What's funny is a couple of my players have pondered the same question - why doesn't WotC release an API, loosen the wording of the GSL to allow 3PPs to produce software, and make some decent Apps, programs, and other tools happen? One of my players works for GEEK Squad, and he pointed to the...

If you are a D&D Insider subscriber like I am, then yesterday you received an email from Wizards of the Coast announcing the release of the new online version of Adventure Tools: Monster Builder. If you have never used the previous version of Adventure Tools: Monster Builder, it was a...

If you are a DM, and you run a D&D campaign for a long enough period of time, there are three possible outcomes to all your hard work and effort: 1) Your Players will decide they want to try new and different characters, and will want to restart the campaign; 2) Changes in the “real lives” of...

I have been a role-player and gamer now for over three decades now, ever since I chanced to pick up this game called Advanced Dungeons & Dragons back in 1978. And over the years, I’ve played a lot of different RPG systems – D&D (every edition!), GURPS, Traveler, Champions, Paranoia, Runequest...

Alright folks! It’s time to step away from the gaming table, pop some popcorn, grab a case of your favorite soda, and kick back with your fellow D&D enthusiasts to watch the new Dungeons & Dragons (2-Movie Collection)...

As though alluding to the great Blizzard of 2011, the first issue of Kobold Quarterly for the New Year carries with it the somewhat forboding subtitle of “Digging Deathtraps All Winter”. But as the self-proclaimed “Switzerland of the Edition Wars”, the recently released Kobold Quarterly Issue...

Overall, given the products you already have, I would have to admit that the DM Kit does not offer you much more than a few tokens and some modules. But remember, the DM Kit is really designed to be a Essentials Core Product, and is a starting point for brand new gamers, new to 4E, to have the...

My bad... I should have put the link to the product on RPGNow.com: City Slices I: Marketplace Fun I'm glad you enjoyed the review, and always happy to recommend a good product to my fellow DMs.

Cities and towns in most 4E campaign worlds are designed to be “points of light”, and are havens from the dangerous and deadly locales frequented by heroes. But in many campaigns, cities end up just being places to buy and sell treasure, restock rations and adventuring gear, and are...
