Pro RPG Audio: Terror
Publisher: Plate Mail Games

A tense horror track including a creepy "beating heart" sound which could be cheezy but I find really effective during play- when played at a "background music volume" with the distraction of actually playing a RPG, the subconscious psychological effect of the heartbeat is actually pretty profound. This is one of the tracks I use in a generic horror background playlist for my Curse of Strahd campaign, and this track seems to elicit a particularly satisfying response from my players when it cycles through.

An amazing tension track for a horror-themed campaign or location. I keep this in a generic background playlist for my Curse of Stahd campaign, and while some of the other tracks might be more evocative of Ravenloft as a setting, I notice my players actually getting a little more nervous and tense when this particular track is playing in the background.

Barovia Hand Drawn Maps
Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild

A great CoS supplement and player handout. Very beautiful and evocative, with enough detail to be useful and help the players to plan their journeys, but enough "fuzziness" to keep them guessing about exact travel times and terrain.

Since the fold-out Map that comes with CoS is the DM version (a HUGE pet peeve of mine actually- it is a beautiful map, but is full of spoilers for the players, and too big for the DM to reference behind the DM screen, so who exactly is the map for?), this is a great alternative, and the type of map which would make sense for Ismark or another "average Barovian" to have access to and be able to share with the PCs during play. I really like it, and think it is a wonderful value for the cost.

Thanks a ton for the review! To tell you the truth, all of your reasons were the same exact reasons I drew it in the first place. I am very glad this worked out for y'all.

Barovian Nights - 101 Ravenloft Encounters

A great, detailed enounter list for Curse of Strahd or other Ravenloft compaigns. There is also plenty of bonus short suppliments in the back- I won't use all of them, but they are neat little single-page ideas you can hand-pick and use to personalize your campaign.

The encounters themselves seem to be a good mix of the dangerous, comical, creepy, and thematic. The only thing I would have requested additonal is some sort of CR range or other rough "danger guide" for the combat encounters, just to make it easier to skip or drop in warning signs early for exceptionally dangerous encounters when rolling on the fly. Still, a great, professional supplement, and in my opinion good value for the money.

D&D 5e Player Cheet Sheet

A great, simple handout for all players, especially newer players. I notice my players referencing it often during play, and as a DM I've even saved myself a fair bit of time in page-flipping when I blank on something simple. A great resource, and in my opinion very much worth the money.

Pro RPG Audio: Campfire

This is a simple but effective audio background, complete with crackling fire, light wind, and some general nature-type sounds. Quickly switching to the campfire audio during camping sequences or fire-side NPC chats seems to encourage PC engagement, and I've found there's something primal about the sound of a crackling fire which tends to encourage juicy IC conversations and OC strategizing from my players. In my opinion this track is very much worth the money, and really helps punch up and draw players out during camping scenes which otherwise tend to be glossed over.

I'm a huge fan of Plate Mail games audio in general. This particular track worked really well- I used it as the audio background for woodland travel in my current Curse of Strahd game, and it really seemed to add tension and texture for my players, making some of the less engaging travel sequences feel more dangerous and alive, and I believed it helped encourage good roleplay.
