Edit, 2013: All chapters can now be ordered by sending me a personal message. Use the side panel next to my name to send me a PM with the e-mail address to which I should send the adventures. We will also send links to maps and the final Campaign Guide.
Thanks!
I requested the first adventure about a month ago.... can't wait to play it
A friend of mine is trying to organize a local con of our own. The plan is to run various gaming systems through out the day. I volunteered to run Gamma World and or 4e Dark Sun. It would be great to have an Ashes of Athas adventure.
They both really liked the concept and saw you all being excited and playing a lot of Ashes of Athas, so they went forward with expanding play options.
We will continue to be motivated by the convention play. We will write for that type of event/atmosphere/etc. In our minds, that's the coolest place to play AoA. But, we will try to also address home play within the adventures (for example, instructing DMs that in home play they can explore a scene longer).
Also, a sneak peak for chapter 2. The first two adventures will feature a mix of RP, investigation, and (of course) combat. The third in the series will feel like a battle interactive. Expect a strong challenge with a lot of exciting combat and some new rules never before attempted... At Origins and Gen Con we will stress that feel in ways that home play likely can't easily replicate.
Just got the first adventure stuff in my email, looking forward to running my home game group through this.
Sweet!
We won't be making further changes to the adventures, but we do look forward to still learning from your feedback. Please check in on the forums and let us know how it all goes for you.
Dave reports more than 100 adventure requests so far, which was a lot more than I expected! Thanks, folks!
Now back to work...
(So this may be entirely too late)
My group spent Chapter One being chased all over Athas by
...um... The Enemy. Now I want to know:(a) how did They get our number, and
(b) we figured out who They are (part 3), how can we get Their number in return?
Hopefully part/all of Chapter Three can involve taking care of this.
Looking forward to more Ashes of Athas tomorrow!
Huge thanks go to Alpha and the Baldman.
Do consider running a small gameday. The adventures fit nicely into one day of gaming. DMs get credit for running (or can replay), which should make organizing a con or gameday easier.
Let us know how you like Chapter 2.
You asked for it.
On second thought: Extensive discussion coming soon on the AoA forums.
We did better by role-playing the negotiations than our characters could have done at skill checks (because the highest Diplomacy/Bluff/Intimidate rating we had was a +5). Good thing the pro-slavery speech was delivered from behind a desk and some bodyguards, not into the face of our Escaped Slave character!
Edit: One of the other players at our table wanted to pop his Daily on the speech-ifier.
The town wall
Show
- In-game reality check: Why would you build a town wall only 15 feet high, when the known enemies who you want to keep out, can jump 20 feet straight up? Did the architect actually get paid for his work?!
Suggested fix: would-be jumpers have to be part-way up a ladder; this encourages the PCs to pull ladder shenannigans. (I still want to allow a STR 20 guy to pull the ladder UP on the wall for keeps!)
Edit: I can answer my own question - maybe the architect got paid by House Mercenary, which needs to give raw recruits some experience.

Let's talk more over on the AoA forums, but at the high level:
Spoilers within related to Chapter Two
1) Intended
2) We used the sizes stipulated by canon, in part because those measurements are stated several times in several different sources of both AD&D and 4E. The idea you propose is within the purview of what a DM is instructed to do. Out-of-the-box PC/player thinking is encouraged.
3) Athas isn't fair? It worked well in a couple of playtests and was too strong in one playtest, but we will take Origins feedback into account for further changes. Please write more on the AoA forums. Specifically, was it really a problem, or did it make for a fun challenge?
4) We've had different experiences. 4E is swingy and it isn't uncommon for one table to destroy fight x and have trouble with fight y, and then the next table to have the complete opposite experience. We try to provide a varied enough encounter design that it is unlikely you will have trouble in all encounters or cakewalk all of them. The adventures stipulate the target challenge level and provides the DM ways to meet the target, though it is of course easier for DMs to do so once they have run the adventure at least once.

