A great review of a great adventure. I have been running this adventure using Fantasy Grounds (virtual tabletop software) and it’s been a blast. I had to do what you did in regard to the recreating the maps but it has been worth it. Keep it up!
Found your show while seeing who else was in the “gaming” section hear at Podbean. You’re making me miss my days playing DnD with “the guys”. My wife (the elf of TheElfandDwarf) run off and on a campaign that’s been going for 3 years but only playing once every 1.30 months.
Great review of the book. I’ve been running the original Ravenloft module since 6th grade and am excited to hear it got a face lift for 3.5. I would have liked to hear more comments about how well it runs and where players are likely to struggle (ie tips for DMing it) but I guess we need to give you time to run it first.
Keep ‘em coming, I’ve sub’d to your feed.

Those maps you mention you make for the adventure and stuff, where are they, thanks.

Sorry it took me so long to notice this comment. The file with the maps is a pdf format and it is in the post immediately after this post with the review. If you’re having trouble getting it shoot me an email (thetomeshow AT gmail DOT com) and I’ll email it to you as an attachment.
Thanks for the podcast. listened to the tome on Ravenloft. I couldn’t find the maps you spoke of in the game. can you give me a link to it.
thanks so much david
i just finished your tome, and as I said will be running expedition to castle ravenloft. Very good review. I am very interested in playing a pbem game if you have one coming up. thanks much. david
Hey, thanks for the message (wow, this episode was from ages ago, I’m glad you liked it).
I’ll try and figure out where the maps are at, it might be in a different post.
Unfortunately the PBEM game died off. Honestly since this episode was recorded most of my PBEM activity has slowed down to a crawl. I don’t run any games anymore and I only play in a handful of PBEM games. Turns out that making the show as good as I can takes up most of my hobby time so those games had to take a backseat.
Thanks for your interest, however, and if I figure out where the Ravenloft maps got to I’ll let you know (or if you email me I’ll just email them to you…again, if I find them).
