    I'm running my first campaign ever with Ghosts of Saltmarsh, and I'm excited to watch this series to get my head in the right place! Even though I have the book, it is really helpful to see all the info presented visually. Thanks for putting in all the effort, as it's very much appreciated :)

    • @HoodedKobold

      I will be the first to say this series is not a replacement for reading the book, I still highly recommend reading the book, this is like the supplemental material to help reinforce or expand on different parts of the book, lol. I’m glad you like the series and I hope it helps you and your table have some awesome adventures.

    This is still an extremely useful resource - I suck at studying these huge adventures, having it presented like this is PERFECT for my stupid brain. THANKS!!!!!

      Hey, a bit late to the party, since you left this comment more than a year ago, but I wanted to say the following - Don't call your brain stupid, whether it is a joke or not. Every brain has its, well, preference on what is the most efficient way to memorize and learn new things. Some people prefer reading, some listening, some like different kinds of visual learning (images, videos, mind maps), and some like a combination of these. So, don't be harsh to yourself because you don't respond perfectly to one of these techniques. The fact that you were/are DMing already means that you have a very cool brain. Take care 💪🏻

    Thanks a bunch for this entire video series. I started this campaign recently (converting to a GURPS playgroup no less), and it's been a huge help in my own prep. Your suggestions for improvements to various plot holes or quests are very welcome.

    Is that the actual map of Saltmarsh? It has about 50 houses plus the various keyed locations. Must be awfully cramped in those buildings for the guard/militia alone, let alone all the miners, dock workers, etc.

    @MrNesgamefreak Před 2 lety

    Great content and very informative! My only notes are that it is very hard to hear your voice over the music and I had to max out my volume. The other note is that I think you are talking too fast and it would be helpful to slow it down a bit so that people could follow. Otherwise, keep up the great work!

    Not to be poo pooing this but how can a mine exist in a wet lands marsh and that near the sea? Wouldn't the the general water table be a major hindrance to such activities? And how did they discover the ore in the first place? I dig a hole 6 foot deep* fills with water* In Waterdeep( as example)? No. I just thought this off the top of my head. I like the idea but really stretches the suspension of disbelief a bit too much. Instead, how bout a salt gathering operation instead or sugar cane farming for rum distillation. 2 cents..Other than that, nice way you added pics and music.
