Systems, trailers, & expectations around D20's Burrow's End

The release of Dimension 20’s 20th season trailer for Burrow’s End caused a bit of a stir on TTRPG Twitter, and I just want to unpack it a little bit. The main tension lies within Dimension 20’s choice to continue to put out shows that use D&D 5e as its system (though often with homebrewing and hacks). The trailer’s tone is less comedic than most seasons, starting with a solemn voiceover by GM…

Guide to Unlocking HMRC's R&D Tax Relief

Many UK companies that have submitted claims for Research and Development (R&D) tax relief have expressed frustration with HMRC’s stringent approach. HMRC often rejects claims, stating it has consulted “internal specialists,” such as IT experts, and is not convinced that the company’s activities qualify as R&D. This stance persists even when companies provide additional evidence or offer to meet…

Revisiting 5e SRD Competencies

I took a big bite out of multiple 5e SRD product lines for this one, and hopefully its worth your time to come along on this ride with me, as we look at Kobold Press and Ghostfire Gaming and their 5e SRD offerings, and the trends within them. #5eSRD

A while back I did an article looking at the core competencies of Wizards of the Coast and Kobold Press. I wanted to do this more as a ranking, to avoid outright saying that any aspect of the company’s output is bad. If the company is compelling enough for me to spend time writing about it, I have respect for their work, and have enjoyed engaging with their material. Who Is In This Time? While…

D&D 5e's alignment trap

The 5e alignment system is a useful shorthand and a misleading trap. The Outer Planes as presented in the 2014 Player’s Handbook and Dungeon Master’s Guide only make the alignment system’s problems worse. The perfect overlap between alignments and planes—and the total lack of alternative Outer Planes—reinforces the alignment system’s worst inclinations: easy stereotyping, reductionist thinking,…

Bringing Majora's Mask Into My Dungeons & Dragons Campaign

I got to unveil another old secret in my last D&D session. This one was less old since it was the result of the game of The Ground Itself we finished in December of 2022, but that was also a long time ago and everyone knows they're in a time loop now!

This time, it was only three weeks between sessions for my recently resurrected Dungeons and Dragons campaign (the one I call The Leeching Wastes) and it was only three instead of the originally planned two because two of the players got sick. Which means this is the first time this group has had two consecutive sessions in way more than a year. In this session, after a quick review of what…

Larian won't be making Baldur's Gate 4 because they are moving on from D&D

Larian has been clear that its next project would not be a sequel to the wildly successful Baldur’s Gate 3. However, it seems like Larian doesn’t intend on ever making Baldur’s Gate 4, and actually plans on leaving the Dungeons & Dragons license behind. Larian Studios head-honcho Swen Vincke addressed the topic during his Game Developers Conference talk, saying that the team will be ‘moving away…

NaNoWriMo with a TTRPG Twist: Day 13

Happy Monday, fellow adventurers and GMs! I’ve been looking forward to sharing this one, but held off for the 13th…which, in hindsight, doesn’t make as much sense as using this on the 5th or saving it for the 20th. That’ll make sense in a couple of sentences, I promise. This is another one that you can run in just about any system you’d like with some tinkering and retooling, but it was…
