Thanks to everyone who expressed interest in Judging for us at Gen Con. We have selected our team. If you think you might like to see what a TPK looks like on the other side of the screen, keep us in mind when you make your Gen Con plans next year!

Goodman Games would like to thank the GMs who have responded so far to our search for tournament Judges! We still have one (exactly ONE) slot left on the team. If you think you can pass the dreaded Judge Test and are interested in seeing the tournament from the other side of the screen...

The DCC Tournament team is looking to fill out its Judge roster with one or two final members for Gen Con Indy. If you think you've got lethal dice, the inner tranquility of a Zen master, and the 4E rules tech of a pro DM there is no better chance to prove it than to Judge for the DCC...

I haven't played all the classes yet, but in 4E, I prefer bard and warden. Wardens are the druid-y class I've always wanted dwarves to have! Huzzah for warden! Bards do everything bards should do, and do it better than in the past! Huzzah for bards! Really, this is probably my favorite...

As was kindly mentioned earlier, not all Goodman modules are dungeon crawls (despite the flagship series name). Specifically, Isle of the Sea Drake was written to not be a crawl (although you go indoors at least some of the time). You can check out the review here. That should make it clear...

That's a pretty good encapsulation of how it goes. To elaborate a bit: If you can, you get a team with four friends (for 5 total players) and sign up to play the tournament's entry rounds on either Thursday or Friday. If you advance, you're automatically in round 2 (on Saturday), and so on...

If you'll pardon me speaking about something I co-wrote, it sounds like Castle Whiterock would fit, particularly levels 9, 9B, and 10-12. The duergar are the de facto rulers of CW, and their holdings include a bloodsport arena (level 10) and a massive fortress (levels 11, 11A, and 12). They...

Just RPGS: D&D: 2E, 3E, 3.5E, 4E, Basic Call of Cthulhu: 3rd, 5th World of Darkness: Vampire, Werewolf, Mage, Changeling, Wraith (during the 90s...whatever editions those where) Legend of the Five Rings: 1st, 2nd Heavy Gear Shadowrun (forget edition) Earthdawn (2nd?) Top Secret Gamma World d20...

I had the same concerns. I run the Dungeon Crawl tournament at Gen Con every year, and I thought 4E was going to make PCs unkillable. Turns out, not so much. We almost tied our TPK and bodycount records. Some of that had to do with new-ness of the system and rookie mistakes (a few people went...

Adventurer's Vault = cool, must-have book, but irritating that it wasn't "core." In general, what they threw in the "core" books perplexed me a bit. I had to buy separate book to get sharks, but they gave me quicklings and galeb duhr in the MM? Meh. FR-specific information and designer...

Pie is brain food. For our all-day games, we usually start with pancakes, but that wasn't an option. LOVE the recipes!

I've heard other people talk about their evil campaigns, and it was usually just a mishmash of adolescent power fantasies and greed (moreso than D&D normally is, anyway, and this coming from a longtime fan). I had the opportunity to play in an evil campaign a few years ago, and let me tell...

That's how I got started, back in 6th grade. Bargle, you bastard!

Very cool counters!
