I wrote up a post on the Wizkids Traps and Tombs Set, my haul of Wizkids Icons of the Realms miniatures, the Tomb of Annihilation Dice Set and the new D&D DM Screen Reincarnated. Hope it helps to give you an idea of what you are in for if you pick any of these items up...

For the past 6 months my friend and I have been collaborating and working on building a 3D version of the pyramid from B4 - The Lost City. Tonight we are finally ready to put it into action. I will be DM'ing for a group of 10 players as they delve into the pyramid and meet the Cynidiceans and...

Here is my follow-up to how it worked in action: http://www.twentysidestoeverystory.com/2017/07/creating-5e-mini-game-dwarven-keg.html Overall, it went very well! I'd probably increase the size of the field but the overall mechanics worked out well.

Planning to use initiative, although I might use Greyhawk initiative for this event as we have been playing around with it and I think it'd be perfect for adding suspense to a sporting event scenario.

Posted this to my blog: http://www.twentysidestoeverystory.com/2017/07/creating-5e-mini-game-dwarven-keg-battle_25.html Going to run it on Friday, I'll try to give an update on how it went and tweaks to make. I'm thinking that I might remove the tapping the keg thing as a mechanic for the...

Good thought - I think certainly the use of magic would be considered a foul, however cheating would likely be a factor that should be considered. I would think a player on the field would be unable to clandestinely be able to pull off spell casting, but perhaps a friend in the crowd could...

I'll have to get on that next. I'm thinking some kind of Modron that talks like Slurms McKenzie. I certainly take the point, although my group nor any group I have ever been a part of has ever paid attention to encumbrance rules as written. Additionally, using the encumbrance mechanics would...

I have a big game to prepare for on Friday and my players have enjoyed the inclusion of little mini-games to accentuate festivals/city exploration. For this event, the players will be honored guests at the Day of the Stonewife, a celebration of the gifts the dwarven deity provides the community...

Here is my map of the Yawning Portal tavern that I made with Dungeon Designer 3: I'm going to be trying to write and create more content to spruce up the Yawning Portal - next up is to provide some stats for Durnan and flesh out some of the other NPCs that make appearances in the tavern...

Goodman Games just released a new product called the Adventurer's Almanac, written by Michael Curtis. This book is a 111-page system neutral game-aid intended to assist game masters by providing over 300 adventure hooks and ideas. The book is structured around a 13 month calendar which provides...

My players loved playing through Keep on the Borderlands. They had never played D&D Basic before, only 5e, and so I was motivated to show them what the game was like in its earlier form. They loved the freedom they had to choose their own path and it was a lot of fun for me to add the details to...

My Wednesday night group I DM for gave Greyhawk Initiative a try as they entered White Plume Mountain. I warned everyone ahead of time that I was interested in trying this, and initially everyone was on board. When we got to the table, I could tell there was a little pushback and the idea of not...

Hello everyone! Long time lurker...I have been playing D&D off and on since I was 8 years old, and been solidly gaming for the past five or so. This past year I experienced my first Gen Con and have since attended three other conventions. Now I'm starting a blog called Twenty Sides to Every...
