  • DumpStat Episode 80: DnD For Kids

    Wrangling a D&D party can be a feat, but what happens when your party members are made of players that are ages 16? 13? 10? 5?!? There's a ton of kids willing to learn how to play D&D, but adjusting your style to accommodate them can be a wild experience. Fortunately, we have Alyssa Visscher in house today to discuss running D&D games for kids, some do's and do nots,  and generally have a great time.

    (Apologies from Fighter Doc for today's episode audio quality! The content is still fantastic and we couldn't let it go to waste, and we appreciate you chugging through.)

    One of her "Upcoming cool things" was writing for D&D Beyond! You can read her posts here: https://www.dndbeyond.com/tag/author-alyssa-visscher

  • DumpStat Episode 79: BBEGs

    One of the MOST requested episode topics: Big Bad Evil Guys, the antagonists of your D&D game. How big or how bad is a question that plagues every new DM. How do you create an effective, HATE-able character for your party to firmly entrench themselves against? Every Dungeon Master knows, especially in 5th Edition, the power and gravitas that can be imposed on a table, to unite them under a single purpose or to divide them in tragedy, all through the power of make-believe! Doc and Brill flap lip about it, on the day of DumpStat's SECOND Anniversary. April 29th, 2020, is when we started. Look at that!

  • Wandering Monster 060: Treant

    "Hrum, now, well, I am an Ent, or that's what they call me. Yes, Ent is the word. The Ent, I am, you might say, in your manner of speaking. Fangorn is my name according to some, Treebeard others make it. Treebeard will do."  - Doc, 2006, at Warped Tour.

  • DumpStat Extra: WotC Buys DnD Beyond

    Doc and Cleric Jare discuss D&D Beyond's Acquisition!

    POCGamer's Tweet:
    As predicted, now that the technology is mature and user base is stable, Wizards is bringing it home. Expect the DM Guild to be next once they figure out how to deal with the POD aspect.
