Suggestions? My YT videl explores turning Bulk #TCG cards ($0.10 or less into #DnD Tokens). What cards from #Yugioh #MTG and #Pokemon have good clean 1" tokens? This is a bit harder than I thought since most art is cropped/ too big. The art ideally would be 1/4 of the frame size for a 1" hole punch.
Ooh, I'ma make a video on this for my 2nd channel. Not only can upgrade the cheap tokens from the #DnD #HotB Box Set, but my Bulk #Yugioh cards can come to life 🤓❤️🔥(#MTG too for their D&D crossovers; TCG art into Custom Game Tokens! #MonsterReborn engagedfamilygaming.com/parent-resou...

I was excited to use it to run some one shots but this Review by sums it up well. It's more like they are "ideas of a plan" rather than giving you a plan to run the adventures. Quantity / Quality. I did like the Lore on Calmishan since our PC Hurk's tragic backstory www.wargamer.com/dnd/adventur...
D&D's Adventures in Faerûn offers a new vision for adventure design - and it's just kinda boring
Quantity over quality seems to be Dungeons & Dragons' new adventure design strategy, and one of its recent books is seriously disappointing.

Okay, so: Brave Little Toaster inspired #TTRPG One Shot. What sentient item - magical or mundane - is your #Mimic PC choosing as their default persona, what's their class & why? 😜 #DnD Mundane items that equate to a mediul sized creature or smaller only. (Beauty and the Beast rules might also apply)

New D&D Starter Set Review is finally up! And it SLAPS! 😅 I was surprised with this one given WOTC's recent track record. As someone who had zero physical props before buying this, I think it actually worked out pretty well! Also...who's BAT MAN?🏏 #DnD #5e #ttrpg #cosplay youtu.be/opOBx_sDP00
