Okay, this build of a library is one of the more compelling selling points I’ve seen for Fat Dragon Games supplements. I so want to have this sort of thing for my own table. The picture below is one of twenty of this wonderful piece of work.
I like watching Kickstarter for new projects. I think the pledge model is a wonderful way to get things off the ground. I’d really like to see Ben’s latest project, “Encounters ~ Plots ~ Places“, make it to production. He’s about a fifth of the way there now, and a …
I’ve been busy this week and haven’t been able to spend so much time reading other blogs… but I think I found some good links this week anyway. Topic: “My Edition of D&D” The Rhetorical Gamer goes into how he might change races if he were redesigning D&D. Short form: …
Given the recent speculation based on posts at Wizards of the Coast, I thought I’d share something I just saw on Google+ (and the link to Margaret Weis’ comment it refers to). Via Matthew Brenner: In a recent post on the Dragonlance forums, Margaret Weis “confirms” that Wizards of the …
