Until new supporting materials for the Nentir Vale are published, let’s look at what is available to run a D&D 5th edition campaign in this excellent setting.

a busy DM who is looking for the time savings provided by having ready to drop-in setting content for their own homegame.

a newer DM who wants the freedom to do some world building with the safety net provided by having fully detailed communities, locations, NPCs and maps.

a DM looking to run one of the 5th edition adventures such as the Starter Set or Princes of the Apocalypse outside of the Forgotten Realms.

Earlier this week, I was surprised to see the Nentir Vale on the list of settings in the latest D&D poll alongside Greyhawk, Eberron and other big settings.
