I remember as a kid seeing this product advertised CONSTANTLY in various comics and publications but I never got hold of one myself. Fast forward to present day and I have had the opportunity to take a close-up look at the "City-State of the Invincible Overlord" and frankly I don't quite...
I have always been a huge fan of the combination of MTG and D&D mostly for the infinite possibilities and endless story options. I've loved the previous Planeswalker guides WotC developed so I am very much looking forward to this one. Lorwyn/Shadowmoor was one of my favorite MTG sets and I...
I long for the days when we could get an ENTIRE campaign starting at 1st level and going all the way up to 20th level. Otherwise, why have these levels if we never use them. I long for the days of Shackled City, Savage Tide, and Age of Worms. Well written, tons of maps, lots of fun.

The only issue I foresee is the chance that it becomes a crutch and is relied on too heavily in order to escape what troubles us rather than dealing with the issue directly. D&D is a fantastic stress-reliever but like all things can become overused and abused in my opinion.
What I am really interested in is how they will edit this particular adventure (if at all). The original was from "Basic" edition so the challenge ratings of the monsters were all over the place. Plus, there was room provided to allow the DM to further expand the adventure by adding additional...
This is probably the biggest reason I do NOT care for this whole Kickstarter/Patreon financial plan. It is simply too easy to entice a consumer with tons of pretty bells, whistles and artwork to get at least a small handful to donate a ton of money to a project. Now of course, caveat emptor...
I ADORE that art style. I'm actually really looking forward to this. Quite a few of the course corrections for the classes I've seen in Unearthed Arcana are a necessary change for the good of the game in my humble opinion. It will be nice to see a finalized version all in one source.
