the bullywugs sound like the most french thing ever. crown new king, throw revolution next tuesday, kill king repeat. what makes it even funnier is the hidden joke because you know bullywugs are frogs.
haha its great!
This video made me go pick up the standard copy of this 5e module. I love your series on Curse of Strahd and was trying to find another book to run and you convinced me to get this one.
haha its well worth it in my eyes!
Thanks for doing these videos. They are really useful. I'm running a homebrew campaign and am currently preparing a side adventure where the party needs to go to the Seelie Court. I'm using the Witchlight carnival and some of the other encounters in this book as a way of getting there.
I really like how the hags each have there own unique design and not just the basic green hag look.
for sure! these villains are in a league of their own haha!
I'm starting this campaign this Saturday with my 3 players, I'm looking forward to the high energy and new experience for all of us
Heck yeah!
I was sceptical to begin but it sounds like really good design. Having two main writers likely means there shouldn't be too many gaps that the game master needs to fill. I'm excited for more detail!
heck yeah!
Picked this up for my wife and I started running it last week, ty so much!
thank you, no problem, and hope you have a great campaign!
I'm super excited to run this!
-The Innkeeper
Heck yeah!
this convinced me, great job!
thank you!
Can you say “Something Wicked This Way Comes.” From Ray Bradbury. Sounds fun to me based on a. Great book. Also a movie.
Haha foe sure!
I wasn’t Hyped for this adventure until this video, now I really want to DM it!
haha you should!
It just came out and you already concluded it’s your favorite? :O
this adventure actually leans into 5e's mechanics, which is something most other modules dont do!
Whitchlight Over The Garden Wall?
haha pretty much!
Great Video! How much prep would you say this module takes compared to other modules?
very little compared to some! Many of the encounters are simple reads, the real prep comes in the form of knowing how your players tend to interact with certain situations, because roleplay can be all over the place haha!
@@NoFunAllowed Good to know thanks!
Nice review, M8!
thank you so much!
I’m going to run this as a first time 5th edition DM, I love the fey and the no combat just makes me wanna try it out
heck yeah!
Running this as a first time DM soon!
Me and my family are going on a vacation and I'm gonna be running this as a first time DM, wish me luck!
I’m running a homebrew campaign, characters are lvl 5. Bought this adventure to see if I can tweak it slightly and have it as a (large) sidequest/adventure.
it for sure could be a awesome side quest haha!
I've never run a longer campaign (only one-shots) and I was interested in this one, but intimidated. These videos have convinced me to run it! Hopefully will start it next month :)
heck yeah!
I love the Jabberwock in A Red & Pleasant Land, but I'm skipping on Furies & Fairies.
Haha blame thundercats!
Lol I misread it as "Furries" and Fairies.
I got the alt copy, and it's gorgeous looking. I'm running a custom game for a group of entirely new players, and one of them funny enough wrote a back-story where she was raised by a group of traveling carnival folk (That sail from destination to destination)---so it's going to be a blast introduce the characters to this module! Great review mate. Thanks for the insight into the module, looking forward to reading and running it.
awesome stuff!
Great coverage, as always! I’m running RotFM at the moment, leaning heavily on your guides for that. Am thinking WBtWL will be a nice change after all that survival horror!
heck yeah!
This is very much the position I am in. I watch all of his videos for Rime, and I always have a takeaway.
Can agree, watch every video of named locations before running them. Top notch stuff
This is exactly what myself and my group is doing! RotFM is my first campaign ever DM’ing and our group is nearing Ythryn and a year playing. We’ve already decided to do Witchlight next
I'm considering getting this book, though just for the fey wild setting ideas as my current campaign has touched on the fey wild and I have a plot that will take my players back into the fey wild. I know its a module and not a setting book, but would you recommend it as a good resource on the setting?
I would say if you are looking for a true source for making fey content, there is a supplement of the DMs guild for it. This book is more about Prismeer and about the zany encounters here, which can absolutely be mined for good content!
I just got my special edition cover and I'm loving this book as I read through it!
How long do you estimate it would take to run this adventure, start to finish, assuming a standard session a week?
I would estimate around 25-35 sessions!
I’m going to attempt to do it under 15 by railroading and trimming a bit and trying to keep each area to only 3 session each with no going back ever.
