WotC announced that the D&D Miniatures game would not die after all. Instead, they’ve decided to hand it off to a handful of committed volunteers to develop stats for future minis releases and keep the skirmish/tournament scene going, with official license from WotC.

The return of entangling and the red death
Next month’s editorial calendar for D&D Insider is up. In it, there are not one, not two, but FOUR playtest articles coming out, including the Druid, Invoker, Adventurer’s Vault 2 items, and Mercykillers.
Power Attack the Shoggoth
As noted previously, I’m a huge fan of the d20 Call of Cthluhu book. With it, I ran my favorite campaign of all time, and the rules were exactly the level I wanted them. Except… the feat selection sucked.
Adventure Prep: Online D&D game trial
As discussed here, I’ve gotten a group of geeks together to experiment with playing D&D online. The first game (Friday night) is mostly about meeting with the players online, getting our various software working and maybe try playing a short D&D 4e Scenario. For the first game we settled for Gametable as the Virtual tabletop […]

I began putting together some new Encounter group templates that can be used to expedite your game planning and hopefully present your players with some new experiences and challenges. I’ve also listed some suggestions and brainstorming for how these groups could be implemented, and I would love to hear any you’ve come up with as well!
DM Chronicle: Session 5, Alien Feys & Whiskered Pirates, Part 2
See part 1 here. Scene 3: White Rage! After a night where the PCs slept warily on the bridge of the ship the PCs spotted a winged creature flying toward them. It was a large White Dragon with a human pirate riding it. Screaming in draconic about ‘finally getting a prize worth taking’ the dragon […]
YouTube Tuesday: Beam Me Up Edition
How could it be anything else this week but the trailer to the new Star Trek movie, a reboot of the franchise. I’ve embedded the theater bootleg since it’s the only one up on YouTube, but I highly recommend watching the full quality trailer instead. Everything I’ve heard has made me excited for this movie, […]
