Thank you. Please share the video too!

I for one wish to welcome our algorithmic overlords. Way, way better than the giant ants.
Ay ay 🫡
Hail!
The reimagining and using the old modules really inspired me to do much the same, the more grim, darker, grittier story playing out through the adventures feels more real and true to the past I recall, waiting to once again be awed.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. This video is worth the wait.
I agree
In all honesty 2e stuff is not that hard to work into 5e
@@scoots291 except for the fact that 5e tells you to avoid triggering stuff and gnomes are huge now
@@solouno2280 I was talking about adventures from 2 e being very easy to put in 5e they are very plug and play with little editing needed
I never usually bother commenting but... man... you did it. It my sincere pleasure to say this is pure gold: the narrative, the soundtrack, the tips & trick, heck even the cameo is just perfect "product placement". I'm a Patreon since a few weeks, but sure count me in for a few more years. Keep'em coming PDM, the community needs more insights like those you provide.
Thank you so much for your kind words and patronage.

@@DUNGEONCRAFT1 I’m looking everywhere for a way to contact you for a possible consultation. Do you have a business email or a way for someone to contact you ? I love your videos and they have been a big help in planning and creating my own home brew world .
Two page adventures are my new inspiration for minimal prep
Beautiful, a máster piece. Me encanta el sentido detectivesco casi estilo noir con el que se narra la historia. Extrañe las miniaturas sin embargo.
Same here!
Good on you for stressing a golden DM tip: ONLY PREP THE SET UP OF A SCENARIO. NOT THE OUTCOME! Professor DM always the good knowledge 👍
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it. One never knows what your players will do!
I can feel Tzeentch's laughter and it built up even more with that ending.
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
If I had realised I could write the adventure in two pages, I would have saved myself a lot of time! 😉
In seriousness, this is great. Thanks for bringing my adventure to a new audience! 👍
You're more than welcomed! My players had a great time! If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
The campaign videos like this are my favorites.
Mine too! Please share so I make more.
Thank you Professor for another campaign video! This one goes right up beside The Reviled Society as my favorites among your library.
Mixing the campaign review with specific choices you made and general tips for running the game is hugely helpful.
Looking forward to the next one!
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Played for the first time in years .(20+). Had to DM. And im not a DM. But what a blast. Need tons of improvement. Thanks for all you do.
Thanks so much for sharing and watching my channel.
We all start at needing a lot of improvement, but we get there eventually. Keep going and you'll find your own voice and feel like a pro!
@@Viscoth THANK YOU😊
Awesome!! I bought this adventure because you had mentioned it a long time ago. I never ran it because it looked long and scary (I rarely run modules), but this video gives me the perfect jumping point now that I’ve seen you simplify it!
Have fun! Share this video!
I don't have anything to add but this video rocks and I really dig this creator so I'm commenting to appease whichever unknowable divinity shines approval on vids like this!
More substantially: What a fun tutorial haha, and I love the thesis in general- this channel is my go-to for DM brainstorming/advice now
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Great video, these types are (by far) my favorite. Great source of tips-n-trick for my own table. The two page primer is a great idea; I'll implement what I can, but my players are a bit disjointed and go off the rails easily (they often zoom right past multiple plot hooks and head straight into the chaos.
Thank you for watching. Re: your players, I feel you.
This is the content you you love to make, and it shows.
Well done sir.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
These campaign videos are always inspiring I've never watched one without grabbing a couple different elements, filing off the serial numbers and using them in my campaign.
Steal away! Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Shared to a couple different gaming groups I'm in, plus my FB wall and TwiX. @@DUNGEONCRAFT1
I could never use your campaign title, though, because if I make such an obvious Sondheim reference, my wife will require that I SING the villainous monologue, "The worst pies in Middenheim..."
this video is SUPERB! i enjoyed it immensely. great advice, amazing voice acting, very high production value and an excellent story- thank you!
Wow, thank you!
That climax totally felt like Max Mannheim rolling in with his goons while the group tried to save the tied-up victims in the tight space with the barrels of gunpowder or oily rags or whatever it was. Great video. It's too bad the algorithm doesn't watch the content deeply for quality, because the algorithm should just know this is good.
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it. My players Hate Max!!
Been looking forward to this since it was announced! Thanks Prof DM!
Commenting to feed the algorithm, but also to say that this is some of your finest work! I completely understand the never ending battle of trying to get views on your videos, which is unfortunate, because you're one of my favorite youtubers! Great stuff, incredibly inspiring, and I'm excited to implement some of the ideas that this one's given me! Thank you!
