Tabletop RPG

One of the fun things about Dungeons and Dragons is looking at all the cool options that you'll probably never actually get to play, because there's just not enough time to play sixteen D&D games in a week.

Somebody having to step away from a recurring session of Dungeons and Dragons is something every party will have to contend with eventually.

There's a tradition behind Wizards of the Coast's Unearthed Arcana which goes all the way back to the original Advanced Dungeons and Dragons line of games, before even 2nd Edition AD&D or the consolidation of both lines into what we called 3rd Edition.

Every Dungeons and Dragons Dungeon Master has been there.

This post was inspired by two things: seeing that Riot Games are getting back into making tabletop games, and the recent announcement of the Explorer's Guide to Wildemount, a sanctioned Wizards of the Coast product featuring the campaign setting seen every week on Critical Role.

Tabletop Role Playing Games have really seen a bit of a resurgence lately, thanks to programs like Critical Role, Stranger Things and The Adventure Zone.

This all started when I was given a copy of Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus by Wizards of the Coast, and while I do think it's brilliant, I wanted you to know they gave me one up front.

There have been a lot of really great superhero RPGs in the history of the genre.

Perhaps you're looking to take your Dungeons and Dragons game to a face-to-face format.
