What an absolute mess. Indianapolis isn’t big enough for GenCon — just look at the lack of downtown hotel space that anyone going through the housing lottery knows about. Why stay in Indy? Plenty of larger cities would love to have the business. Just like when GenCon moved from Milwaukee, it’s...

I can't believe this isn't on the front page of enworld.org. This is a fantastic deal and you can designate where the money you donate goes: paizo, a charity of your choice, etc. I'm floored.

I've been attending cons (and Gen Con specifically) since the early 90's. This is not the first time that a major sponsor has opted not to run games or have a booth in the exhibit hall. There was a lot concern when Games Workshop stopped attending because to many people they *were* wargaming...

Drums of War 1.1, patched, in App Store Just wanted to send a notice to everyone: a patched version of Drums of War HD is should now be in the App Store. Hopefully this will fix any crashing issues you've encountered as well as several other non-crash bugs. I haven't gotten word from Apple...

The app does let you import .dnd4e files exported from the Character Builder. Currently the Character Builder is the only thing that exports these files (not the Monster Builder). If you're having difficulty importing, let me know. The app is meant not just as something that can track your...

You're not missing anything: DDI currently doesn't support export of monsters. As soon as it does, I'll be adding the ability to import. It's something I've been waiting for for a while! You can customize and save monsters using the Adventure Tools but unfortunately there's no way to export...

I apologize if announcing a commercial product in the forums is frowned upon, but I thought this might be of general interest. (I'm also pretty excited that this version is finally done!) The latest release of Drums of War (Drums of War and Drums of War HD for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.) is...
