    Dungeons & Dragons to Release 50th Anniversary Double Vinyl Record

    Yes, correct--I phrased it as "200th adventure path module" in an attempt to avoid confusion. It's 200 issues, and #200 is a stand-alone module rather than the usual multi-parters.

    Dungeons & Dragons to Release 50th Anniversary Double Vinyl Record

    As long as we are talking about official TTRPG soundtracks, Pathfinder has one to commemorate it's 200th adventure path module, Seven Dooms for Sandpoint.

    Ravenloft Novel Coming in 2025

    Ah, I misread the question and thought we were just talking about new D&D tie-in novels! Some light googling suggests it is mostly set in "Shatterspace," with the protagonist having grown up on an asteroid, so it seems no Realms here. Carry on.

    There's also the Spelljammer novel "Memory's Wake."

    D&D General D&D 50th Anniversary Gets A TIME Magazine Special Edition

    Grocery stores are a good bet. Walgreens tend to stock a lot of these "special interest" one-off magazines, at least in my area. And, as you already know, Barnes and Noble has a wide magazine selection. It looks like you can buy the "special issues" from Time's online store, but they don't...

    Dragon Reflections #79

    Why do you say that? Writing style? Mohan's position? For that matter, any guesses on this one?

    D&D General Who’s going to GaryCon? Ticket sales are live

    I'm actually a big fan, but I think it's going through some growing pains. It's well worth attending, particularly if you're fond of earlier editions/OSR stuff.

    D&D General Who’s going to GaryCon? Ticket sales are live

    It was noticeably much more crowded and hectic this year! I wonder if that's the new norm or a combination of the 50th anniversary year/the Gygax kids amping up their hustle. I love the Grand Geneva as a venue, though Gary Con now seems to push its resources to the limit. What does "egos at the...

    D&D General Who’s going to GaryCon? Ticket sales are live

    You (maybe) know I'm there. Still 1000+ regular ("Silver") weekend passes left as of this typing, though I suspect they will eventually sell out like last year.

    D&D 5E (2024) What is your preferred naming for the 2014 and 2024 versions of D&D?

    I've been trying to get "red spine D&D" going a few different places online, but so far, no takers. :(

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    It worked for Detective Comics Comics and Major League Baseball Baseball.

    D&D General Royal Mail D&D 50th Anniversary Stamps

    I'm amused at the idea of some pensioner trying to mail something and wondering what the trunk with teeth is all about. The unified look is nice, though I might have picked someone besides Reynolds (whose work I like fine, I just associate it with a frozen-in-time version of the game from 20+...

    D&D Movie/TV Paramount+ Will Not Proceed with Dungeons & Dragons Live-Action TV Show

    OP is referring to Rege-Jean Page (Xenk).

    Jennell Jaquays posthumously wins SFWA Kate Wilhelm Solstice Award

    A shame she didn't live to see the honor, but it's nice that her wife will accept it on her behalf. And seeing Monica Valentinelli's name involved suggests to me that she got the ball rolling on this one! At any rate, some much deserved recognition.

    D&D 5E (2024) Alternate 2024 DMG Cover features Lolth!

    I can see them going for the mimic for sure, for the brand recognition reasons you suggest. Assuming the artist and the style is the same for the alt cover, I was thinking maybe a displacer beast, since that's a distinctly D&D monster and the pseudopods and displacement effect would make a...

    D&D 5E (2024) New Dungeon Master's Guide Cover Features Venger (From the D&D Cartoons)

    We've had dragons (dracolich counts) on both covers so far, so this tracks. I assume they would lean heavy on iconic monster types (mind flayers, giants, mimics... maybe they skip the beholder this time, since that's on the current MM cover). If they do a progression of challenge types again...

    D&D 5E (2024) New Dungeon Master's Guide Cover Features Venger (From the D&D Cartoons)

    I admit that this seemingly small thing has bothered me as well. My copy of Storm King's Thunder is taunting me from my shelf even as I type.

    D&D 5E (2024) New Dungeon Master's Guide Cover Features Venger (From the D&D Cartoons)

    Well, here you have the answer to the question of "What do we call this new-edition-not-new-edition?": This is red spine D&D. "What edition are you playing?" "Oh, I started with red spine D&D, so I just run that."

    D&D Movie/TV The Lost Tomes of Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

    I've just rewatched Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves on bluray (like it even more on rewatch!), and in the deleted scenes is an extended version of the Speak with Dead sequence. In it, the corpse which, in the film, is asked what it's favorite book is, goes on at length listing all of his...

    D&D 5E (2024) The D&D Cartoon Heroes In The 2024 PHB

    This is basically the premise of Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans's DIE comic book series (and its spinoff RPG).
