Featured Game: Dungeons & Dragons

The featured game this week is: Dungeons & Dragons from Wizards of the Coast

Wizards has just released the fifth edition of Dungeons & Dragons and it's proving to be one of the best, if not the best editions yet.

After a two year playtest this new edition of D&D brings the best parts of all previous editions and puts them into one awesome game.

I will be doing very quick dungeon crawls throughout the night and giving people a chance to check out this amazing game. I'll have pre-generated characters, miniatures and everything players will need.

For the game give away we will be giving away copies of the D&D Starter Set. This great box is the perfect introduction to the world of Roleplaying and Dungeons & Dragons.

Edit: date change!

Due to a Magic The Gathering pre-release event on September 20th, this event had to be moved to October 4th

June 15th - Worldwide Dungeons and Dragons Game Day and Free RPG Day!

Saturday June 15th is a great day to be a roleplayer. Not only is it Worldwide Dungeons & Dragons Game Day, it's also Free RPG Day! Both of these events will be supported by FLGS Hugin & Munin

Worldwide Dungeons & Dragons Day

The D&D Vault of the Dracolich Game Day is a multi-table roleplaying event that brings communities of players together for a shared gaming experience.

Vault of the Dracolich is a D&D Next adventure designed for four to six 4th-level characters, in an epic quest to retrieve a magic item hidden away by a powerful dracolich. This adventure is intended to be playable in 2 to 5 hours at your local Wizards Play Network location.Players will be divided into multiple tables, each with their own Dungeon Master, with an event coordinator leading the action.

What Do I Need to Play?

This Game Day will run using the latest D&D Next playtest rules available for download at dndnext.com.

Playtest agreement sheets are included in the Game Day kit for players that do not sign up for the playtest before the event.

Deep in the forest of Cormanthor lies the hoard of the dracolich Dretchroyaster, the prize of which is a diamond staff rumored to unlock the secrets of an ancient elven kingdom. The sage Imani is seeking dozens of adventurers to launch an all-out assault on the undead dragon’s lair. The dracolich is a powerful foe—too great for even several parties to conquer—so it’s going to take all of the heroes’ courage, cunning, and speed to survive the dracolich’s deadly vault.

Vault of the Dracolich draws inspiration from the interactive format used at some gaming conventions. As part of this experience, players and DMs have the opportunity to communicate with other game tables, while the event coordinator takes on the role of the dracolich to menace each group.

Free RPG Day

Dungeons & Dragons Encounters: Search for the Diamond Staff

Wednesdays; June 12, 2013 - August 14, 2013 at Hugin Munin at 6PM

Dungeons & Dragons Encounters™ is an exciting weekly program that brings players to your store to experience a D&D® campaign that plays out one epic encounter at a time. Players will defeat enemies, solve puzzles, and perform heroic deeds.

During this 10 week season, players will adventure in the Dalelands of the Forgotten Realms®. Their quest is to recover the Diamond Staff of Chomylla, a powerful elven artifact that’s been stolen by orcs. Each session only takes 1-2 hours to complete, so it’s easy for players to fit in a game after school or work. D&D Encounters is built so that players can jump in any time. It’s easy to get involved any Wednesday night.

We will be using D&D Next rules and everyone interested in participating must sign the NDA. In addition everyone is encouraged to download the latest set of playtest rules at http://www.wizards.com/dnd/DnDNext.aspx

From what I understand so far if you play in Worldwide D&D day on the 15th you can carry your character over to this event.
