Then again, it works for Games Workshop
Open letter to whoever’s in charge of the D&D Miniatures web presence: uh, it might be kinda good to have a PDF of the Quick Start rules booklet from the Entry Pack up there? You know, seeing as how the Entry Pack is now out of print, and the next

Aberrations details surfacing from the depths

Giants on parade
Okay, now that we don’t have to poke around on Ebay to get early glimpses of the Giants of Legend set (well, one day early at this point, but still…), let’s have a look. Okay, first, the complaints. Enough with the minotaurs already (there’s a Skeletal Minotaur and another large

According to a Sci Fi Wire story, actress Judi Dench was nearly enticed to play a little Dungeons & Dragons by my wife’s favorite bald guy, Vin Diesel. This all happened (or didn’t happen, apparently) during the shooting of The Chronicles of Riddick, which comes out next month. So, were

D&D television segment? Blame Canada
On a subsection of the Discovery Channel Canada website, there’s a new video segment on the 30th anniversary of D&D. The segment features WotC Special Projects Manager Ed Stark, and Brad King, author of Dungeons & Dreamers. Make no mistake, you won’t be surprised by the content; the video is