I love this adventure also , thanks once more for another fun video, I look forward to see more vids as you take us through this adventure 🍄🧚🏽♂️🧙🏻🐉
heck yeah!
i'm going to be running this module as my first ever time dming !!! so excited... i've been wanting to do something involving the feywild for a long time so this coming out now is just perfect !!
heck yeah!this campaign is great!
I think this will be pretty fun for a group of new players, I'll probably plug it after their current starting arc.
I will have to look into scaling the encounters up (the PCs will likely be at lvl 5) and tie it to a backstory arc (2 characters have their close ones MIA).
Thanks so much for this guide ! I'll watch the whole series. A fellow DM offered me this book (the normal version I guess) and it's in VO. Even though my understanding of English is quite decent, it's still not my primary language and it helps so much to have someone doing a review so that I can focus on the preparation chapter after chapter (I've always found it hard to read everything beforehand anyway). I'm so happy this campaign exists (specially the non combat options) and I'm thrilled to discover it with your videos as a support.
One of the hooks that I am using is the Green knight from celtic mythos. Each party member had played some kind of game with him. And now are waiting for him to make his turn.
Old dm, I am excited to try this campaign this weekend.!
its a blast!
@@NoFunAllowed I am excited! Thx for the response.
Thanks Trevor.
I'm hyped for the feywild stuff
Heck yeah me too!
Thanks for the video! Still waiting here in Switzerland for the official release. Do you think, it's possible to shrink each of the five chapters into a one-shot session? I'm planning to run it for people who have not played D&D yet. So about five sessions or so would be fine for them.
it absolutely is possible! If you just skip right to the hags lair its an easy and fun 1 shot encounter!
Great Vid!
I was on the fence about this module, and your review definitely helped. Thank you!
PS - bonus points for Baby Yoda!
haha thank you!
I'm starting this adventure soon with a lvl 12 party. With so much RP in it, it doesn't look like I will have to do a heap of modification for it.
For sure, but that being said, some spells could certainly throw things through a loop haha!
Subscribed. Great video super informative. Bought on dnd beyond.
thank you! stay tuned for guides on the adventure!
Hey, some settings just speak to you. Glad you found that in WBtW!
heck yeah!
fml im gonna be a PC in this so imma head out
Haha no spoilers!
Dang, was hoping for more elaboration on the playable races. Oh whale.
there are fairy and harengone! the fairy has innate spellcasting and the rabbitfolk has a big jump haha! nothing too crazy, but plenty great for thematics!
@@NoFunAllowed yeah.. thats easy to tell.
This adventure is pretty weak.
to each their own!
Thank you and have a nice day 👍👍👍🌞
thank you and you have a nice day as well haha!
I just started a one player campaign that opens in the Fey. The player was slightly freaked out by how disorienting I had it be.
I wasn't that interested in this one, but you have me nearly convinced to pick this up.
Do you have any affiliate links that you get a kickback on?
haha i wish!
Great review
thank you so much!
What are all the new monsters in this book?
Harengon, Brigganock, and Jabberwocks oh my haha!
@@NoFunAllowed Only three? I thought it would have a lot of new monsters?
@@wesleyvalk9129 haha oh theres plenty more!
@@NoFunAllowed Is there a Gray Jester in there?
@@wesleyvalk9129 I dont see it!
Sounds like a cool adventure book
it absolutely is haha!
My lgs has the limited edition right now. They wouldn't let anyone buy it yesterday. So I will pick it up today. I'm also saving up for the beetle and Grimm edition, halfway there!!!
Awesome!
The release day is today. 9/21/21. My LGS allow us to preorder but not picks up till today.
I have major problems with it. You know how in Tolkien's Middle Earth Morgoth can't make anything original, he can only pervert the works of others? I'm seeing a lot of Morgoth in Chris Perkins. The use of Kelek, Warduke, Zarak, Strongheart, Elkhorn, Mercion, Molliver, Ringlerun? Morgoth move. It's about Tasha? Morgoth move. And why demons in a feywild setting? Yes, there is a lot of original material but I don't see the above as anything positive. What happened to creating original material? Oh, and it is an adventure for the party to free an evil archwizard (Tasha)? What happened to being heroes?
Haha better the evils you know than the ones you dont!