Kudos to the designers! Looking forward to CH2&3 once out and we get there.
And, anyone who has not yet ordered may want to consider this:
From @AshesofAthas:
Will you be the 150th location to sign-up to run #ashesofathas ? Should happen soon and a surprise to you if you are the one.
With Gen Con we have finished the 2011 story arc and now commence to design 2012!
I know there are difficulties involved, but I think Baldman Games should seriously consider publishing the Ashes of Athas series. After all, it's not like WotC is providing a lot of adventures or supporting their settings. Unless of course they do a complete turn around in the next year.
Kurmudgeon, thanks. We can't publish without going to an OGL model, and that would necessitate stripping out all IP, such as the setting information. It just isn't possible under the current situation. We are very grateful that we can allow home play for a limited time period, so hopefully players and DMs take advantage of those windows.
. Like I said, not like they are giving it much love in the print dept.I really enjoyed this chapter, in part because we finally get a whack at the guys who have been tormenting us since the first combat of AoA1-1.
@Alphastream,
Do the AoA forums have a 'Chapter Three' section? I'm waiting eagerly.
Oh, and your link seems to point to a Druid handbook...
Returning from GenCon, where I played my Dark Sun druid through four modules (whew). Brief thoughts:
- I finally dumped my L1d Lightning Arc power because I never used it. It prones everybody adjacent to the primary targets. That usually meant my allies, due to the prevalence of melee artists in DS and my low initiative modifier.
- My new L1d is Wind Prison, which saw a lot of use (because it is party-friendly). I planted it on one flying skirmisher and watched all his friends fall flat on their faces when he came at us for a flyby attack. In another module, I used it on an immobile attacking tree since it would be perma-CA for everybody.
- Comment from a swarm druid: Are you EVER going to get into beast form?!
Answer: No; Narvik's a controller, not a striker. I'm going to stand back here and cast stuff at the enemy.
- I met paladins on Athas. Deva paladins. Yes, there were two. They said (I didn't check on this myself) that Character Builder let them do it. If they go Demigod ED, the heavens will never be the same.
- I popped my L5d Vine Serpents on one BBEG and missed. But the effect was - as I explained in the local vernacular - "the bad guy is now in a World Wrestling Federation cage match". After that, the melee guys were champing at the bit to get at him.
- That BBEG was also an artillery. I was actually setting up a duel between him on one side and the THREE spellcasters on ours, figuring he would hurt himself (this makes our job go quicker) rather than run (and meet our melee artists) or surrender.
- For flavor purposes, I'm changing Thorn Whip to Chill Wind, because most of my non-at-wills have something to do with the breeze. However I maintain that Thorn Whip is under-rated in this guide. (It should be basic black, not avoid-me purple.) I have really enjoyed using it and recommend it as an out-of-the-box at-will. BTW, if you can manage to be 3 floors up and on a balcony you can get 1d8+mods+1d10 out of Thorn Whip. Pull your victim two squares straight up and drop him. Note that there is no weight limit on what you can pull.
- I got a CRIT with e1 Call Forth the Spirit Pack after delaying my turn until the Warden had a chance to mark all the tough guys in the room. In effect I got 3X-normal damage and bloodied my target in one shot. I thereby fulfilled my pseudo-striker deed for the day. This is my only encounter power that has no breeze attached, but I'm keeping it anyway.
- Call of the Beast did not get as much use here as it did at Origins. (Are you defending the town wall? CotB + end your turn in beast form + Savage Rend = gold. Also good is firing CotB into a crowd that can't get up a ladder to reach you.) I'm keeping it because I can send enemies onto the high-AC defender rather than the injured striker. It's also good if you (and friends) can CotB + slow + push away; the enemies take the damage if they don't attack at all !
- Healing Seed L2u is a cool thing to have around if you get into a grindfest and have used your second wind. I've started just creating the thing at the beginning of every module so it's available when somebody needs healed up. I usually have plenty of healing surges available (but once in a while I get plastered by something).
- Dwarven resistance to Poison was nifty when I got clobbered by an Athasian Minstrel's alpha strike. I still had to make a pair of death saving throws before the Warlord could get over to me, though.
- In one encounter, I surprised the party: I rolled my attacks but missed, then volunteered to take three kamikazes for 16 HP total (they were minions and calculable). I announced that Narvik spent 1 healing surge and went on as if nothing had happened. The non-CON guys were jealous.
So ... the Baldman did a ton of work and now he wants to REST ?! How un-Athas is that?
He must meet the praetor from AoA2-2!Seriously, thanks to him and the rest of the staff. This campaign has been a lot of fun.
and oh ya. The Chapter Three discussion forum has been setup.
I know this is a bit hard on folks. The window for distribution is tight. On the other hand, that is actually WotC being pretty nice about letting us distribute adventures. The original premise of the campaign was no distribution outside of cons, but was relaxed in limited fashion based on people really wanting to run them outside of cons. Further adjustments in 2012 may be possible.
Chapter two is now available for home play from our Adventure Request page. It will be available through December 15th before retiring.
Chapter three will be available for home play after the D&DXP convention (where we will have Chapter 3 and the all new Chapter 4!).
We just chose our authors for Chapter Four, and we have a few return authors as well as new ones. We are really excited about what will be coming out at DDXP and then beyond in 2012!
Chapter One is retired and there is no way to distribute the adventure (please, please, please refrain from any distribution). We enjoy great flexibility in authoring the adventures and I'm thankful for that, but it does mean a limited distribution window. However, we have considered in the future having a way to catch players up. We are also writing each year so it can largely stand on its own if you are just starting.
Should the original adventures be made available I would be interested.
Daniel.
I've just spotted this, but as the first section appears to be retired it seems I'm a bit late...
Should the original adventures be made available I would be interested.
Daniel.
I really don't think earlier chapters will be released. This isn't something we control, and we feel fortunate that we are allowed to distribute them in this limited maner instead of it being solely a con-driven program. In addition, we want players to be roughly on the same page progression-wise.
Chapter 2 can work on its own, especially if you download the summary from the adventure request page and use that as backstory for the PCs.
Chapter 2 will retire Dec 15th, so if you are interested please order the adventures before they retire!
Cheers,
Daniel.
I was approved on 11/21 but haven't received the adventure yet, is there something I need to do before the deadline? Thanks.
I'll prompt Dave. You should not need anything else if you were approved.
Sad that i missed the Chapter One request window
There is a contest on our forums to help create the next Ashes of Athas pregens!
Help us create a list of PCs in the campaign so we can feature your PC in an upcoming adventure!
We are in need of an artist for a very simple drawing of a vehicle that we can place on a battlemap. You will receive credit.
I have a question about how clear our Campaign Guide is regarding character generation and what might cause players to show up with PCs that have elements not allowed in the campaign.
Thanks, and I hope to see you soon at D&DXP!
Teos
I was approved on 11/21 but haven't received the adventure yet, is there something I need to do before the deadline? Thanks.
I'll prompt Dave. You should not need anything else if you were approved.
Still have not received it, I even emailed them directly by replying to my approval email. Am I screwed?

