The second installment of the D&D Next play-test is ready for download.

If you have not got in on this yet, but you’re interested at all, you should sign up.  This is an opportunity to have your voice heard in the, as far as I know, biggest game play-test ever. (Don’t quote me on that)  It also gives one a nice perspective concerning game development and play-testing for  table-top RPGs.

This installment includes Character Gen, DM guidelines, new monsters, and pre-gen characters

For those of us who are already a part of this event, apparently we need to make an account specifically for the play-test.  They’re trying not to repeat the debacle that was the first download release.

Here’s the link!

Apparently, Upper Deck is preparing to launch a new deck building game at Gencon.

“Legendary”

This one will be based in the Marvel universe and have all of the heavy hitters from that franchise as cards in the game!

The announcement states that it utilizes an all new mechanic for deck building created by Devin Low, the former Head Developer of Magic: The Gathering!

With as much weight as this particular intellectual property holds with it’s fans, I certainly hope that this thing is well put together!  No matter what the quality of the game, it’s sure to spark some fantastic, nerd rage inspired, conversation.  I’m stoked for the reveal.

Here’s a pic:

Aaaaaaand,
