    Summon: MTG Experts!

    I've been enjoying what I've opened and collected. Went to a pre-release; ended up buying a set booster box which probably netted me 90% of the cards in the base set. I'm not super picky about the various special cards -- just having all the characters in some form and enough cards to make some...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

    Just got back ... it was fun! Not, IMO, as good as the original or Last Crusade, but I liked it over Temple of Doom and Crystal Skull. So IMO a worthwhile entry into the series.

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    Ok, translate for the non-MTG informed here. EDH precon? Check land? Battlebond land? If I'm interested in mostly getting good (as in theme and balance, not power or rarity or whatever) Middle Earth-themed cards that can be assembled for casual games, what do you recommend based on what you...

    D&D Movie/TV Should the D&D Movie Been Serious or Not Called D&D?

    IMO it would have been better to have branded it "Forgotten Realms: Honor Among Thieves". But I think the humor was entirey appropriate.

    Worlds of Design: All Your Base

    In a cavern, in a canyon ... Because we're all about that base, 'bout that base.

    RPG Evolution: The Art of the Live Stream

    And lo, D&D has become classic Greek performance art. The student has become the master.

    Pathfinder 2E Paizo Shares Color Covers Of Pathfinder Remaster

    I've never cared for Wayne Reynolds' art style, personally.

    OOTS 01281: But It Gets Better Every Generation

    Thought there was an art upgrade inbound for a moment there.

    There's A New D&D Cook Book Coming With All The Flavors of the Multiverse

    Not sure whether the Beholder eye soup or the Mimic Stew is the best opening course here (not really up for the House Slaad today). But I'm definitely getting the Tarrasque Steak, rare, with a topping of Myconid Spores, and a scoop of gelatinous cube for desert.

    WotC Anyone Else Tired of the Wizards Bashing?

    No. Play silly games; win silly prizes.

    D&D 5E (2024) Do you actually like weapon masteries?

    Any reason these couldn't just be fighter-specific feats (perhaps with a feat tree) instead of a different system?

    D&D 5E (2014) Lore & Legends Is An Official Visual Guide to D&D 5th Edition

    Art & Arcana is a great book. But why not, you know, a 50-year retrospective for the 50th anniversary?

    D&D 5E (2014) Christopher Perkins Talks About The Return of Vecna, Venger, & More D&D Villains

    D&D has so many classic villains, many from Greyhawk (and imprted into FR in many cases), that's it's odd the pool is this shallow. Admittedly, in recent years some classics have made an appearance: Demogorgon, Orcus, Acererak, Iggwilv, Tiamat, Strahd. But man, lurking out there ... Bargle...

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    So I decided to bite the bullet and order a starter set and some Commander decks. We'll see how that shapes up, but ti looks like that will get me a lot of different themed cards without any randomness.

    Smaug: Wyvern or Dragon?

    Great, so now I'm picturing a fire-breathing millipede.

    Smaug: Wyvern or Dragon?

    So what I'm learning is: Four Legs Good; Two Legs Bad.

    Perfect for an RPG set in the Burger & Cola Wars.

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    Chonky dragon was a highlight.

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    More of a flip, or perhaps a hop. I do think a D&D movie with a stronger story, focusing less on selling D&D and trying to be a weaksauce Marvel spinoff, could still succeed. Pick a Drizzt novel or do a decent adaptation of Dragonlance. Don't make the main title D&D! Have it stand alone ...
