Post #6 takes us to the Thornwastes and the Ghostlord, and in Post #7 we return to Brindol for the penultimate battle of the campaign. Post #5 reviews Rhest, with an emphasis on updating the special monsters of this adventure to the 5th edition rules. Post #4 looks at the first arc of the campaign up to the Skull Gorge Bridge and the first of the dragons. Post #3 discusses common advice for running the adventure as well as advice on adapting it to work with 5th edition campaign settings and adventures. Post #2 gives general information on the campaign, including updating the stats of the commonly found antagonists to 5th Edition. I will be following the general outline of the campaign for this guide. Swordheart’s Red Handbook of Doom: !-WIP-PEACH!ĪslanCross’s Red Hand of Doom Campaign Diary: There’s a lot of other material available, and I refer you to the Red Handbook of Doom for further information. I’ve found the following links particularly useful in shaping my thinking about the adventure.
Since I can rely on that work, I’ll be focusing on issues specific to the rules and fluff for 5th edition, such as using the Red Hand of Doom alongside other published 5e adventure campaigns. Note that Swordheart’s work still has some great advice on the fluff and RP for this module and I would refer the reader there for general discussion. Following this excellent example, I hope that other DMs and players will contribute ideas and improvements to this guide going forward. That handbook is still active thanks to an open invitation to comment and improve on the guide. This guide is largely inspired by Swordheart’s Red Handbook of Doom elsewhere on this site. It’s my hope that this will be a valuable resource for DMs in one of the most popular editions of the game to date. You can still find games and guides for 3.5 edition, but there’s a gap in updating this classic module for the fifth edition of the game.
There are multiple guides and adventure journals on this site, and DnD celebrity Matt Colville lists it as one of his go-tos for mid-level campaigns. The Red Hand of Doom is widely considered to be one of the top tier adventures in the DnD canon. A 5e Conversion Guide for The Red Hand of Doom