Sadly, I missed out, in similar fashion, way back with the first module. After we missed the initial adventure, I didn't bother to ask for those that came after. I appreciate the effort being made to create and distribute these, even if my group and I slipped through the cracks.
Good luck. Maybe your "pre-retirement approval" will be enough.
I didn't receive it neither. No reply or anything.
Yep. That's what I got-- no response. I actually submitted a second request, thinking I'd done something incorrectly, but got no response to either request.
Such is life. As I said earlier, it's cool that the effort is being made to distribute it. The process isn't perfect, but what is?
I am MASSIVELY behind on this front. Between wife shattering ankle, the holidays, and this little show called D&D Experience I've just not had time to throw at it. Everybody that put their request in will receive Chapter Two.
Hey, that's good news for a lot of folks! We really appreciate the extra effort going into this offer, and we certainly can't complain with what essentially is the Ashes team doing us a huge favor.
I hope your wife is recovering well. Injured ankles are very rough. I've seen a few, being involved in sports.
Thanks so much for the update and everything you have done for the community at large. Best wishes to your wife for a speedy recovery.
Thanks for bearing with us.
Also, we still want to hear from you on the pregen contest (until the 12th, Thursday!) and to hear about your characters. (Links are above)

All cool Dave
I thought it was just the Holiday vacation, but seeing there is even more to it, and that a AoA is doing us a favor, yeah nothing to complaint about. Thanks for the Organization in fact for putting this up.
And Best wishes of recovery for your wife
You can find the file on our downloads page (as well as some new logsheets for Chapter 4).
We hope to have some Heroes of the Elemental Chaos preview content up soon, and will have a way to earn it for those that attend D&DXP! We will also upload the pregens that won the contest when we get a chance... so much to do before D&DXP!
Don't forget to add a Chapter Four section to the AoA forums !
P.S. Waste Not, Want Not: I blew a Nature check to make Survival Days out of a defeated enemy. The enemy was poisonous. Can I make "fugu jerky" as a result? Can I sell some to an Athasian Minstrel / Unwanted Guest?
As for poisonous jerky, that sounds horrible, so I'm sure your DM will allow it. Chef and Jeff's Spiced Jerky is getting a reputation, after all!
Everybody that put their request in will receive Chapter Two.
I don't know if others got their copie, but i still didn't get anything yet.
I don't know if things got out of the way and Dave started to look into it again.
I don't know if others got their copie, but i still didn't get anything yet.
Ditto
Edit: Scratch that, just got it this morning. Thanks guys!
Thanks to the AoA Campaign Staff. I really like the adventure !
That's awesome alphastream. One of my players went to Gen Con and texted me after playing. He said it was pretty kick-@$$.
Hello kurmudgeon.
You contacted me and i tried to reply but your Profile resctrictions prevented me from doing so, saying you only accept messages from friends.
You'll have to Friend me up or loosen your Profile restrictions if you want me to answer you :P
We are hard at work on Chapters 5 and 6. We think you will really enjoy how these chapters set the story up for an exciting PC-led conclusion.
The players in my non-AoA Dark Sun game are about to visit Altaruk, and I would LOVE to be able to use Altaruk info from AoA to integrate them into the city, maybe with an eye toward establishing a background for AoA play. But I missed the window for the Part 1 series when Altaruk is really introduced. Maybe a magic genie will send me the PDFs :P
> the types of organized play you have tried out:
Yes--Yes it does! And I shamefully had to admit that I had not served my time in the Sand attempting to squash evil! Ideally, insectivore psionic evil!
So I went to the Baldman Games pages and tried to request adventure here:
www.baldmangames.com/aoaadvreq/
but got a 404-page not found.
I am able to see the Where to Play page:
www.baldmangames.com/aoawtp/
but nothing seems all that close to me.
I am VERY interested in playing Ashes of Athas--but I am not sure where to start...I do not think Ashes of Athas ran at ORCCON 2012--they did run Living Divine, I think [I spent all my time in Living Forgotten Realms].
I do not see it running any where in Southern California soon--can someone provide advice on how I can quickly jump on board?
I have updated the list of conventions here, since I maintain that thread.
D&D XP in Fort Wayne, IN (Jan 26-29, 2012)
Origins in Columbus, OH (May 30-June 3. 2012)
Gen Con in Indianapolis, IN (August 16-19. 2012)
Genghis Con in Denver, CO (Feb 16-19, 2012)
ConnCon in (March 16-18, 2012)
GameStorm in Portland, OR (March 22-25, 2012)
SynDCon in Washington, DC (TBD)
ComicPalooza in Houston, TX (May 25-27, 2012)
OwlCon in Houston, TX (February 3-5, 2012)
