    D&D General Which D&D World Would Make the Best TV Show

    If you’re going for episodic series, hollow world. Why? The hollow world ( for those that don’t know) is ancient civilizations that have been picked and placed for preservation all next door to each other). So traveling from place to place is an easy for a variety of locations and situations...

    D&D General Baldur's Gate 3 will now be releasing August 3rd on PC and September 6th on PS5, increased level cap, race & class details and more

    EN World What you thought a thread title said.

    NASA test Global Thermonuclear War ( it’s a reference to an old movies that some of the younger folks here won’t get. But upon thinking that is what it was saying, all I kept picturing was a young Matthew Broderick on an old computer being asked ‘shall we play a game?)
