I just realized that it would be better to roll both expansions into one. And it shall be called Dungeon Bash World (DBW)! Read on to get all the details, and learn how to become a playtester for DBW.

Say goodbye to Dungeon Bash: Urban and Dungeon Bash: Wilderness

There's a multitude of reasons for the change. For those who don't know, I've been working on two expansions for Dungeon Bash: one dealing with adventures in the city (working title: Dungeon Bash: Urban, DB:U), the other with travel, landscape and everything else between city and dungeon (working title: Dungeon Bash: Wilderness, DB:W). So why the sudden change?

Both expansion build on each other, but at the same time I wouldn't want to force everybody to buy both expansions - each one would have to work on its own. For that reason the current rules feature many cross-references and substitute rules to make it work. Example: if you generate a city using DB:U, it's important to know where the city is located, as coastal cities tend to be larger, and only cities adjacent to the coast or a river would have a harbor. If you'd use DB:W, you'd already know exactly where the city is located.

Designing the final product is much work in and on itself. By combining both products you'll have access to all the rules from both expansions much quicker than if you'd have to wait for both expansions. And frankly you've waited long enough already, right?

Then there's the price. Dungeon Bash World will cost about as much as a single expansion, for various reasons (one being the work involved, as mentioned above).

All in all, I'd say it's a good thing to combine both expansions into a single book, don't you think?

In any case we would need a short description of your playing experience (DB and the d20 System), why you are interested in playtesting the DB expansion, and how many players will help you doing the playtest.

Because we'll assign different parts of the rules to different groups in phase 1 (phase 2 includes a selected few playtesters testing the whole expansion) you could also decide which part of the expansion you are more interested in, cities or wilderness.

What are you waiting for?

And finally...

That's all the news for now. Watch this space for another huge announcement regarding Dungeon Bash. We'll collaborate with another publisher to bring something to the game that's painfully missing ... can you guess what I'm talking about?