There may be additional ones. If anyone mentions them to me, I will update the list.
In addition, Chapter 3 will be available for download in the near future. There is an in-character summary of Chapter 1 available on the Ashes site. If someone wants to write a version for Chapter Two, we could post that as well. Chapter 3 ends the 2011 story arc.
Chapter 4 premiered at D&DXP and will be at Origins. While the story does pick up where Chapter 3 ended, and is impacted by what took place in previous chapters, we are starting up on what will initially feel like a new story - a mystery that appears in Altaruk with serious consequences. Because this is new, it works well for players that want to jump in at this point but don't know what took place before. As we get into Chapter 5 some of the previous chapters will have greater effects on the story, but by then new players should hopefully have a solid grounding on what is taking place in 2012.
We may also have other ways to get you into the campaign if you miss the start of Chapter 4, but no promises! Also, keep in mind that if you are in an area that has regular play you may be able to find someone that has run Chapters One-Three that could run them for you. Also, you can always ask a convention to order Ashes of Athas adventures. They are free for the con, of course. And, if you DM them you can choose between replaying or applying full credit to your PC.
wish there was an NYC game!
I also see the AD&D and 4E adventures for Dark Sun as often being only loosely connected. Ashes of Athas is arguably the longest single-story play experience the setting has had. There is some value to the setting in preserving that.
Right now the limited window is the only way (outside of playing at cons) that we can distribute Ashes of Athas. We do continue to investigate other possibilities. No promises!
Alphastream, 2 questions probably going to finish chapter 2 in my home campaign tonight. Exactly how and what type of feedback do you want? The PDF questionnaires that came with it or do you need more? Also how to I get the feedback to you? 2nd how long till chapter 3 gets released? My guys loved chapter 2 and I'd like to get them into chapter 3 asap. They don't want to put the campaign on hold so I'm probably going to run a side quest until its released, assuming its in the near future.
Hi Wemn, and thanks! We always welcome feedback on our forums - any constructive feedback helps us fine tune our future work. You don't need to share the results to the questions in that we have already written Chapters 3 and 4. If you had especially interesting results, then that tale is both fun for us and others on the forums and there is always a (small) chance we could use it in some way.
I don't know the timing on Chapter 3 being distributed. Dave will have to comment.
Thanks!
Is there anywhere to purchase these from the beginning?
Not at this time, and there may not be. We are trying to find a way to get these to you (even for free), but it is difficult to do so for many different reasons (some of them discussed earlier in this thread).
Of course, as an admin, the bulk of our time is spent working on the upcoming Chapters. We are finishing up the final work on Chapter 5 (premiering at Origins very soon!) and Chapter 6 (premiering at Gen Con in August).
can anyone share the chapters they have now or is that a copyright nono ?
Yeah, that's not allowed. Sorry. However, you can check in your area to see if any DMs have a copy and could run a game for you. If you live in or near a large urban area, it wouldn't be that surprising to find someone can run the first chapters. (Especially true if any local conventions ran Ashes of Athas).
i requested them awhile back and got an email responce but no material (might have missed it i do that some time ) i went to the request link but iam sure the first 2 chapters have been removed all it does is tell me to head back to the home page.
Check your e-mail. If you didn't hear back you could send the e-mail back to Dave and let him know. I'm not sure if he can do anything this far beyond the distribution date, however.
On our end, we do keep working on distribution, though it is an uphill battle. Letting WotC know your interest (Twitter, Customer Support, this thread, etc.) may help.
I just wanted to voice my opinion to Wotc. Please, publish AoA in Dungeon, put it up for digital download sale, something--anything. Please don't let it fall into obscurity. It would be a terrible shame.
Any updates on the release schedule? Our group has played chapters 1-3 and loved them. Think these are some of the best modules to come out for D&D in a long while and would be a shame to not distribute to an even wider base than can attend the conventions. Is this a legal battle with WoTC? Anything we can do to help? Anyone we can solicit from WoTC in particular that will help get these released to the public in the near future? Would love to see these as a Dragon article in the future.
Thanks and looking forward to an update.

