    D&D (2024) New D&D Edition's Player’s Handbook Alternate Art Cover Reveal

    You aren't imagining that, and I don't recall it being specifically addressed. My assumption has been that the decision to stagger the releases of the core books across five months probably freed up enough printing capacity to be able to do the special covers.

    D&D (2024) New D&D Edition's Player’s Handbook Cover Reveal

    They are also mentioned in X10: Red Arrow, Black Shield.

    D&D (2024) How Does Greyhawk Fit In To The New Edition?

    Chapter 1 of Ghosts is a 29-page setting guide for Saltmarsh. To be clear, I still think Greyhawk will be added to the DMsGuild, but Ghosts is an unusual exception to the general pattern of adding settings once published.

    D&D (2024) How Does Greyhawk Fit In To The New Edition?

    Well, except the precedent that Greyhawk wasn't opened up after Ghosts of Saltmarsh...

    Cost of D&D Editions, then and now

    Indeed. I think it is fair to say, no matter how you do the comparison, the 2024 core books are excellent value for money compared to all of their ancestors!

    Cost of D&D Editions, then and now

    Personally, I think it's fair to compare list prices at launch. After all, we don't know that $49.99 is necessarily the price that the book will be selling at a year from now.

    Cost of D&D Editions, then and now

    At that price, it's almost the cheapest PHB per page ever, beaten only by the 2000 version. Players Handbook (June 1978, 128p): $9.95 --> $47.66 (37c/page) Players Handbook (October 1983, 128p): $15.00 --> $46.39 (36c/page) Player's Handbook (April 1989, 256p): $20.00 --> $50.74 (20c/page)...

    D&D General The thread where I review a ton of Ravenloft modules

    You are correct. The version available for free download from the WotC archive (still available here) does indeed include the back cover of the second printing.

    D&D General The thread where I review a ton of Ravenloft modules

    Aha! You must have a second printing of that module, to which the level range was added. It isn't there on mine, and I definitely bought a first print. Presumably the PDF scan was also of a first print. I wasn't aware that it had been reprinted, but since it was the first adventure for the...

    D&D General The thread where I review a ton of Ravenloft modules

    I've now spent far too much time investigating this and there really doesn't seem be any official indication of the level range for Feast of Goblyns anywhere. There are several places online which agree that it is for level 4-7, but I can't find an authoritative source for that level range. I...

    D&D General Monster ENCyclopedia: Aarakocra

    This article has been updated to include recent aarakocra appearances in the Spelljammer and Planescape sets, as well as—of course!—cover Councillor Jarnathan from the D&D movie.

    D&D General The thread where I review a ton of Ravenloft modules

    Fraternity of Shadows (a reliable Ravenloft fan site) has it listed as for level 4-7.

    WotC Vecna Eve of Ruin: Everything You Need To Know

    I'm thinking you answered one of your own questions there. I strongly suspect that Lost Mine of Phandelver will easily make the cut for the top 50 adventures of all-time list.

    WotC Vecna Eve of Ruin: Everything You Need To Know

    Your understanding of "retread of a previous adventure" is clearly slightly broader than mine, which is fine. That still leaves at least Lost Mine of Phandelver, Out of the Abyss, Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, Baldur's Gate: Descent Into Avernus, Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden, Candlekeep...

    WotC Vecna Eve of Ruin: Everything You Need To Know

    D&D General Monster ENCyclopedia: Peryton

    After a more than six year gap, this article has been updated, as follows: All the new fifth edition appearances of the peryton have been added. All the missing images have been rescanned and added back in, along with nearly a dozen new pictures from various sources. A handful of additional...

    D&D General What Edition was it?

    If it helps, that's about what I got when I looked at this again for the first time in ±14 years :D

    D&D General What Edition was it?

    Here we go, bear in mind that this was first posted on ENWorld way back in 2010. This was the first of eight trivia quizzes. I'll repost the others if there is any interest. Do you have a good memory for obscure Dungeons & Dragons facts and names, or an encyclopedic knowledge of D&D history...

    D&D General What Edition was it?

    Yes. Way back in 2010, I did a series of D&D trivia quizzes. They were multiple choice, but extremely difficult. I still have them somewhere, let me go check.
