The new “edition” of Dungeons & Dragons, which I guess I’m calling D&D 2024, has started landing. Except physical editions of the Player’s Handbook in Australia, which are somewhat delayed. As it’s been a long time since I’ve been in a gaming store, I’m not sure how long they’re delayed. Reports vary. (October 11?)
