IGN has an article on some new D&D Lego minifigures (LEGO Reveals New Star Wars Set and Dungeons & Dragons Line at Comic-Con - Exclusive - IGN): I love the concept but it would be great if it was more for playing than for displaying. I'd love to see customisable PCs with simpler, more...

The UK's Royal Mail is releasing a set of 50th Anniversary D&D stamps. They're different from the US ones, and have new art from Wayne Reynolds. You can get the stamps in a presentation pack, or individual stamps enlarged and framed, along with stamp books and collector's sheets. The Royal...

I'm looking at using the new Weapon Mastery Properties to introduce an active Defense variant (refreshing the current option I've been using in the 5e version of the Tome of Variance - the A5E version is good as it is). Both variants here use contested attack rolls. This gives a defense that...
