    Diamond Distributors Asks Bankruptcy Court For Ownership of Publishers' Consignment Inventory [UPDATED]

    Incorrect. They will almost certainly be considered creditors. But they will be unsecured creditors who will only get paid out of the proceeds from the residual estate after the secured creditors get paid. Which is likely very little. Diamond doesn’t really have a stake in this anymore...

    Diamond Distributors Asks Bankruptcy Court For Ownership of Publishers' Consignment Inventory [UPDATED]

    TL;DR version: 1) If Diamond's creditors knew this stuff belonged to the publishers, its UCC argument is wrong. The merchandise belongs to the publishers and isn't part of the bankruptcy estate. 2) If they didn't know, then the stuff is part of the bankrutpcy estate if the publishers didn't...

    RPG Print News – Call of Cthulhu, MÖRK BORG, and More

    How do you use these hex kits? They look interesting and I am running a D&D campaign set in Icewind Dale, so this looks like it could be useful.

    Dark Horse Reveals First Dungeons & Dragons Comic

    The Players Handbook said dwarves couldn’t be clerics. NPC dwarf clerics were possible but it wasn’t a playable combination under the rules.

    In AD&D, Dwarves could not be clerics.

    Dragon Delves Dedicated to Chris Perkins

    I really like listing all the monsters in that chapter. It’s something I do on my own with published adventurers, in part to prepare miniatures that I might use. Very helpful to have that work already done.

    Dark Horse Reveals First Dungeons & Dragons Comic

    The dwarf cleric is a deliberate provocation of old school D&D folks. I'm fine with it. But I know they were trying to trigger my reactionary soul.

    The ship looks cool. Is that really the right scale? I’ve never been able to figure it out.

    D&D 5E (2024) Dungeon Master's Guide Bastion System Lets You Build A Stronghold

    Has anyone done bastion/stronghold rules for ships? My players bought a ship and are currently traveling the world, making converts to their religion, establishing trade routes, and killing things. Would be cool to have rules for the development of the ship over time.

    D&D 5E (2024) Dungeon Master's Guide Bastion System Lets You Build A Stronghold

    One thing I’d like is better rules for a “party bastion.” My group of players has been playing together for years, mostly with the same characters, and if they are going to set up a bastion, they’d likely do it together and not build their own individually. In fact, they already have one...

    Magazines Dragon Reflections #82

    If the players want Battlestars and AT-ATs, I say let them have them. As someone else said, the answer to a Battlestar is Cylons. If the players have access to interdimensional tech weapons, so do the monsters. If you want to be playfully spiteful, make it clear that it was the PCs'...

    Map List for 2024 Dungeon Master's Guide Revealed

    I like the B&G products so much I wish they would go back and do adventures the preceded their project. It would be great to have a B&G version of Tomb of Annihilation or Storm King's Thunder. The big battle maps are almost worth the price alone. I know people will tell you that you can just...

    D&D General WizKids Opens Pre-Orders for Life Size Replicas Coming in 2025

    I’d be more interested in these if they were made of sturdier stuff. It would be run to have a displacer or a baby owl bear in my garden.

    D&D 5E (2024) Check Out The New Dungeon Master's Guide's Greyhawk Map

    I was looking at the map and my initial reaction was: “Oh, wow. They’ve gone back to before Narwell was changed to Warwell and the Pomarj conquered the Wild Coast up to Fax.” But now think about it, I’m pretty sure those were things that happened in my campaign and not in the published...

    D&D 5E (2014) Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks Would Like To Explore Kara-Tur

    A few thoughts about playing in a fantasy version of pre-colonization Americas. 1. It could be really fun to explore a world informed by the rich cultural and mythological background of pre-Colombian Americas. There’s so much variety and diversity between, say, the Iroquois and the Incas that...

    D&D 5E (2014) Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks Would Like To Explore Kara-Tur

    I guess I would ask: why is it wrong to sell people products that cater to fans of “pulp orientalism?” Is that just the wrong kind of fun for people to have? Why? A very fine answer to this, by the way, is that it is insensitive and hurtful to people or that a lot of the pulp orientalism is...

    D&D 5E (2014) Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks Would Like To Explore Kara-Tur

    One historical difficulty is that a lot of people who wanted to play D&D in an Asian-themed setting were not looking to play in a historically or even mythologically accurate version of the continent. They wanted to play the tropes, adventure through a world that largely existed in the western...
