10 years ago yesterday, Cloud Giant's Bargain was given out in theaters at an event where @penny-arcade.com played D&D live as Acquisitions Incorporated! I had the pleasure of writing this, while @scottfgray.bsky.social turned my words into magic! It is one of my favorite projects. #DnD #ttrpg

Yes, I’m happy in Italy! So great to see my parents and spend time with them here.

You know what I love in life? When a big mini just naturally has a claw that fits over another mini’s head!

Come visit Portland and my group and I will do this! I’m a huge fan of siege battles!

Last night’s #DrawSteel playtests! Demons with too many fangs and claws, then a wild battle with a ton of shadow elves!

Miniatures on a drawn battlemap, plus a few decorative items such as trees and carts.

Alligators in the sewers? In #DrawSteel , it’s slaughter demons in the sewers!

The heroes face a huge demon and several hobgoblins on a battlemap drawn to look like sewers.

Alphastream@alphastream· Jun 10

Playtesting #DrawSteel and the heroes have to stop Dalrath from burning! This was super fun! Lots of tough choices for the players.

Terrain shows five large houses and in the distance a castle wall. A small well is in the center and lots of hobgoblins are trying to set the houses on fire.

Last night’s #Daggerheart game. My Druid became an armadillo and we decided each form has a different voice and personality.

Happy 18th birthday to D&D 4E! On this day in 2008, this teenager set out to fix every mistake its parents made. The edition is getting more love than ever, inspiring games like the Draw Steel, Daggerheart, 13th Age 2E, and more!

Ravenloft: The Horrors Within - What Bites Just 3 years after Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft came out, Wizards began work on D&D's latest book, Ravenloft: The Horrors Within. Is what we want to see from future D&D releases? www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvIn... #DnD #TTRPG #Ravenloft

The cover of the Ravenloft Horrors Within book depicts Strahd on his throne after a night of debauchery, bodies strewn about the room. The title, What Really Bites, is superimposed in a bright purple text.

Another #DrawSteel playtest!

Ravenloft: The Horrors Within - What I Really Liked! My favorite of the new player options, new domains, and other design not found in Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEWh... #DnD #Ravenloft #TTRPG

I highly recommend this book!

Learn to Play the Crows RPG Playtest in 5 Rooms! In this technique, each room teaches a different part of the game so we quickly and easily learn this game’s key concepts! www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMec... #Crows #DrawSteel #TTRPG #DungeonJam2026 @hellomcdm.bsky.social @mysticartsdm.bsky.social

I’m really happy with how last night’s #DrawSteel playtest went. Really cool hero moves to take out hordes of minions, ladders, and catapults!
