Merry Christmas from our excited kitteh Ridley to all of the new friends and acquaintences here on Bluesky.

This was a fun Christmas gift. My wife is supporting my BECMI #DnD fixation, though she's one of the players, so the way I see it, it's a gift for her too. Right? I'm really looking forward to running these adventures.

I have added to my BECMI #DnD collection once again. I got PDFs of all the BECMI books, but I really missed having an actual book in my hand, so the local hobby shop gave me a good deal. The Expert book is very well used, but that's ok. I just needed the book.

WotC could have an entire market by cranking out Mystara as its own separate 80/90s anime themed fantasy setting, but noo...

I use the Lazy DM Session Prep method. I prepare for the most likely scenes, dungeon sections or adventuring areas, a list of NPCs, secrets and rumors, and one or two maps that have all needed info, such as enemy stats, treasure, secrets, tricks or traps, similar to Professor DM.

After a few weeks away, I'm finally back behind the #DnD DM screen. Tonight will be our first session with full BECMI rules. The players will enter the dangerous Orc Lair of cave B. You can see my one page dungeon prep sheet that has everything I need. I technically don't need the module book.

The Duchy of Karameikos in the Mystara setting is roughly the same size and similar shape of the state of Ohio. Lawrence Schick & Tom Moldvay were college students in Ohio at the time they started developing what would become Mystara. Coincidence? What say the historians? @bruceheard.bsky.social?

Expanded Dungeon Stocking Table Coming Along! This uses *both* d6s used for Room Stocking in B/X (that Treasure one is often wasted!) Referencing a lot of my other Tables and providing *prompts* as an Inspiration Tool. I can already see a few more d100s I might need to whip up! 😅
