Tabletop RPG

It's been a busy year for Dungeons and Dragons, with a mountain of new book releases — and more D&D books are due before the end of the year.

I understand that for a lot of people, running a TTRPG campaign is stressful enough -- we all want to do a good job and make sure our players have fun -- so that when it comes to starting off your campaign there's just no time or energy in the budget left for anything other than the usual start point, the trusty everybody meets in a tavern approach.

Dungeons and Dragons' forthcoming film Honor Among Thieves debuted its first look trailer on Thursday, the first day of the San Diego Comic Con.

D&D's Unearthed Arcana playtest content has been showing us all sorts of new ideas for Dungeons and Dragons 5e, from the power of primordial giants to the cosmic reaches of the Astral Plane to the world of Krynn, home of the Dragonlance campaign setting.

Whether you have the idea of playing a quick-witted Rogue with a pair of daggers or a juggernaut of a Barbarian wielding a pair of massive swords, in D&D 5e that's called two-weapon fighting, or dual wielding.

I haven't been running as many TTRPG games lately as I'm used to, so when I got to run our latest D&D Spectacular, I very deliberately went into it throwing everything I possibly could at the players.

I was on the Atlantic coast a couple weeks back, and I like to explore the various environments that I don't normally get a chance to see near my central piedmont home.

Some DMs will tell you that as a new Dungeon Master you should be aiming to craft your own world and personally design each and every adventure your party embarks on.

I've mentioned before that it's okay to not always know all the rules when running an RPG.

The latest D&D Unearthed Arcana playtest content offers a host of new class options themed around Giants, so anyone wanting to add a little might to their martial character will have options other than the recently-added Rune Knight Fighter.
