    Show your game prep notes

    I’ve read too many published adventures over the years, so my notes are pretty much full-blown write-ups. This was my write-up for my Cyre 1313 Halloween adventure, without the maps (made in dungeon fog),logic puzzle key or handouts. [/spoiler]

    Diamond Distributors Asks Bankruptcy Court For Ownership of Publishers' Consignment Inventory [UPDATED]

    What a horrible gut-punch for the publishers. If Diamond is legally able to get away with this, I hope the publisher's lawyers would be able to force Diamond to offer the publishers first-buy rights (at pennies on the dollar) to get their stock back to attempt to resell through other avenues...

    D&D 3.x Running 3e D&D for the first time in a while, any advice?

    Limit your players to pulling from no more than 2 books for their abilities. Not so much for the player’s sake, but for the DMs.The more sources the DM has to track or prep for, the less is spent on handling the adventure and actin at hand. Completely personal opinion: 3E is a severe headache...

    WizKids to Release Adult Blue Dragon Figure Based on Dragon Delves

    Tell that to the dragons of Council of Wyrms. How do they get those items on? They have Demi-human (or kobolds, goblins or the like) associates who act as servants, just as any rich individual might.

    D&D General Unseen servant drums

    I’d be inclined to treat it as if it’s taking the “Help” action. May not be elaborate, but should be able to enhance a performance.

    Planescape Which Planescape faction do you most closely identify with?

    Ah, the Xaosect is revealed! None perfectly fit, but if I had to choose, put me in for the Mercykillers, with a side of the Sign of One.

    D&D 5E (2024) Solasta 2 and the 1/2 elf

    I was unhappy the first time around when half-orcs were removed. Taking them (and half-elves as well) out again feels like 1989 all over again, with a different group behind the "push".

    D&D General What do you say when someone is thinking of quitting your game?

    As much as I love D&D, there have been times I had to step away for one reason or another. So far, I feel I've been lucky enough I come back around to some form of RPG, if not directly D&D. From the note above, it doesn't sound like it's anyone in particular being the cause, just general...

    D&D General Is It Cake?

    Delicious in dungeon?

    I'm talking more like this: Both red dragons, not even remotely close.

    RPG Evolution: What Do You Mean, "Run"?

    It's harder these days to get players to wrap their heads around the idea that an encounter might be over their heads, and that running is a perfectly viable option. In my wife's recent campaign, twice we've had to back out an encounter that was more than we could handle - and if I hadn't been...

    Well, ugh. That puts it in the "thanks, but no thanks" category :(. I'm already inundated with plastic dragons anyways.

    WizKids to Release Adult Blue Dragon Figure Based on Dragon Delves

    I cheer for D&D's dragons not being limited to having one fixed appearance - pre 3E, they didn't really have a unified look and Elmore's depiction vs. Parkinson's vs. Easley vs. Sutherland's were often quite different - and I was okay with that. However, that said there are certain dragon...
