Planescape | What Are The Gate Towns of Outlands? | D&D

Infinite realms of immortals and impossibilities, the Outer Planes brim with celestials, fiends, gods, and the dead—and they’re all just a step away.

A campaign set in the Gatetowns is a great idea.

[obsidiansiriusblackheart]

This dude being interviewed seems really passionate about this book. I'm definitely down to buy this one, seems like real efforts have been put in here

[AAron-grjk]

This concept of gate towns is actually interesting!

[Carbadonia]

I've been planning for the longest time to do a high-level Planescape adventure for my friend group, long before I even knew this bookset was being made funnily enough, that will be the precursor to me running my first campaign, once I run a few adventures in my setting to get an idea of how to DM for my group and shake off the rust of not DMing for many years, this bookset coming out in the near future will likely coincide with when I begin figuring out that high-level adventure in detail, and I look forward to it.

[nicholase]

The best thing about the Gatetowns is that you could drop them anywhere in your own companion.

[maxe-mllamaolove]

I can see a artificer character that lives in Automata, and their one job is to cause disorder so that the town doesn't go into mechanus. They complete their job by causing bombing attacks and such.

[yuranashi]

maaaan, i gonna have such fun with this, i hope the lore is dense, and character options overflowing.

[pathosnomos]

looking forward to everything all at once campaign.

[gyorgyor]

I find it interesting that while the Outer Plane portal dictates that magic nature of a Gatetown and its sphere of influence, the Gatetown can have other portals. Calling it now Sylvania will have a portal to the Feywild, I mean Aborea is a more Heavenly version of the Feywild with Arvandor and Mount Olympus and Brightwater.

[DeanNatheos-eqhl]

I think these gate towns are fantastic I would like to hear more about them. Excellent video thank you and have a good evening😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊.

[AAron-grjk]

I think congrats: that's two in a row I'll be buying (just got Shattered Obelisk)

[rainbowmothraleo]

2:19 - isn't Ribcage almost devoid of devils and instead populated by tieflings? I thought it was a cool detail

[rodneygriffin]

Spell jammer was cool and I enjoyed that.
I hope planescape is even better.
More worlds for the players to discover.
I also hope that these campaign settings will work and blend easy with the upcoming D&D One system.

[kajetan]

Will it be possible to buy the three books of the set separately?

[Banefane]

Every adventure should start from the outlands, so beginners can taste the outer planes.
Just kidding, but it is not completely wrong either I would say.

[Jeromy]

My biggest question about Planescape is how rather low level characters survive almost any plane beyond the material considering all of the harsh environments and extreme alignment requirements.

[austinquinn]

I think I'm going to add a gate town into my Curse of Strahd campaign that allows the players to trade with the outside world.

[gendokar]

So glad to run planescape by zeb cook for AD&D. Wont support current wizards until they stop money grabing and shitting on their players, and support LGS. Only D&D products I would but are ones not produced by wizards.
