The Forgotten Realms Map is terrible.

1/5

The PDF containing part of the Forgotten Realms poster map is a photograph of a wrinkled map pulled from a printed issue of the magazine.


4/5

As a ravenloft DM, this is a pretty amazing issue. The article on death gods is interesting, and the "plots and schemes" article amazing for people who like to run sort of CSI: Mordentshire (shall we call it that? ;) ). Unhallowed Ground and Tag team terror presented some pretty good suggestions. The DM's Toolbox had great suggestions for character development, but I was a little disappointed by the Dungeoncraft. I was hoping more for a stronghold builder's sort of supplement.

Great for gothic horror campaigns though, overall.
