I'm one of the lucky few that got it on the first day. One of many things that made my trip from western Canada worthwhile :) I have been playing D&D since 1st edition and have always looked forward to a new edition. While I was very underwhelmed by 4th edition, I sort of feel like my current...

If you play with player only crits, then combat for the players poses less risk as they are not fearful of the DM rolling 20's. As a player you gain all the benefits of scoring a crit, but have no fear of a crit being scored against you. No risk, but gain a reward. I have seen so many video...

I prefer a risk vs reward gaming style. When I DM, both players and the DM will always be able to crit.

To see all the Dragonlance minis current previewed: Dragonlance - War of the Dragon Queen: https://www.minisgallery.com/index.php?id=icons-of-the-realms-dragonlance-shadow-of-the-dragon-queen Dragonlance themed Warbands (Kalaman Military / Draconians / Dragon Army)...

I'm not a big fan of players that try to give a GM ultimatums. A GM should try to be fair though and if there is an action a player has declared, which the GM knows will be potentially fatal, then a GM should ask the player if they are sure and perhaps even point out the danger involved...

No they will not be. The blind booster will contain different minis. Here is what has been revealed so far: MinisGallery - D&D Spelljammer Adventures in Space

The flight stands they have been using for the last couple years are quite broad in diameter, very rigid and far less prone to breaking. I wouldn't really worry about them breaking.

Most of these will are on a 2-inch in diameter base, but there are some on a 1-inch base, and some on a 3-inch base. Here's the MinisGallery.com pages for all the pre-painted Spelljammer minis known at this time: Spelljammer Adventures in Space Spelljammer Ship Scale sets

Unfortunately, the costs for overseas production of mass-produced items like this (including the recently massively inflated shipping container prices) are so dramatically different from U.S. domestic costs that this will never really be a viable option. However, I know WizKids is exploring...

This campaign is still moving along at a great pace, even during the dreaded "middle days" of a Kickstarter campaign. The $38,000 reward level was just unlocked. Next up is the "Elven Barricades". They would also make a great substitute for a "wall of thorns" spell. Factions of Galladoria

Here is also another great reason to support this Kickstarter: SHIPPING For all USA based pledges of $50 or more shipping will be included. For all Canadian based Pledges of $100 or more shipping will be included. For all International pledges of $200 or more shipping will be included.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/galladoria/factions-of-galladoria Quality made, mass produced pre-painted terrain and accessories are not that common (dominated by WizKids and Dwarven Forge) so this crowd funding campaign really caught my eye. The Factions of Galladoria Kickstarter has...

This is correct. From a completely impartial viewpoint there is nothing wrong with it. In most current day cultures, the desecration of corpses is considered taboo and this is further reinforced by many religious beliefs and practices. In a fantasy world where cultural beliefs and religious...

I had an opportunity to review the price point of this mini with WizKids' Executive Director of RPG's which I posted here: My quick summary is this: The price of this mini is indeed high, however this was never the planned price point. Out of control shipping prices (6x normal) and high...

The kind folks at Dragori Games have shared with us (minisgallery.com) the 3D Image Renders of the painted miniature offerings that are available in this Kickstarter. (Note: the rendered images are not necessarily fully representative of what the final paint job will look like). You can view...

When I first saw this photo, I assumed it was a photo from a past convention, however I can see that many are wearing masks in the photo so indeed it is from 2021. I chose not to attend GenCon this year and that photo just gave me reassurance that I made the right choice. Here's a couple...

Starter Sets for WizKid's pre-painted miniature sets are typically sets of player character adventurers. It is an efficient way for WizKids to sell a package of popular player character minis, without people having to buy randomized blind boosters of minis. In case this may be on interest to...

At first I was sort of surprised to receive GenCon's e-mail that they are going ahead for 2021, but I believe they have clearly communicated that they are taking a cautious and medically informed approach, so I wish them all the best. Unfortunately there are many states which have continuously...

Interesting timing... this was just noticed in a Facebook advertisement today. Sadly the horn of the blue dragon was wrongly placed on his head instead of it's snout -- but apparently it matches the art it was based off of.

Nominations have concluded and voting has begun for the best Small, Medium, Large and Huge pre-painted minis of 2020...
