Add to your tabletop collection for less with these Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals

I’ve often said that collecting tabletop RPGs is a different hobby from playing them. But whether you’re looking to add to your never ending bookshelf and/or PDF collection, or you actually want something you intend to run at a table in the near future, you can stretch your money a little further by taking advantage of some of these Black Friday and Cyber Monday tabletop deals!

• There’s a D&D Black Friday sale on D&D Beyond; lots of materials, both first and third party, are anywhere from 15% to 50%. Most of them are around 20-25% off, but maybe this is the perfect time for you to pick up a 20% discounted Curse of Strahd or a slightly cheaper Spelljammer!
• Pinnacle Entertainment, the folks who bring you Savage Worlds, are having what they’re calling “Vlack Friday” — the V standing for virtual, as a ton of their virtual tabletop bundles, box sets, and assets (for Foundry VTT, Roll20, and Fantasy Grounds) are all at a deep discount. If you’re in the center of the Venn diagram of “plays on a virtual tabletop” and “plays Savage Worlds“… here you go!
• Indie RPG superstore Exalted Funeral is having a massive sale on all kinds of things, not just tabletop RPGs — 25% off shirts and merch, 40% off of EF-published books, 50% off of EF-published zines, and 30% off of anything else! My recommendations: tarot-powered dungeon crawler His Majesty the Worm, the boxed set for rules-light brave mouse adventuring game Mausritter, the weirdo karmapunk Doom Patrol/Persona inspired Maximum Recursion Depth, and lots of books for the enduring OSR classic Old School Essentials.
• Tabletop Bookshelf is selling a wide variety of things at up to 70% off, and they offer some standouts. Eat the Reich is a game geared towards one-shots or two-shots about vampires fighting the Nazis. Paranoia, the classic gonzo game of clones and obeying Friend Computer is a great pick. They also offer a game we recently played on Tavern Watch and had a ball with, Sentai and Sensibility, which is exactly what it sounds like — think Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers meets Sense and Sensibility and you’ve got the idea.
• Indie Press Revolution is having a Black Onyx Friday Sale, during which select Onyx Path games and products are on sale — including Chronicles of Darkness books Deviant: The Renegades and Dark Eras 2.
• You can get some deep discounts off things from Magpie Games right now: 80% off select products, 40% off accessories for the Avatar Legends RPG, and 25% off everything else. This makes it a great time to grab the Avatar Legends starter set, some really sweet Avatar dice, the absolutely stellar teenage superhero game Masks: A New Generation, or Mark Diaz Truman’s absolutely excellent look at Mexico’s eternal drug war, Cartel.
• If you’re into the Cypher System, Monte Cook Games is having a Black Friday and “Cypher Weekend” sale — discounts start at 10% for all purchases under $75 USD, and get more discounted the more you buy. Personal recommendations: the Cypher System core rulebook, the fascinatingly weird Numenera, and superhero game Claim the Sky. Also if someone wants to buy me the Invisible Sun box set, I wouldn’t say no. (At $316.00 for the print and PDF version, you immediately get MCG’s 50% Black Friday discount!)
• Popular virtual tabletop Roll20 is having a variety of sales on digital products for their platform this weekend — 40% off various D&D bundles and adventures, 30% off all kinds of assets and maps, and a one-day 50% flash sale on Free League Publishing’s The Walking Dead Universe Starter Set.
• As predicted, Modiphius has a Black Friday sale today, as well, with deep discounts all over their store. The entirety of the Achtung! Cthulhu line seems to be discounted, the Dishonored core rules are a paltry $13, their extremely good Dune core rulebooks are on sale (including the extremely snazzy-looking collector’s editions), as well as — breaking away from TTRPGs for a second — the Skyrim Adventure Board Game.

Also, while we don’t have anything specifically to note from these sites because they’re playing their cards close to the chest when it comes to sales, keep an eye on DriveThruRPG — they typically announce sales on Black Friday itself. You can pick up something new and exciting this holiday and be ready to play it in (let’s be real) January when everyone’s schedules quit being a nightmare!
