A Brief Update on Curse of Strahd: Reloaded
Added 2024-03-10 16:30:00 +0000 UTCHey all, and apologies for the long period of radio silence.
First - Arc P: Dinner with the Devil is nearly finished. I just need to wrap up writing the final combat (yes, there will be some (optional) combat) and write up the arc outtro, and it'll be finished.
Unfortunately, version 2.0.7 won't quite be ready for publication once Dinner is done. I also need to make a number of revisions to Arc L: The Fallen Abbey and Arc M: The Den of Wolves to increase player agency, decrease Ezmerelda's role, and make a few narrative tweaks. And, of course, once that's done, I'll need to make the usual suite of fixes, edits, and updates to existing published arcs. All in all, I estimate I have about another 10-14 days' worth of work to get the guide ready for the next update.
The bad news is that I sprained my ankle pretty badly about a week and a half ago, and haven't been able to do any work since. I'm hopeful that I'm on the road to recovery right now, but I'm pessimistically expecting the next update to be published around the end of March.
Apologies for the delays, and thanks very much for your patience—I'm excited to start moving into the end of Act III and the endgame of Acts IV/V beyond, so stay tuned :)
Cheers,
Dragna

Thanks Courtney! You just made my night, haha. Best of wishes with the campaign, and welcome to DMing! You're in for an unforgettable ride :) (PS: The ankle is healing just fine, thank you!)

2024-04-02 22:05:25 +0000 UTCI hope your recovery is going well! I just wanted to drop a comment to say I’m blown away by how detailed this is. I stumbled across Reloaded almost by accident (relatively new DM, was looking for tips to balance Strahd for 2-3 players) and this is everything I could have possibly wanted and more. Ive binge-read all the history, lore, running the adventure, etc. and am more excited to run this version of Strahd than any campaign I’ve set up so far. So amazing!

2024-04-01 23:57:26 +0000 UTCI hope for a fast recovery! I've been following your work for what seems like forever now and love your dedication! I am patiently waiting for the "Player Primer" to be written out so I can run CoS again 😁 The wait is worth it as far as I am concerned.
