is it safe to assume that the kenku's name is never for the same reason that his surname might be more?

lightning graciously granted me early access to his fence model, so I could do a test build.... Here's the results. Pretty awesome - only some minor feedback, so the final set will be even awesomer. Consider joining the patreon.

Very cool. Did you bring the scenery broken down, or already put together? Granted, you have more experience setting up, but for a one-evening adventure, this looks quite involved on your end

Very cool. Did you bring the scenery broken down, or already put together? Granted, you have more experience setting up, but for a one-evening adventure, this looks quite involved on your end This was a 2-hour run - and here's how it worked mechanically... The buildings are all solid build (the Church is 3 pieces). There was one FDG two-part tree, but all the rest was fold-flat. Scene changing goes quickly because I have everyone participate in the construction. I moved from the town scene to the forest by simply setting aside the clear polycarbonate that the buildings, petting zoo, and NPCs were sitting on. Changed backdrop (which was sitting behind the starting backdrop) and the map. Then I got out the fold-flat trees and the lichen and said "You get to play with my toys, please put the trees where you see trees on the map and these bushes too." I built and placed the WWG backdrop "wall" of trees while they did the slotted and fold-flat adapted trees and such. When they were sill working, I moved a few things around for visibility and balance. That took 5-10 minutes tops. For the final scene, I quickly scooped off the trees/lichen to the sides, flipped the map to the other side, built my 3-piece fold-flat Ogre house kitbash and had them help me replace the trees. I put the large FDG tree in the center (there was a trap there) and the cart. That took less than 5 minutes. So - the answer is planning, practice, and audience participation. :-) I found having the group "do" the builds real-time leads to better "investment" in the terrain - they know the interesting places, because they built them!

Very nicely managed. When I have gone to gaming 'conventions', more like a meet really, it seems that folks lose interest quickly. By creating 'investment' and 'ownership', you are loading the dice in favor of a great game.
Well played

Game resumed - though they are playing through "The Tyranny of Dragons" - I'm running them through an abbreviated "Waterdeep - Dragon Heist" as part of the story... It's a good chance to use my new Honorable Knight Walking Statue. And experiement with using Terraclips to build the Yawning Portal...

Okay, I still need to figure out all the junk they monkeyed with on Firefox. I can see it on Chrome. I don't really like Chrome or the data-mining that Google is so successful at, but it at least works with PostImage and allows you to see things blocked by Firefox.
