Highlights of today's action in the Dungeon of Dread:
* A half-ogre traumatized via cause fear
* Many goblins slain; two taken prisoner
* Giant ants defeated, they transformed into goblins upon death
* End with party crawling down a narrow, steep chute, an angry ogre in pursuit— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) March 28, 2018

What keyboard/cover is that and do you like it? It's the Apple smart keyboard. Pricey, but I quite like it.

What do you use for a DM screen? Whatever it is, I like it.

Homemade, saw a video on YouTube but don't have link handy. Miniature artist canvasses, white duct tape, self-adhesive plastic storage pockets, printed out reference info. https://t.co/EamKFjfmzQ

is that @DnDBeyond or pirated copies of your own books :-p? D&D Beyond, though I remember visiting my old gaming crew, and the awkward moment where someone pulled out a laptop loaded with illegal PDFs.

Yikes! Was there a moment of realisation of did the situation just fly over their head?There was a moment of the laptop opening, the window popping up with the PDFs, someone complaining they can't buy them legally (this was like 2009) and someone realizing where I worked.
