    Is D&D Entering a New Golden Age?

    It's really strange how a system that's selling well and has managed to plop itself right back into your cultural conversation is now being considered a failure. WotC could self 50 million PHBs tomorrow and you guys would be going "UHH THAT'S ONLY FIVE PERCENT OF THE WORLD'S POPULATION...

    Is D&D Entering a New Golden Age?

    It's almost like making safe business decisions is much smarter than people understand! I've also noticed a general downward trend with people my age(28) playing video games. They're expensive, hardware is expensive unless you get consoles, they take up a ton of time - time you're spending idle...

    Take A Look At The Gen Con 50 Museum: First Draft of D&D, First Traveller, & More!

    It's such a shame that there's so little interest in the heritage/beginnings of DnD.

    Monte Cook Games Announced Numenera 2: Discovery & Destiny!

    I'm 60% sure that the beastiary contains a suggestion that you can make monsters really scary if their low-level ass can drop an entire pool to zero with poison. That's generally what I do with this group - I give them puzzle monsters like Golems with off switches hidden on their bodies...or...

    Monte Cook Games Announced Numenera 2: Discovery & Destiny!

    The biggest issue I've run into for Cypher for my own campaign is that the players tend to be RPG minmaxers. They play every RPG we make like a god damn DND campaign. So it's challenging

    Domain play can be fantastic if you integrate it from level 1 into the story.

    The Geekification of Everything?

    I'm blown right away that somebody mentioned Moviebob without using the phrase "I can't believe I used to watch -" beforehand.

    D&D 5E DnD 5e OVERview(Not a review)

    Next video planned are going to be class-by-class videos that explain how to optomize characters, and suggestions for roleplaying. I don't feel like people are told enough that being a paladin doesn't mean "spam detect evil and smack with a hammer" enough, especially since the fluff for Paladins...

    D&D 5E DnD 5e OVERview(Not a review)

    Hey guys, I'm someone trying to make their way onto the youtube scene. Not for money, but I'd love to have nice, informative videos for the serious tabletop gamer. No 49 minute videos, just short, 10-minute videos that teach people how to play DnD and other things. My first video is this...

    A New Kickstarter From Monte Cook Games!

    225 dollars, 305 canadian. But it was worth it. 3 playmats, portfolio, slipcase, all the print books. I love this system.

    Cypher System Damage

    A good trick is to not give extra damage. Cordell suggests an enemy that does little damage but moves you down the damage track with say, a poison. People will freak out if they're suddenly 1/3rd dead with tons of stuff in their pools. Enemies don't crit, an enemy crit would be a player...
