    D&D General Ear Loops for crowded store gaming advice?

    I recently got some Loop Quiet 2 ear plugs to take to the UK Games Expo and I was very happy with them. On the whole they did a good job of reducing the total volume of the event especially in the trade halls whilst being less isolating than my normal heavy duty ear plugs. For the RPG sessions...

    UK Games Expo Attracts 42,000 Attendees Making It World's 3rd Largest Tabletop Convention

    I had a great time at UKGE this year but unfortunately one of the items I bought back along with my swag is a raging case of convention crud. Despite that I'm still looking forward to going back next year.

    Wizards of the Coast Says That China Tariffs Will Have Minimal Impact on D&D

    So I'm in the UK and I have noted that my books from 4e* through the premium reprints and as far as Phandelver and beyond were all printed in the USA but my 2024 core books were all printed in Belgium. Did the 2024 books get printed in multiple locations or are the 2024 books in the USA also...

    AD&D 2E Huh. AD&D 2e is my favorite D&D

    Until Shadowdark came along 2e was probably my favourite edition of D&D. The good news for me is that it is really easy to convert my old B/X, 1e and 2e adventures to SD. I recently bought POD copies of the 1e core books for nostalgia's sake but I ran both Dragonlance and ToEE for my group in...

    DriveThruRPG Print-on-Demand Prices Going Up By As Much As 50% In The US

    For some reason the DTRPG print on demand prices seem to have jumped dramatically in the UK, at least for some of the D&D books. Back in September I bought the rules Cyclopedia hardcover for £21.19, today that same book is now £30.62 Some of the softcover items I ordered are now fractionally...

    D&D 5E (2024) DDB Maps now integrates the combat tracker

    It is finally becoming something that I might consider using over my usual VTT of choice. There's still a ton of features I would like to see added but it is nice to see that the tool is under active development.

    AD&D 2E A bunch of 2e PDFs seem to have bumped up in price

    And the second email to customer support has yielded a result - they have admitted that this was an error (not sure if it was theirs or WOTC's) and they are fixing things. I have always had a swift to issues from their customer support in the past which is why their initial communication on...

    No option for 585 CY?

    AD&D 2E A bunch of 2e PDFs seem to have bumped up in price

    Albeit some of the worst and most garbled OCR you will come across. I've messaged them back to clarify my point just in case it was missed. Yes, I can download the old version and it is still available for sale on their site.

    AD&D 2E A bunch of 2e PDFs seem to have bumped up in price

    In addition to price hikes previous purchasers are no longer automatically entitled to updated scans as had been customary before. I purchased this a while ago:- https://www.dmsguild.com/product/17441/Greyhawk-The-Adventure-Begins-2e However there is now another listing available:-...

    Shadowdark Shadowdark looks so good!

    Ordered my print on demand copy last week and received it this morning. I really like it.

    D&D 5E (2014) Forge of Fury TFTYP?

    The roper killed two members of the party when I ran the game and the final fight was extremely close to a TPK. Wow, that was a year ago. Time flies.

    Shadowdark Shadowdark looks so good!

    The premium version of the book is on really thick paper. The standard edition is nice enough but having seen photos of the other one I am envious.
