Wizards of the Coast have just launched a new website, followed by a trailer, tying all of their upcoming Underdark products together ( link here). Just wanted to know what you guys think of this? Personally, I am really excited about all of the upcoming products. I'm a great fan of tiles and map packs. I love campaign settings. I love DnD minis. I love DM Toolbooks. It's shaping up to be a great summer. Just hoping that there is some way we can get our hands on the PAX East exclusive here in the UK. I've asked the powers that be, and here's hoping there is some sort of respone!

Yes trailer does tickle the taste-buds  Having always had a soft spot for the Drow of the Realms I too am looking forward to this summers Drow extravaganza. It would be great if they released the convention exclusives for us mere mortals unable to attend but I guess thats what makes conventions that little bit special.  From the line of products due for release it looks like its going to be an expensive summer for me - not that I mind though.

Out of curiousity, who did you ask? I was hoping to send a few emails after PAX was over, to see if we could get it for a tweetup to tie into the book release and start of the new encounters, but if you've already approached them, I'm not sure it would be right for me to approach them as well.

Chris Tulach tweeted earlier this week that anyone wanting to run "The Sun Never Rises" prequel adventure from PAX-East at a con in April or May was to contact him. As I'm sure many of you are aware, BlindGeekUK and the UKTweetup gang have now organised the UK D&D Drowathon ( ukdnddrowathon.wordpress.com/) for Saturday May 12th in Nottingham at Mondo Comico (see the blog for more details) What some of you may not be aware of is that you can also take part tomorrow at Con-Quest 2012, t the Assembly Rooms, Derby, where I shall be running a table through the adventure around about 11:30-14:00, available for 4-6 players (though 1 seat has already been claimed) and utilising pregenerated characters. Hope to see some of you there or at the event in May

At the moment, the Drowathon details are spread out across multiple places... The blog: ukdnddrowathon.wordpress.com/ contains the majority of the information, details our fundraising, shows off the pics of the 3d terrain we're building etc. The East Midlands RPG meetup group had the original announcement: www.meetup.com/EMRPGG/messages/boards/th... and seems to be where everyone is signing up: www.meetup.com/EMRPGG/events/60101992/My twitter feeds: twitter.com/#!/adampageuk and twitter.com/#!/ukdndtweetup often contains sneak peeks before the information hits the blog. The UKDnDTweetup account is a good account to look at its following list, it's kind of a who's who of the UK D&D scene. At the moment, we've got freebies from some of the companies selling D&D minis in the UK, so everyone attending the Drowathon will get a free drow mini. We've also got a prize for the player with the most drow kills during the game.

A quick reminder for anyone interested that ukdnddrowathon.wordpress.com/ is only two short weeks away. The streets of Nottingham will run with the blood of the Dark Elves! More details have been added to the blog (link above) about not only this event but also the other exciting plans for the Rise of the Underdark series throughout the year as well as insider information on the DM's running the adventures, notes from the authors and more! So go check it out and prepare for the Drow are coming and darkness will fall across the land.

ukdnddrowathon.wordpress.com/ is only days away and looks like we're up to 4 tables of gamers now. The UKTweetup team have outdone themselves once more and Mondo Comico have opened their doors to the dark tide of Drow in the opening events of "Rise of the Underdark". Forget the night, in the Underdark EVERYTHING is dark and full of terrors! (and their coming for us all)