It is a tough balancing act for sure. If more people shared these videos, it would help. Share the video if you can.
THiS WAS AMAZING! I love...LOVE...I say, this kind of content. PDM, that was simply great. It was both a testament to your excellent players and your gaming approach (not that it really matters, but I endorse it 110%!). I was so caught up in the conclusion, I was grinning from ear to ear. I actually got goose-flesh when Silence caught her daughter--your players had to have been nearly out of their minds with the tension. So cool! So completely what TTRPGin' is all about. The quality of the vid, its trajectory and build up: all top-shelf! The amount of work that must of have gone into it! Talk about production value! This was an obvious labor of love and well worth the wait. Thank you!
Thank you so much. It was fun to play and the episode was fun to make.
Awesome video Professor! Love the breakdown......very useful!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love seeing how you prep! It looks like it can be summed up as: you read and digest a module fully, translate it to your setting with your notes, and boil it down to what you need in session to 2 pages.
I also think boxed text is exceptionally useful and love how you set the scene!
Well played indeed, there is nothing better than an awesome night at the table! Ultra tense climax and a great way to keep players on the edge of their seats.
Hi Prof. DM! Glad to hear the session went so well. I look forward to videos like this. Not only informative, but lots of fun! I also love your old minis, and I believe some of them are no longer available. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I'm always excited to hear about your campaign prep and, of course, the recaps. I am not big on watching actual plays. However, listening to a DM or player recount the session with what stood out for them gets me excited. Thanks for sharing, Prof. DM
Very cool! I can definitely feel the tension mounting as the fluff starts hitting the fan.
It was an intense ending for sure. Please share.
Great video, PDM - really inspiring!! I'm still working on distilling scenarios down to 2 facing pages. I try and divide my sessions into 2 or 3 acts, and I'll have 2 pagers for each of those acts. So the game still runs smoothly and I've got the information I need with almost no page turns or searching. It's definitely a great way to know the ins & outs of an adventure.
I love when you bring out the Notebook Professor. The campaign videos are so much fun. The Veiled Society and Caves of Carnage are epic. Carry on Professor.
Working in the notebook again shortly. Game this Saturday.
I like the way you mix in advice and retelling of the way you prepped alongside a recounting of the events as they played out. Your reworking of the adventure into a two- page spread is genius in the way it guarantees you'll internalize and understand the story components, and eliminating repeated page- flipping is even better than removing shoe leather! Great video, Professor DM!
I appreciate that!
Incredibly cinematic, well done Professor. The emphasis on a running clock really generates dramatic tension.
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it. Timers rock!
Your imagination and enthusiasm are infectious! Videos like this keep me learning, keep me fresh, and make me a better DM. This is why I always check your channel first - there is always something there, whether current or a past upload, that is interesting and helpful. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind words. If you could share, I'd appreciate it.
This is why i love you and your work. Youre a gift for us RPG enthusiasts and crafters.
More crafting to come. you should see my crafting desk right now. What I am working on will change the game as much as UDT. Stay tuned.
Wow, what an episode. Never a dull moment in PDM's games! Only thing that could make it better would be seeing all the behind the scenes. Where you take that book, 70+ pages, and convert it to two pages. A detailed discussion on that would be amazing.
I guess playing in the game/watching it would be up there as well. Looking forward to more in-depth tips for us non patreon supporters.
I'll do my best.
Just finished my campaign in Middenheim two months ago. Was supposed to go for 12 sessions but we spend well over a year there. Such a rich setting. All because you advised Power behind the Throne in your video.
So thanks!
Love that module. Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
This adventure sounds great. The Three Musketeers, in movies, book, cartoons, has been a part of my life as a child and adult. A mashup RPG that lets me revisit it? Awesome!
Fantastic breakdown of your game prof! You have inspired me to try a few things with my table.
Thanks for commenting!
I love these kinds of videos. Here’s hoping the algorithm is kind.
Also, you’ve inspired me to re-work some of the episodes from the Prince Valiant Storytelling Game into semi-linked encounters/adventures for my next campaign.
Thanks for the video, great production values! Really exciting to follow along with your campaign and how you GM.
Damn! That was incredibly exciting even just having you tell it as a GM relaying how the scenario played out. I loved this.
Thank you for the picture of your notebook. One thing I always struggle with as a game master is how to prepare notes. I’d definitely like more videos on how to prep.
My sister laughs at my notebooks. Se says they're like a beautiful mind! If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Man that sounds awesome. i love your campaign/game videos the most! Definitely checking out Terror in the Streets.
