UK Launch Event for 4E at The London Dungeon

dpmcalister — Tue, 06 May 2008 13:32:56 +0000

UK gamers are invited to join Wizards of the Coast, the UK D&D team, and Leisure Games in celebrating the UK launch of Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition at The London Dungeon. The event takes place the evening of Friday, 6 June in central London.

Tied in to Worldwide D&D Game Day, which takes place the following day, the UK launch party will feature 4E play in the form of the WWDDGD adventure, along with D&D miniatures, Three-Dragon Ante, and Inn-Fighting. In addition, we’ll have snacks, drinks, and a load of dungeony goodness. Best of all, we’ll be joined by the UK WotC and D&D staff, along with lead 4E designer Rob Heinsoo, who’s coming all the way from Renton, Washington in the US. Rob will be available to answer questions, share a few secrets and sneak peeks, maybe run a couple encounters, and generally hang out. (more…)

[Postmortem Studios] Hentacle - 4/Play

dpmcalister — Fri, 02 May 2008 14:29:38 +0000

4/Play is the third and final supplement for Hentacle and contains two new girls and a plethora of new cards for you game with a new and interesting ‘!’ card to sabotage other players.

4/Play also contains new rules for playing Hentacle head to head until only one player is left standing and for a simplified version of this VS play that does away with point scoring.

This new way to play is a sneak preview of the forthcoming Cthentacle!

D&D 4e Preview Review

dpmcalister — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 09:47:26 +0000

Late last month, UK Role Players was invited to participate in a pre-launch preview game of D&D4e by those fine chaps at Esdevium Games. I was unable to attend myself so Halfbat agreed to represent us. He really enjoyed himself and has written a Preview Review so that everyone can see what 4e is going to be like. You can find it in the Reviews section (or, directly, here).

The Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game has defined the medieval fantasy genre and the tabletop RPG industry for more than 30 years. In the D&D game, players create characters that band together to explore dungeons, slay monsters, and find treasure. The 4th Edition D&D rules offer the best possible play experience by presenting exciting character options, an elegant and robust rules system, and handy storytelling tools for the Dungeon Master.
