes four levels: 01) basement, 02) ground floor, 03) upstairs, and 04) roof.