Awesome video!
Terror in the Streets is an amazing adventure. Kelvin Green's adventure writing is excellent.
It sure is! Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
That's very kind, thank you. ❤
I love the two-page spread. Not sure I can pull it off, but in all love it!
Practice! You can do it!
After watching pretty much everything on your channel I love this style of campaign update and hope you do more. I still think your veiled society recap is your best work of this kind!
Loved those adventures. Share if you can.
Great stuff, your 2 page spread method is so useful. I imagine there's a skill to it, deconstructing an adventure to the right degree, knowing which content is essential. I also appreciated your insights into how you use ICRPG approaches when running your games.
I read Terror in the Streets a couple of weeks ago so this is perfect timing. Would love to see more content like this.
Thanks for sharing!
Damn! That was awesome. Would love to see more of those planning pages. That was so useful to see.
Commenting to feed the algorithm as well to keep your creative content above the fray. I love the idea of boiling a scenario down to a page or two that you’ve essentially internalized so that you can maintain eye contact with your players. Real interaction between the DM and players is some great advice here. Thanks for mentioning.
Glad you found it helpful. If you could share I'd appreciate it.
I always appreciate your videos there's always something to learn in them, even if I don't agree with all of your ideas you'll often link to other creators ideas and I can use that.
This video shows that one of the key things a DM needs is a firm understanding of their world, or at least the location where the scenario takes place. A good map helps. Once you have that, the actual adventure can be two pages of notes. You can run a campaign for years with just a good map and a vision of the game world. You don’t need dozens of pages of world building. In fact, it often works out better if you make things up on the fly - just write them down.
Great content! I'm continually pushing myself to create interesting encounters and adventures, and it's fun to hear how you distilled this down to its basics without oversimplifying. I'm also a huge fan of Runehammer and Brandish's work, so it was nice to see his podcast get a highlight, too!
He's great. He's featured in an upcoming video. Keep your eyes out for it.
What a great video - excellent advise, great inspiration and a compelling story - love it - thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for these campaign and how-to videos. As a forever GM, they're inspirational as well as providing new tricks of the trade I hadn't considered. Please keep making these kinds of videos. Absolutely fantastic stuff.
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Another banger!! You sure know how to do it Professor! Many thanks for the ceaseless entertainment!
Awesome timing! I'll be running this as my next adventure!
and FIY I love all the videos you make.
Very inspiring. One thing I am trying to emulate from your videos is encouraging epic moments from the scenario and the characters choices, not what is on their charactersheet that they can do x times per short rest.
Go for it! If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I first DM'ed in the 80's. This is great content. Thanks. I'm always looking to improve.
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Right now, we are playing like this: my new DM does on Friday, I DM on Saturdays (i am just starting) and party guy DMs on Sundays... Since I was fired for stupid, I got the entire weekend now
Nice! Although I hope you get a better job soon!
@@DUNGEONCRAFT1 me too
My last 3 adventures have been adaptations of adventures you've posted, Professor, and my players have loved it! Session prep is down to a few hours, less stress on the DM, faster-paced games, and more enjoyment around the table. Looking forward to adding this one as well when the timing's right! Thanks for helping us all level up the Craft!
My players loved this adventure. If you could share the video I'd appreciate it.
Now THIS is the kind of game I aspire to run. Or to get to play, even better!
Thank you. Please share the video.
Finally! I was starving for some of yours campaing prep videos!
Thank you for this content professor!
Thank YOU for watching!
Great video. Liked the callout to the Shoe Leather episode, my favorite DM advice video. The campaign videos are on another level though. Thanks for the effort.
I love the shoe leather video, too! Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thank you Professor DM for another great video!
Thanks!
Watched, liked and shared. This sort of video gives me the best takeaway I can get from an RPG channel: ideas and motivation to run more games. Thank you for all the work you put into it.
Thanks for the kind words and for sharing!
Amazing video! Your ability to distil such a complex adventure into just 2 pages is next level! I aspire to DM an adventure as well as you sone day!
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share., I'd appreciate it.
makes the wait to get back into Malevelon Creek that much better; thank you for all the vids you've made man, genuinely.
I really enjoy this kind fo video, thanks for sharing your experience.
May all your rolls be 20!
Yours, too! Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Great episode. Love these prep videos. Reinvigorates me for my prepping which of late had felt more like homework than fun. Thanks professor
Great to hear! Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
This played out like an action movie! I loved the intro and the advice is hugely helpful. Definitely inspired to make my campaigns work with many moving parts from here-on. Thank you for your work on this!
