Rules (wip):
Curse of Strahd is truly fantastic as a setting and basic ideas but the module itself is a piece of crap.
Hammering it into shape, making sense of it, and making it all hang together has been a craptonne of work, and I've used loads of 3rd party stuff. The Curse of Strahd subreddit is AMAZING for that.
It's truly a pile of hot garbage RAW, but I'm having the time of my life customizing and making it mine.
I'm a fan of the 3rd party campaign module Odyssey of the Dragonlords and it's hilarious how much this is the consensus on the dedicated Discord community for that adventure. Everyone loves the bones of the module, but everyone also agrees it needs a lot of love and polish.
@dwgill @TripHammer we dropped it. Our GM had a hard time filling all the gaps in this adventure and it was a pain to watch. Good ideas but our consense was it is poorly executed.
We hoped for more and were hyped. Glad you have a blast with it!
I mean I don't want to give the impression I ran it with any great success myself. I gave it a shot but scheduling doomed that campaign. I was just sharing the impression that I got from the discord when I was lurking at the time. Plenty of gaps to compensate for, though, no doubt.
@dwgill totally misunderstood that. :)
