    WotC Dragonlance: Everything You Need For Shadow of the Dragon Queen

    I'm only this far in the thread, so I don't know if anyone else has replied. But, this was EXACTLY a character concept/NPC I made in 2E: Half-Elf ranger/cleric of Habakkuk, chosen-of-bespoke-god like Goldmoon. I mean, in retrospect he was basically Shandakul from FR, but with a two-handed battle...

    WotC You want to be a D&D miniature? Hasbro wants to make it possible.

    This is awesome, and the most genuinely wholesome thing I've seen on the Internets in way too long. What a fun way to get kids into gaming or honor those who got us there. FWIW, I just opened the Stormwreck minis set, and while it's certainly not "carved by a Renaissance sculptor" level of...

    D&D General So, You Like The D&D Cartoon Huh? Pre-order Poseable Figures!

    I DO remember that. I'm mid 40s, and I have a vivid childhood memory of my grandfather, who lived through the Depression, saying when he was a kid, "We had a piece of 2x4, and that was a truck. If we got lucky, we could nail some spools to it for wheels" (quote might not be word-for-word, it's a...

    D&D General 'Playing D&D' (Without Playing D&D)

    Rolling up new characters and planning out my next few levels on the characters I am playing are my top two "not 'other'" choices, but under other, I'll 1. split hairs and say "pouring over/reading maps" specifically. 2. Followed by "listening to D&D podcasts" 3. and "researching TTRPGs as...

    D&D 5E (2014) How Many PHB's have you bought?

    This is what I initially thought the question asked, and that resulted in lot of "ticking off numbers on my fingers." If we do this: 2 x 1E, both inherited, since passed on to others 1 x 2E (first cover) probably the one I flipped through the most, also since passed on. 1 x 2E (second cover)...

    She-Hulk: Attorney at Law trailer

    I would literally watch Korg, Luis, and Madisynn recap the MCU as either MST3K style show OR a faux-news pundit show, happily.

    D&D 5E (2014) Official Dragonlance Minis Are On The Way!

    Yup. I bought a full set of Legends of Golarion. Talk about "random" painting. ¯\(ツ)/¯ :D

    D&D 5E (2014) Official Dragonlance Minis Are On The Way!

    Whoops! I meant "If the render was accurate to the final product," not "If MG was accurate in what they posted"! (I love you guys!)

    Minisgallery.com has a render, but I have no idea if/how accurate: MinisGallery - D&D Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queen

    Dragonlance Dragonlance Brings New Options to D&D

    I played a Krynnish Chronomancer in 2E once upon a time. Probably my first "high concept" character (LOL at that I thought it was "high concept," 30ish years of hindsight later). Rogue wizard, so he didn't join the Orders, but pledged to Lunitari and keeping the "balance" of the timestream.

    Dragonlance Dragonlance Brings New Options to D&D

    So, based on the minis warband that ICV2 posted Thursday, I don't think those are supposed to be Solmanic Knights, but Kalaman's "Home Guard" or whatnot. Yes, I know the IMAGE is under "The Knights of Solamnia" section of the article, but I'm calling it mis-used art (what's the trope, Trailers...

    Let's Talk about Minotaurs

    I too, like minotaurs. A bit of thread necromancy here, but I'm in the "Min (rhymes with sin)-O ("American English Long O")-Tore (Rhymes with Lore, Data's "brother")" pronunciation camp. The recent use of the long "I" in the first syllable has really thrown me, but I suppose it makes since...

    What did you study in college?

    I was shocked, SHOCKED I tell you when I realized how many librarian friends I have scattered around the country. They're EVERYWHERE.

    What did you study in college?

    I'm avoiding grading to post this (during a plan period, no less. It's been a long Monday.) BA in English, Teaching of Secondary Education (What do you do with...?), University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2000. MA in Teaching and Leadership (Without the Leadership endorsement. I was younger...

    What type of animal hero are you?

    PARANOID RADIOACTIVE CHEF OWL. Actually, two-and-a-half of those are spot on.

    The One Ring 2E - Unhappy with Free League's pre-order and shipping

    FWIW, I pre-ordered through Miniature Market in January, and it showed up today. (Not to threadjack; late pre-orders bother the heck out of me so I empathize.)

    D&D Reference in Snake Eyes Movie

    Oh, man: The Borovia Arc would make a great adventure seed: you've got what starts as a standard rescue mission-in-hostile-territory, it goes pear-shaped when the hostage is already released, there's colorful NPC's (White Clown, Magda, Cobra Commander), a circus (!), the party gets split: one...
