A great resource that I kept referring to when getting ready to run and had on hand during early sessions of Rime of the Frostmaiden.

Some really useful advice on the balance of the different towns, and some suggested tweaks that are useful.

This guide was well worth the asking price to alleviate some of the anxiety involved with preparing for session 1. I was worried that the campaign would clobber my players with enemies that they really shouldn't fight at level 1. The advice in this guide is just what I needed to make sure my players and I have a fun adventure.

The first two chapters of Rime of the Frostmaiden are meant to be an open world sandbox, with quests in chapter 1 ranging from level 1 to level 4. The issue is the players may unknowingly choose a very difficult quest right off the bat. Trull recommends a more level-appropriate scripted campaign path. He also gives advice on how to adjust the quests up or down in difficulty to match the character's current level. The guide also includes a bit more flavor for existing content. He gives additional bits of NPC dialog, area descriptions, and some fun (as in non-combat) magical items to discover.

Fantastic. Honestly, just the suggested start is worth the $3. Saved me so much time prepping and it feels like it should be an official companion. The Icewind Dale: RotF is a great adventure with a lot of potential but its very open world, and this provides crucial guidance for the busy DM. I love the additions of "side intrigue" that can spawn further quests, and I look forward to work on this!
