I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Critical Role has become a big deal for D&D. To date, we’ve seen the publication of one official and two unofficial Critical Role campaign books for fifth edition. This is no small accomplishment! The Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount brought the world of Critical Role into the official D&D cannon – something...
Its no secret that I’m a big fan of the Original Adventures Reincarnated line by Goodman Games. To date, I’ve discussed the first two installments in this series. Both of which were legendary D&D modules of great renown. I’m happy to report that the trend continues with the third entry in this line up: Expedition to the Barrier Peaks. If...

I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again; it seems like you can’t mention Dungeons & Dragons these days without someone bringing up Critical Role. The web show/podcast has taken the world by storm and introduced a legion of new fans to the hobby. This is something that every D&D fan should be grateful for. Personally speaking, I was...
It’s been a while since I talked about Into the Borderlands, the first “Original Adventures Reincarnated” project.

I love retro D&D and it appears that I’m not alone in my...

The D&D world has been buzzing lately. In the last couple months, word has leaked that a revision of 5th Edition will be hitting the store shelves in the next couple years. Between now and then, Wizards of the Coast has promised to take 5E to places that fans have been asking for since its inception. Of course, they’ve not...

When I was kid just learning the ropes, the majority of D&D players were old wargamers who were more interested in number crunching and dungeon crawling than in actual role playing. These days, thanks to services like Youtube and Twitch, the...

Today I’m going to try something a little bit different. Usually when I discuss Dungeons & Dragons, it is to talk about a book or provide an update on my home game. But there’s so many aspects of this hobby that can be of interest. For example, accessories are an absolutely crucial element to any D&D campaign. Now, when you...
Whenever I manage to get caught up on my reviews of official D&D products, I like to delve into the deep waters of third-party releases. To date, I’ve focused on releases from Kobold Press. This publishing house is renown for their quality products. As I’ve discussed on this site in the past, I’ve been extremely impressed with their monster collections;...
For me, Ravenloft has always been one of the most fascinating settings for Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve had a fascination with gothic horror. This is something that originally stemmed from viewing old Universal Monster movies as a young child. Then, around the age of thirteen I got my hands on an old copy...
