    D&D General Art that exemplifies D&D to you.

    And maybe some original Chill? I don't recognize the above pieces, but it sure seems like an the style of an artist I remember really liking.

    Wyrmwood Gaming and COVID-19

    My wife works at a clinic, and the clinic shares a lobby with a hospital. I saw the Wyrmlife the day it came out and showed her. She's passed it along to the clinic's CEO. Lots of people stepping up. What did Mr. Rogers say? "Look for the helpers".

    D&D 5E (2014) Most User-Friendly VTT? (Dice Games In The Time of Covid)

    You can also post pictures in chat, and there are die roller macros. We just use it for voice chat, so Skype would be the same, but there are differences.

    D&D 5E (2014) Most User-Friendly VTT? (Dice Games In The Time of Covid)

    That's what we've done as well, with TeamSpeak before Discord came out. I find FG a lot more intuitive than Roll20 (and I was a Roll20 Kickstarter backer). There's just something about Roll20 that doesn't click with me, even though I've tried and tried. Plus I can't stand subscription fees...

    RPG Evolution: Playing Virtually? Don't Miss These Deals

    Is there any media out there showing Foundry in use? The little bit I can find looks good, but there doesn't seem to be much.

    Critical Role Wildemount releases tomorrow

    Don't know if this qualifies, it's probably a little long, but I figured it'd be something to point out. It's a Wildemount adventure from levels 1-3. https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/wa/frozen-sick

    Which Online Virtual Tabletop Do You Use?

    I will always take straight up paying over any kind of subscription service. Doesn't take much inattention and all of a sudden you realize you've way overpaid for what you've gotten.

    D&D 5E (2014) Wizards & Spells out March 10! Check out this overview of the Young Adventurer's Guide series

    When I introduced my nine-year old nephew to D&D last holiday season I gave him these books and he loved them. When we sat down to play he used them as references. For example when they encountered goblins (I think it was goblins) he was hesitant to attack them, and talked instead. He then...

    D&D 3.x D&D 3E Design: The Unbalanced Cleric

    It's PDF and physical (got mine at my FLGS) and it's EXCELLENT. https://site.pelgranepress.com/index.php/13th-age-glorantha/

    Kickstarter Tome of Beasts 2 Kickstarter Launched! D&D 5E

    Added to my "remind me" list. I introduced my nine year old nephew to D&D over Christmas and he took to it like a fish to water. The next day he had memorized most of the monsters in the Zub monster book! This could be a great Christmas present!

    D&D 5E (2014) Am I no longer WoTC's target audience?

    There are actually two UA's. One has Modern Magic and the other talks more about converting UA. https://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/my-new-d20-modern-campaign https://dnd.wizards.com/articles/unearthed-arcana/modern-magic Edit: that's two different UA's! Unearthed Arcana and Urban...

    D&D 5E (2014) Am I no longer WoTC's target audience?

    I dig Dark Sun, and like Planescape and Spelljammer, but if I had my druthers I'd put Urban Arcana at the top of the update list. :)

    Critical Role Explorer's Guide to Wildemount Rockets to #1 In 'All Books' on Amazon

    I think they'll start a new campaign this year at some point. Honestly, if they're smart they'll wrap up C2 a month or so before the animated series releases, take time to recharge and do publicity, and then start up C3 a couple weeks after the release. They really need to start looking at...

    Critical Role Explorer's Guide to Wildemount Rockets to #1 In 'All Books' on Amazon

    As mentioned in Mercer's post (and later backed up by a WotC tweet) this book had no effect on other planned releases. "Believe you me, I’m one of the those who is ever-shouting “I want my Planescape/Dark Sun”, and said so loudly… multiple times while in the WotC offices. Know that my setting...

    The Best Streams: Non D&D Edition

    I like "Wildcards" on the Saving Throw channel (also available as a podcast). Wildcards is a Savage Worlds AP that went through four or five seasons of Deadlands and is now on the third season of East Texas University. The GM is one of the best I've seen and I think they do a good job...

    Critical Role The New D&D Book Is 'The Explorer's Guide to [Critical Role's] Wildemount!' By Matt Mercer

    This is almost exactly what I've been speculating as well. I honestly don't think Spelljamming is as far away as it seems.

    Critical Role Here's The Official Wildemount Announcement!

    When a choice is made there are timelines that decay and disappear as the choice needed for them to solidify wasn't made. But... "An Echo Knight is able to tap into those dying timelines and temporarily pull a version of themself from that timeline and use it to fight alongside them." This is...

    Critical Role The New D&D Book Is 'The Explorer's Guide to [Critical Role's] Wildemount!' By Matt Mercer

    Mercer's tweet seems to address this: "Know that my setting doesn’t eliminate, delay, or consume any such plans they may have for any future-such projects! I’m not stepping on such wonderful legacy properties, these same ones that inspired me growing up. This is just the new-kid stepping into...
