After getting the Player’s Handbook and Dungeon Master’s Guide, we finally got our hands on a copy of the Monster Manual. According to Wizards of the Coast, the 2024 Dungeons & Dragons Monster Manual is the biggest D&D monster manual ever. The book has over 500 total monsters and over 85 brand new monsters for DMs to choose from to challenge their […]

The talent and psionics was something MCDM has been promising since the very beginning of their company. I can assume that it took this long to come out due to how it makes sure to create new mechanics for their spellcasting-like powers. They needed to feel special, and different enough to be […]

EPIC! I am loving this cover, and easily inspires me to create some sort of general of this sort as a villain. We are rapidly coming to an end with Arcadia so let’s enjoy the few articles we still have left before the company decides to offer other monthly products. I know they will be just as rad as the ones from […]

I just end up randomly remembering they exist and that’s when I give them away. This article looks to make these points much more important by giving them away through in-game mechanics, as well as giving them other uses. The article talks about ways inspiration can be given away when critical successes or failures occur. I believe these ways of handling […]

This month doesn’t particularly feel as if it was following some theme as many others have done before.

The constant within this and the previous ones is that you won’t want to miss this issue either! As James indicates in his letter from the editor, September’s issue is […]

So put on your ooze-handling gloves and let’s jump in! You can check out previous articles in this series where I cover: Elementals, Constructs, […]
