Here’s the Introduction and the first 4 videos of the session. I will add the rest as they are released. [...]
These videos are well worth watching if you have any interest in roleplay. It shows how much fun D&D can be and are a continuation from the podcast episodes released by Wizards of the Coast.

Well our group finished a 4th edition campaign last night, when I say finish it what I mean to say is that we left our characters dead lifeless bodies cooling next to a river after being ambushed. Total party kills (TPK) happens, its part of the game, but I have never been on the player [...]
