    WotC's Annual Xmas Layoffs

    Layoff rumors at WOTC Author Phil Athans just tweeted that Rick baker has been laid off at WOTC. If this is true it sucks, Baker's one of the good guys there. Lets hope that the "layoffs during christmas" tradition has died. https://twitter.com/#!/PhilAthans

    Fantasy Flight Games statement on Star Wars License

    Hmm. Yeah. Not sure what that has to do with a company spilling secrets about closed door licensing deals. A fan site reporting about 3.0 D&D and a company dropping hints about who beat them for a possible lucrative license are two separate things.

    Fantasy Flight Games statement on Star Wars License

    D&D 4E 4e Home Encounters

    Hey guys... glad you like the idea! I certainly hope people find it and use it. Thanks for making the maps, that's very useful. Yeah, I figured that there would be others like me who can't make it to a gaming store on Wednesday nights, so why not do a community driven thing? Thanks for the plug!
