Dungeons & Dragons: Dragonlance – Shadow of the Dragon Queen

They said it wouldn’t happen, but they were wrong. It’s finally here, Dragonlance has been brought to fifth edition D&D. That’s right, today I’m going to talk about Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queen. But before I dive right in, I want to be clear about what this review is and what it isn’t. You see, there were two very...

Third Party D&D: The Book of the Righteous (Green Ronin Publishing)

Now that I’m finally caught up on all of the official (and even the semi-official) D&D releases, I can finally jump back into the wonderful world of third-party supplements. To date, the only third-party D&D releases I’ve really discussed have been a handful of monster books by Kobold Press and the two Tal’dorei campaign settings. But there’s so much more...

Dungeons & Dragons: The Temple of Elemental Evil (Official Reprint)

I suppose if I had to pick a D&D adventure to discuss for Halloween, I couldn’t do much better than the legendary Temple of Elemental Evil. Of all the classic D&D modules I played when I was young, this is the one that I’ve carried around in my head more than any other. Everything an old grognard like me loves...

Dungeons & Dragons: Spelljammer – Adventures in Space

At long last, one of the most sought after and infamous campaign settings is finally here for Fifth Edition D&D… Spelljammer is back! As someone who spent quite a lot of time playing Second Edition, I remember the original release of Spelljammer quite fondly. So, it goes without saying that I was extremely excited to learn that it was finally...

Dungeons & Dragons: Castle Amber (Official Reprint)

As an old school gamer, I’m a huge fan of the Original Adventures Reincarnated line by Goodman Games. I’ve reviewed the first four releases on this page before. But in case you’re unfamiliar it, the “OAR” project is an ongoing attempt to both preserve and modernize a number of classic D&D adventure modules. These releases typically include a reprint of...

Dungeons & Dragons: Journeys Through the Radiant Citadel

Today I’m going to take a look at the latest D&D release, Journeys Through the Radiant Citadel. This book, like a handful of other Fifth Edition D&D products, is a collection of small adventures. But unlike those other books, it can be argued that this release also serves as a new campaign setting as well. There’s thirteen adventure modules crammed...

Dungeons & Dragons: The Lost City (Official Reprint)

It’s no secret that I love classic D&D. And, for what it’s worth, I think Goodman Games’ line of Original Adventures Reincarnated is some of the best content available for fifth edition. To date, I’ve discussed the first three releases in this line and each one has been an absolute masterpiece. Today, I’m going to take a look at the fourth...

Dungeons & Dragons: Mordenkainen Presents – Monsters of the Multiverse

For some time now I’ve been mentioning the upcoming “refresh” of Fifth Edition D&D. While the actual revamp of the core rulebooks is still a ways off, the first product in this new line of thinking is finally here; Monsters of the Multiverse! In reality, this book has been available for a while now as part of the Rules Expansion...

Dungeons & Dragons: Essentials Kit

Having recently reviewed the two alternative starter sets for fifth edition D&D, I wanted to also take a moment to discuss another similar product; the D&D Essentials Kit. Now, I’ll be the first to address to elephant in the room. Do we really need another “starter” set for D&D? The original Starter Set was excellent. I understand that the Stranger...