I was about to hatch this plan to kidnap Chris Tulach and Mike Mearls at Gen Con, but instead would advocate talking to those guys at Gen Con or via Twitter and letting them know.
It isn't a legal battle, but it is about distribution worries. I don't know the details, and it truly pains me that we haven't been able to release the recent adventures for home play. We still are working on this issue.
Thanks for the kind words. In the meantime we will keep making the chapters as good as we can. Chapter 6 at Gen Con next week will be pivotal to the future of the campaign!
A full update from the AoA team would be nice, putting all the info into one place for everyone to see.
Ashes of Athas has concluded. It was a fantastic finish (better than we admins dared hope). We can't thank everyone enough for making the campaign so successful!
There is some talk that one of us might attend Origins and run Chapter 7 (and perhaps 6). If you are interested, let us know on the AoA forums.
I'll work up a blog post soon to share some info, keeping in mind some may want to avoid spoilers.
As for distribution, we spoke to a number of Wizards people about it. We are doing all we can to get these adventures into your hands!
Thanks, guys!

Glad to hear Ashes of Athas was a success! I am sure it will influence future Organized Play Programs...
Let's hope it gets the okay for distribution so that home play can run the conclusion as well. We are many to look for it!!
Thank you to everyone at Baldman and those nameless ones at WotC for making this possible.
1) Free distribution
2) Anyone can have it
3) But you've got to email a certain person who will then send you 1 chapter at a time
Any idea why it is not just on the article archive?

