Planescape was an important milestone in my progression as a player and DM when I got a copy of the boxed set as a teenager in the 1990’s. When I got into Advanced D&D I was immediately excited for the “Forgotten Realms” which seemed so FANTASTIC and so MASSIVE, and then the Ravenloft – Realms…
Tabletop Review – Dungeons and Dragons – Phandelver and Below – The Shattered Obelisk
I’ve written about this elsewhere, but I started my RPG-adventures with the final D&D Basic box sometime around 1993 (yes Basic apparently still was getting reissued in 1993). In the late 90’s early 2000’s I stopped playing and got back in around 2015, just in time for D&D 5E to hit, I got the 3…
Tabletop Review – D&D – Spelljammer – Adventures in Space – Wizards of the Coast
I have been waiting for Wizards of the Coast to bring Spelljammer back to D&D since I got back into D&D. When I was younger I would pretty much grab any AD&D book I thought would fit into my campaign and looked cool, and I remember one week my FLGS had a bunch of older…
Tabletop Review – Dungeons and Dragons – Journey Through the Radiant Citadel – Wizards of the Coast
Journey Through the Radiant Citadel is a mix of short adventures that players and DM’s can either play as one or two shots, or slot into an going campaign. Aside from that it also works as an way of establishing the Radiant Citadel itself, a new location situated in the Ethereal Plane. When Journey Through…
Tabletop Review – Dungeons & Dragons – Critical Role : Call of the Netherdeep (Wizards of the Coast)
The latest Dungeons and Dragons book is Critlcal Role – Rise of the Netherdeep, the second in the line of Critical Role branded books for D&D 5th edition after the Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount. I have to admit I didn’t really have an interest in this book, as I don’t watch much critical role except…
Tabletop Review – Dungeons and Dragons – Wild Beyond the Witchlight – Wizards of the Coast
I’ve been playing Dungeons and Dragons, basically since 2E in the early 90’s. I say basically since my first edition was a “Classic” box I bought earlier. If there is one thing D&D (or AD&D when I started) was and is known for it is combat. For the last year and a half I’ve been…
Tabletop Review – Dungeons and Dragons – Fizban’s Treasure of Dragons – Wizards of the Coast
So I had heard rumors of Dragonlance coming back to Dungeons and Dragons in 2021, and what I had hoped that meant was the campaign setting as a whole, what we ended up getting was nonetheless an awesome option that is written from the perspective of one of the settings most famous characters Fizban the…
Tabletop Review – Dungeons and Dragons – Van Richten’s Guide to Ravenloft – Wizards of the Coast
About a year ago I asked on the official Ravenloft subreddit (or the closest thing to it), if anyone knew if Wizards of the Coast would ever bring Ravenloft fully back to Dungeons and Dragons. Curse of Strahd in my view was a great release, but in my view it was just an amped up…
Tabletop Review – Dungeons & Dragons – Candlekeep Mysteries – Wizards of the Coast
Candlekeep Mysteries is the Dungeons & Dragons book I have personally been waiting for… Sort of. When I got back into D&D during 5E I was admittedly without content to play with, Wizards of the Coast has made sure players had LOADS of campaign content, Curse of Strahd, Icewind Dale, Prince of the Apocalypse, and…
Tabletop Review – Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything (Wizards of the Coast/Dungeons and Dragons 5E)
During my first decade-long go around with D&D (then AD&D 2E) in the 90’s, there was an over-abundance of material that went along with the game. At the time I loved it, in fact, I consider one of the great tragedies of my existence is my Mother dumping all my 2E stuff long after I…
