| van richten's guide to the vistani: The Monsters Know What They're Doing Keith Ammann, 2019-10-29 From the creator of the popular blog The Monsters Know What They’re Doing comes a compilation of villainous battle plans for Dungeon Masters. In the course of a Dungeons & Dragons game, a Dungeon Master has to make one decision after another in response to player behavior—and the better the players, the more unpredictable their behavior! It’s easy for even an experienced DM to get bogged down in on-the-spot decision-making or to let combat devolve into a boring slugfest, with enemies running directly at the player characters and biting, bashing, and slashing away. In The Monsters Know What They’re Doing, Keith Ammann lightens the DM’s burden by helping you understand your monsters’ abilities and develop battle plans before your fifth edition D&D game session begins. Just as soldiers don’t whip out their field manuals for the first time when they’re already under fire, a DM shouldn’t wait until the PCs have just encountered a dozen bullywugs to figure out how they advance, fight, and retreat. Easy to read and apply, The Monsters Know What They're Doing is essential reading for every DM. |

| van richten's guide to the vistani: Slaying the Dragon Ben Riggs, 2022-07-19 Role-playing game historian Ben Riggs unveils the secret history of TSR— the company that unleashed imaginations with Dungeons & Dragons, was driven into ruin by disastrous management decisions, and then saved by their bitterest rival. Ben Riggs manages to walk the fine line between historical accuracy and fun about as well as anyone and SLAYING THE DRAGON is equal parts historical accuracy and entertainment. It was an essential read for me while directing and producing the Official D&D documentary but I’d recommend it to anyone regardless of the subject material. It’s a wild and fun ride through the turbulent history of one the most influential brands in our lifetime. - JOE MANGANIELLO Co-created by wargame enthusiasts Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, the original Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game released by TSR (Tactical Studies Rules) in 1974 created a radical new medium: the role-playing game. For the next two decades, TSR rocketed to success, producing multiple editions of D&D, numerous settings for the game, magazines, video games, New York Times bestselling novels by Margaret Weis, Tracy Hickman, and R. A. Salvatore, and even a TV show! But by 1997, a series of ruinous choices and failed projects brought TSR to the edge of doom—only to be saved by their fiercest competitor, Wizards of the Coast, the company behind the collectible card game Magic: The Gathering. Unearthed from Ben Riggs’s own adventurous campaign of in-depth research, interviews with major players, and acquisitions of secret documents, Slaying the Dragon reveals the true story of the rise and fall of TSR. Go behind the scenes of their Lake Geneva headquarters where innovative artists and writers redefined the sword and sorcery genre, managers and executives sabotaged their own success by alienating their top talent, ignoring their customer fanbase, accruing a mountain of debt, and agreeing to deals which, by the end, made them into a publishing company unable to publish so much as a postcard. As epic and fantastic as the adventures TSR published, Slaying the Dragon is the legendary tale of the rise and fall of the company that created the role-playing game world. |

| van richten's guide to the vistani: 龍與地下城興亡史 班•瑞格斯, 2025-04-16 《怪奇物語》主角們在地下室瘋狂遊玩的桌遊， 《龍槍編年史》、《黑暗精靈三部曲》、 《柏德之門》、《灰鷹》等小說與遊戲的原始設定， 改編電影《龍與地下城：盜賊榮耀》 全都出自於這間打造出《龍與地下城》的公司，TSR。 Ekron Hsu | 骨灰集散地站長、 譚光磊 | 骨灰級玩家 專文推薦 嘿！要不要來跑團？ 由戰爭遊戲愛好者蓋瑞．蓋格斯和戴夫．亞奈森共同創作的原版《龍與地下城》角色扮演遊戲，由TSR於1974年發行，開創了一種嶄新的遊戲類型——角色扮演遊戲。在接下來的二十年間，TSR快速崛起，推出了多個版本的《D&D》、無數遊戲設定、雜誌、電子遊戲，以及由瑪格麗特．魏絲、崔西．西克曼和R.A.薩爾瓦多撰寫的《紐約時報》暢銷小說，甚至還有一部電視劇！但到了1997年，一連串失敗的決策與項目使TSR瀕臨滅亡——最終由其最強大的競爭對手拯救，即打造了集換式卡牌遊戲《魔法風雲會》的威世智。 作者經過深入研究、大量採訪核心人物，以及獲取祕密文件，從中挖掘出此書中的精彩內容。書中揭示了TSR興起與衰落的真相，帶你深入其位於日內瓦湖的總部，見證美術視覺設計與作家如何重新定義劍與魔法的奇幻流派，同時也揭露了高層管理者如何親手毀掉自己的成功——不重視頂尖創意人才，忽視粉絲，累積巨額債務，甚至簽下最終令他們連一張明信片都無法印刷出版的交易。 這本書，就如同TSR所出版的冒險故事一樣深具史詩與奇幻氛圍，記錄了創造角色扮演遊戲世界的傳奇公司，從無比興盛，到衰落至極的歷程。 |