We took a few days to straighten out the first 6 (of 7) chapters. We are now going through everyone that has sent an e-mail or PM and responding.
In the near future we will set up a web page with e-mails and make it a bit clearer for you. To answer the questions below...
I had a look on the link for the distribution of AoA - is it basically:
1) Free distribution
2) Anyone can have it
3) But you've got to email a certain person who will then send you 1 chapter at a time
Any idea why it is not just on the article archive?
The above is true, with the addition that you need to send us your e-mail and which chapters you need. Also, you can't redistribute (if people redistribute then this will get shut down).
The reason it isn't on the article archive is that this isn't Wizards material. It was a volunteer effort done for Wizards conventions, but it did not go through the excellent development and editorial process used by Wizards.
Hope that helps!
We are really happy to announce that Ashes of Athas adventures are once again available for home play (or play at any other location). Information on how to get the adventures is here.
Glad to hear about Ashas of Athas distribution reopen. Thank you WoTC and Baldman Games ! #awesomenews
The above is true, with the addition that you need to send us your e-mail and which chapters you need.
Can you request all the chapters in a single e-mail?

Bump.
A huge thank you to Wizards for allowing the distribution to take place, and to Baldman and the admins working to accomplish this task!
Yup, thanks to Wizards and Baldman for all they've done and allowing distribution. You've made me and my gaming group VERY happy.
Can you request all the chapters in a single e-mail?
Yes. I got all Chapters except the last one as they're still putting the finishing touch on it i believe.
If you haven't requested the adventures, you can get them by sending a PM to my account (either the Wizards one or my Baldman Games one). Information is found here. I do need your e-mail to send you the adventures. We've had a few requests where an e-mail was not shared. Thanks!
Website is Migrating!!!
April 2013 Please be patient as this unexpected server migration finishes up. We'll be back at it really soon with Origins and Gencon judge sign-ups.
When I go to the links it seems that I get 404 errors. I'd be glad to run these adventures finally. I never got a chance to go to any conventions running AoA.
The web site is being migrated, sorry!
You can send me a PM on these forums with your e-mail address and I will get them to you.
Thanks!
I'm the loud one on the forums, but serious thanks go to my cohorts Chad Brown and Derek Guder (you can send him fiery Utz chips for this or for organizing Gen Con event registration). And we have to thank the many authors and playtesters. A lot of good work came together from many people to get us here!
I don't konw if you have received my message.
My email address is luca-havoc@hotmail.it.
thanx
PMs are all I need. I won't generally be tracking this thread for e-mails/requests.
Yes, you did so earlier today, so I have you down to receive the adventures. I generally process every day, though every now I skip a day when something comes up. If the volume of requests lessens I may shift that to be weekly or a couple of times a week. So far I've kept on top of it pretty easily.

Sorry, i haven't seen it. My mail site have put it in the junk mail.
thanks a lot for the first two chapters. Great work. I'm waiting for the rest. bye
I've been to Baldman games and I can't figure out how to request the 7 chapters to run as a campaign. How do I request the adventures? bmrex@comcast.net, Barry King
Sending me a PM (personal message) on these forums with your e-mail works just fine. I've sent yours out. Thanks! We are closing in on 4,000 adventures sent out!
Does this mean the Chapter 7 adventures are finished being editted and are can be requested now?
You can request them, and I'll add you to the list. We've had a lot on our plate, but we are working on 7-2. 7-1 is complete and we can send that out if you need it.
Thanks!

So, that's what happened with 7-2. I almost forgot about AoA weeks after the last email. Well, now I'm psyched for it again! (Plus, I'm still looking for a group to run it with.)
I haven't seem AlphaStream1 (Teos) post in awhile. I hope everything is ok. If you are reading this Teos could you give us an update about 7-2.
Thanks.
Hi all, sorry for being away. The forum changes have really made me less likely to visit!
I have completed 7-2 part 1 and hope to soon send it out to everyone. 7-2 part 2 (the final part) should be out next week, if not sooner.

Thanks! We are at 5,600 adventure requests, which is really unexpected in such a short timeframe!
Hey! Are you still sending out the adventures? I've pm'ed you but received no replies.
Thanks in advance!
*Edit: and actually I did. My bad and thanks again!
No problem! We are actively distributing the adventures. I process all PMs in chunks, so that I can be a bit more efficient in sending out the e-mails. Thanks!