Stellar episode with both narrative and practical advice!
Great video, nice to see how much carnage that can come from timers!
Gotta have a timer! Share the video if you can.
Highly anticipated. Professor DM delivers transcendent levels of experience, stage craft, tips, and a story that will keep viewers in suspense. Save to play list.
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
This might be my favorite video yet. This or the recent Orc video. You're killing it!
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
The perfect type of content for my short lunch.
And long lunches. And late-night snacks. And without any food at all.
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I love these types: Caves of Carnage, Deviled Society, and this one.
I used the goblin lair for a zero level funnel to get backup characters. My daughter loved the idea of a funnel, so the next campaign is using the carnival to get basic equipment. Thanks for the inspiration.
When they go to a city I'll have to rewatch Reviled Society.
Thank you so much. Reviled Society was a lot of fun to play.
You have the best TTRPG channel on UA-cam! Thank you for the upload and all the time you spent entertaining us and your players
Thank you.
If only for the sake of the algorithm...I have nothing inciteful to add, I just want to see more like this from the Professor!
Thank you so much.
Love the game prep and play summary content. Thanks for these!
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
The dice really enhanced the story in this game. On the cusp of death, to be able to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
Sounds like an amazing session.
Now this is some serious grimdark.
Awesome. This is great advice for all DMs, be they be newbs or veterans.
Thanks so much!
This was simply fantastic, and a source of inspiration! Thanks for all your videos, Professor, and keep involving Deathbringer for those final puns :D
Deathbringer would agree. Share if you can.
This was truly epic, thank you so much for sharing and giving us all a lot of inspiration 😊
You are so welcome! If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Another cool video by the Professor. I need to watch it again and take notes about those subplots. The Three clue Rule is true. I've used it recently with my players and lucky I did, They finally caught a plot hook on the third and final clue. Good stuff from this guy. How about some more crafting videos?
Sounds like fun. To me, those texts the next day feel like a live audience calling "encore!"
Was a blast. Please share.
You had me gripped with the story at the end there Professor. Great video (and I'll add that these are my favourite types of videos also).
Thank you!
Great video! And shared on Facebook to show friends what makes TTRPG so great.
Thanks!
That description was epic! I felt my blood pumping just listening to the events unfold! I love your alternate climactic endings as well. Rediscovered some of your older UDT videos...bring back the beard! 😁
Fantastic video, Professor. Love to see these gorgeous miniature shots. Will definitely be using the adventure in my upcoming mini-campaign!
As an American living in France, the unrest die is accurate. Also role if a local or national sports team wins.
Viva la France!
With his seasoned expertise and infectious enthusiasm, Professor DM delivers an unforgettable experience that will ignite your imagination and elevate your tabletop roleplaying sessions to new heights. Thank you for the solid advice.
Thank YOU for taking the time to watch it!
Very nice pro-level show! Your enthusiasm is infectious... in a good way.
Thanks. Share the video if you can.
What a wonderful video! Thanks for sharing this with your UA-cam fans!
Thank you for taking the time to comment.
My contribution to the all mighty algorithm. Also wow that was a top notch video professor! Love your GM notebook layout.
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Great tips and a fun walkthrough. Good job!
Actually, that peak inside the notebook was probably the best part of the video for me. I also liked the idea of having a B-team that you use as replacement PC's. Great advice.
Commenting for the algorithm. Really enjoy these types of videos. I've been reading some Gothic/Romance style stories of late and this really fits in that kind of setting! Dark, gritty and downright dirty.
Love the Warhammer Fantasy setting too, I've been thinking of starting a campaign there.
My players have used it for almost 30 years. Share the video if you can.
Also, to feed the algorithm. But mainly... good bless you! what an amazing video! My mind is just blown away! This one is pure gold!
Thank you very much. This is my FAR my least viewed video of the last 10. If you could share it with your friends and on different FB and Reddit groups, it would be helpful.
I love this type of videos where you share your experience as a GM
Maybe it will be a future video...... Share the video if you can.
This is pretty good. Love all the sub plot stuff and the layout book. Definitely taking notes.
Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
It is helpful to write/rewrite plot and relevant info in tearse notes. I find it helps to sort things out and in a sense load it to memory.
Do it as a player as well so you know you spells abilities ect.
It certainly is. Thanks for the kind words. If you could share, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I loved this. Thank you very much for sharing. Your style of delivery made it very easy to listen and watch. Excellent!
Share the video if you can.
