Let’s start off with one of my favorite things…D&D Licensing.

We have talked about D&D’s collaboration with Mythical Meats a jerky company, I can remember one of Nabisco’s breakfast cereals having a D&D tie in. And, I think one of my friends had a D&D wood burning set. You know the thing that got hot and you could burn designs into wood. Yea D&D did that. And let’s not forget they licensed D&D to a predatory online gambling site.

This time we are talking beer. I like beer. New Holland Brewing has announced it’s bringing back it’s popular D20 Brew and this time it’s going to come with a dice tower and special edition dice.

Doc, what do you think about D20 Brew

Mike, New Holland is also bringing back their Mead Cask Bourbon. Is that more up your ally?

If you were in charge of D&D Licensing and you were looking for something weird to license, what would it be?

Gary Gygax, the creator of Dungeons and Dragons passed away in 2008. His widow Gail Gygax has been working to create a memorial for Gary in his hometown of Lake Geneva Wisconsin.

The memorial will be set in Library Park, and it will be a stone table with benches, and a statue of Gary Gygax himself seated at the table. The table will feature a bronze map of Gygax's first ever D&D dungeon level, scaled for use with miniatures.

What a cool thing that you could sit down and play with Gary, long after he has passed.

Doc, what are your thoughts on this one?

How about you Mike

This one made me think of all the new spaces going up that are roleplaying friendly. Coffee shops offer not only coffee, but roleplaying games for sale and tables where patrons can sit and play their favorite game. There are several here in Indiana and if you do a search, you will be blown away by how many exist across the US. Coffee shops aren’t the only venue. Bars are getting into the scene with some even offering game masters, table rentals, and weekly events with prizes. I mean this is really cool. I always said I wanted to open a vinyl record store, but now maybe I could open a vinyl record store and gaming space. I could call it Critical Spin!

Mike, what would your public games space look like?

What about you Doc?

And there you have it. All the news, you’ve already heard.
