And now the work begins… The RPG Bloggers Campaign Setting
The deadline has officially passed to enter the RPG Bloggers Campaign setting, and now the fun begins. There are exactly 30 bloggers ready to take on the task of designing a fully playable, system-neutral, campaign world. I am excited.

New release tuesday…
Went down to my FLGS yesterday to see what new releases they had in, and I was pleasantly surprised. Being a TV guy when I’m not busy being the NewbieDM, these games caught my eye, and I had to pick them up. The first game is based on a favorite show of mine from the […]

“Make yourself a monster” day!
Today is make yourself a monster day around the RPG Blogs, and while the NewbieDM is monstrous enough with this crazy beard I’ve grown (for no apparent reason), I’m instead guest blogging a self-made monster for another member of the RPG community.

Question – Should WOTC have also showcased Dungeon Delve at gameday?
In the interest of full disclosure, I ask this without actually participating in D&D Gameday, as it was my kid’s birthday today… But based on reports I’ve read around the blogosphere, the module “One Dark Night in Weeping Briar” ran waaaaay long.

Podcasts can be a newbie dm’s best tool
If you’ve never played D&D or are looking to DM but aren’t sure how, you should probably listen to actual play podcasts to help you fine tune your skills. Actual play is just that, recordings of groups of people playing D&D. The Wizard’s website is currently hosting a series of actual play podcasts they did […]
