Medieval Weapons Laws

 Whether you're running a medieval authentic game or a generic fantasy game, it's a good idea to think about what the social rules should be about characters going around dressed to kill.

WotC Uses BG3 to Cover for Ongoing D&D Losses

 The #dnd sales this quarter were awful, but #WotC covered it up by throwing in their #BG3 royalties.
