Dragon Delves DM Vault (D&D)

The overall quality of this box set is genuinely impressive and clearly shows a lot of thought went into making it both functional and enjoyable for in-person play. Everything included feels well-crafted and purposeful, which makes a big difference when running a smooth and immersive session.

The addition of the stat block cards is especially helpful, as they are clean, easy to read, and make referencing creatures and encounters at the table much faster. The instructions on how to turn the included material into a full campaign are another standout feature, providing a great framework for expanding beyond a one-shot and adding a lot of long-term value to the set.

The necklace included in the box set is also a really nice touch. It does not feel like a throw-in item but instead comes across as high quality and thoughtfully designed, making it a fun and memorable piece both as a prop and as a collectible.

Overall, the production quality across the board is excellent. This box set is going to be incredibly helpful for running sessions in person, cutting down on prep time and making it easier to keep everything organized and engaging for players.

While reviewing the product and comparing it to the book, I did notice one small inconsistency. The map for “Shivering Death’s Lair” in the box set indicates that one square equals five feet, whereas both the book and digital versions state that one square equals ten feet.

Exactly as advertised, me and my players are loving it so far!

The box says there are 22 maps and we received 22 maps, however large sections of key maps are not included which caused a lot of problems when we tried to run those sections expecting to have maps. This is the main reason we got this box so it was extremely disappointing.

Great art and my players loved the pendant & handouts.

Having all those nice maps and handouts make the adventure so much better.

This set is great for running any and all of the quests in Dragon Delves. It adds a lot of immersion and the battle maps are excellent. Highly recommend.

I'm a relatively new GM, and these (gorgeous and high quality) materials have made my life so much easier and my players are very happy as well. Money well spent!

Perfect for a DM to run the Dragon Delves campaign for an in person group. Plenty of the maps could be reused for other things pretty easily too.

I’m excited to use these materials in our upcoming adventures.

I'm a new DM and have been running the adventures in Dragon Delves for my group (two completely new players and one experienced player). I started by having the Death at Sunset maps printed at a local print shop, but when I sat down and did the math afterward, the B&G DM Vault came out to be cheaper overall... plus it has player handouts and a sick Orcus necklace that ties into one of the adventures. I already know my players are going to fight over it. The maps are very high quality, with sturdy paper and bright, crisp images. They're all double sided which saves paper, as well. I just ran Baker's Doesn't this past weekend and my players were all very impressed. I even caught my experienced player surreptitiously taking pictures.

For any others looking to purchase, I recommend flattening the creases a bit beforehand, as the creases made some players' minis unsteady.

Solid Maps. Would have preferred if the coolest mission Hakasori had the full map inside

The Beadle & Grimm dragon delves DM vault is a very good accessory for those hoping to incorporate this adventure compilation into their campaign, or plan an entire campaign around these 10 different dragon encounters. Almost everything in the box was in perfect order, except for a single one of the maps that was *slightly* too big to fit without bending a little. Seems like a minor oversight, shrinking the map by 1/4" overall I bet would fix the problem. Not quite enough of a blemish to merit 4 stars, I wouldn't consider the map "damaged"

Overall, everything in the box is high quality like we've come to expect from this company, and I am very satisfied with this purchase aside from that minor blemish, and will likely continue my purchases with this company. (Small addendum: I wish the box was taller, as to be able to fit the book inside at the same time)

Partner said he loved it and everything looked great!

The maps are great, the handouts are not only beautiful but also immersive and realistic.
All Beadle & Grimm's D&D set's I've gotten to this day have been of such quality, so useful and so immersive it causes problems when I integrate modules in my campaign they haven't done any material for yet!

Ever since I got the Dragon Delves book I've been so sad that I can't recreate the beautiful artwork for my players and they just get boring hand-drawn maps.

Thanks to B&G though now I can share this gorgeous adventure with them. The poster stock is heavy-duty enough that I don't have to be afraid to crease it or crumple it when we're placing our minis around the map, and the extra goodies are top-notch.

My only complaint is that the Starglass Waypoint Lower Level is only half of the map with the other half not present in the vault. I would have loved to have the full map available to use, but my players will have to just make do with my janky hand-drawn map for one part of it and this beautiful B&G map filling out the other part.

These maps are totally awesome the necklace is super heavy duty can't wait to get this to the table

All the maps are high quality prints, appears to be sturdy water proof material, the extra accessories are nice.

What makes it difficult to recommend for others is that this current printing only removed the letters from the players map and didn't go further. I realize this was also something in the printed books (DND Beyond has since updated it), but for the cost of a premium product, I would have hoped they revised the originals. It appears Wizards is designing their maps now almost entirely for VTTs and assume fog of war is in place. For the adventure / map of "Baker's Doesn't" cottage, I had to cover the dungeon area entirely with post it notes, otherwise it would have revealed the location of a key NPC in the adventure.

I'd hope maybe in future products they provided room interiors as separate cards (similar to the monster cards), to make setting up and running the game much easier, one of the original appeals of these products.

This is my first time buying from B&G. I didn’t really know what to expect but i love this! I’m a very busy DM, but i still like to provide a top notch experience for my players. This will help maximize immersion while minimizing up front prep and in game fumbling.

Remember back in the days whwn you ordered a collector edition video game and it came with a ton of epic stuff. Well thats what Beadle &Grimm's bring to the TTRPG world. I ordered the dragon delves DM vault. It has maps and hand outs that I can bring to enhance my players experience. Its high quality and well worth the price.

This is the first time I've ordered from Beadle & Grimm's and I didn't really know what to expect. I've been hearing about them for several years, but I've only run VTT tables since the covid lockdowns, so I didn't have much need for IRL game aids. I've decided, though, that it's time to get back to a real table, it's so much more fun.

After listening to Sly Flourish's Lazy Dungeon Master, I have been curious about using poster maps for quick, easy, and beautiful battle/exploration maps. The advice is mostly about winging it with poster maps, but I'm planning to run some adventures from Dragon Delves, so I was curious if there were poster maps for those adventures. This led me to Beadle & Grimm's DM Vault and I decided to give it a try.

It just arrived and after inspecting the contents, I was so excited I decided I needed to write a review. The poster maps are way higher quality than I was expecting. I was expecting the thin maps like you used to get in the boxed sets from the 80s and 90s that start to fall apart pretty quickly, but these are beefy paper and high quality prints. I'm sure they'll hold up well and feel great to handle. The same goes for the handouts, very high quality not just visually but also tactilely. They'll really up my game.

Another delightful surprise was the encounter cards. I'd wasn't expecting much from the description on the web page, but these are awesome. One of the mildly annoying things about Dungeon Delves is the lack of monster stats in the adventure, which would normally mean having to slow the game to look up stats. This not only solves that problem, they've even included names and roleplaying notes on the specific monsters. On top of that the design where you place it on the GM screen so the DM can see the stats and pic and players can see the pic is just brilliant.

I'm so excited to use this. This will not only improve the flow of my game it will improve the overall immersion. Definitely worth every penny for me, thanks!

The beautiful art of the Dragon Delves adventure book shines through in the B&G set. All the maps are beautifully stylized, the Orcua pin is hefty, and it’s packed with new 2024 stat block encounter cards too! The included booklet of story hooks and ways to build relevant PCs to match the campaign is great!!
