    Bet you wish your workplace looked like WotC?

    Thanks. It is an amazing place and I was very grateful for the opportunity not only to travel there but to also be a part of the announcement of the new edition and have the chance to playtest it some. I really believe that it is because I have tried to approach my blogging and articles in a...

    Guess the Codename; it starts with I---

    So far nobody has come close but I think your guesses are Interesting (Not it) and Ingenius (not it). I eliminated two options for you. Keep at it and I will keep watching to see if somehow somebody does get it.

    Off to see the Wizards: The day that WotC showed me D&D 5th Edition

    I wasn't made aware if they company had or was producing anything else for WotC. As soon as I can find out and if I can get a sample you will see it here. I also have some information I have just received but will save for a bit later about what this means for the Virtual Table but you have to...

    D&D 5E What big thing is supposed to be next week?

    It isn't a pony but it could be a paladin's warhorse, or perhaps a horse of a different color. I will never tell, until Monday.

    Bet you wish your workplace looked like WotC?

    This is one of three articles covering this announcement. The other two articles are WotC Seeks Unity with a New Edition and Off to See the Wizards: The Day WotC Showed Me 5th Edition. These are a few of the photographs taken while at WotC's headquarters last year. No, no top-secret documents...

    D&D 4E WotC, DDI, 4E, and Hasbro: Some History

    Shrinky Dinks I believe. The 80's were great for D&D branding. Seems like a missed opportunity perhaps for a toy company. Maybe we will see a bit of that kind of marketing going forward.

    What's Up With D&D? for Monday, 2 January, 2012

    It does appear to be available to non-subscribers as well. I logged out of my account to check. A late holiday bonus for some. Thanks for the comment.

    http://wizards.com/dnd/images/406_CharacterTheme.jpg This week I flew to Wizards of the Coast and got an excellent look at just how hard people have to work to bring you the latest in Dungeons & Dragons products.

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo: Something is Coming

    I disagree. The market needs a competent rpg that can be played with friends and follows an established rules set. I am unaware if one exists but I know that there was a market for it four years ago when Wizards announced their virtual game table. Paizo had better deliver on time and quality...

    The Character Builder is a power gamer!

    I have to agree with AbdulAlhazred that is not the spirit. I doubt we will see erratat with that in mind but you never know, report the bug because I am not sure how many other people are going to see it your way and report it. I would love to hear some players argue this, because nobody can...

    Top 5 Sales - Q3 2011 Analysis

    Bad for gamers is the truth and it is a real shame because either system offers its own unique experience. This rift that you mentioned can happen in gaming groups that have gamed together for a considerable amount of time. I like both systems as well as several others for fantasy and each...
