So make sure to follow us on twitter (@baldmangames), on Facebook (Baldman Games), or keep an eye on the website.

Registration Opens – November 29^th

Pre-reg for D&D Experience 2012 opens at 8pm on Tuesday, November 29^th. Tickets for high demand events will go fast so make sure to have your wish list ready and your mouse hand stretched and ready. Remember that all attendees need a badge. So if you are buying tickets for your group remember to get enough badges as well.

We will continue to add new events as we approach the show from independent judges running their own adventures. Those will be announced in these weekly updates as they happen. We have several judges running 1^st edition D&D adventures or updating them to 4^th edition. So keep your eyes open.

Special Guests

We’ve been hinting at some big names this year for our special guests and to kickoff our first weekly update we’ll let one of the biggest ones out of the gate right now. Monte Cook will be attending D&D Experience this year as a seminar panelist and judge for the special D&D Wotc event. So your ticket to this sweet event might just get a little bit sweeter when Monte sits down to run your group through it.

Monte has worked as a professional writer and game designer since 1988. He has published two novels, numerous short stories, countless articles, and a comic book series for Marvel. Monte was also one of the three principal designers of 3rd Edition Dungeons & Dragons and the d20 system. His d20 game design studio, Malhavoc Press, produced award-winning products like Monte Cook’s Arcana Evolved, Ptolus, and the Books of Eldritch Might. Monte has worked on games such as D&D, Champions, Rolemaster, and more. He also created HeroClix, D20 Call of Cthulhu, and Monte Cook’s World of Darkness. He is a graduate of the Clarion West Writer's Workshop and his recent nonfiction book is A Skeptic’s Guide to Conspiracies.

Currently, he is working with Wizards of the Coast to explore new options with D&D, writing a monthly fiction series in Game Trade Magazine, a quarterly game column in Kobold Quarterly, and a weekly column on the Wizards' website. He is also the co-host of the upcoming Geek Seekers web series.

Event Highlights

ADCP4-1 City of Destinies: The city of Myth Nantar is the center of the sea elves' society. Although it once rested entirely beneath the waves of the Sea of Fallen Stars, the changes wrought by the Spellplague exposed Myth Nantar's upper levels to the air. Now the sea elves and the surface races mingle and trade freely here, protected from their enemies by ancient elven high magic. Thanks to the mythal, the citizens of Myth Nantar need not fear the threat of the Abolethic Sovereignty. Or so they believe. A TWO-ROUND continuous-play Living Forgotten Realms Battle Interactive for characters of the Heroic and Paragon tiers (levels 1-20). This adventure lasts for 10 hours of real time, including breaks, from start to finish. Please make sure you schedule enough time to stay for the entire event. It is recommended (but not required) that you play SPEC4-1 or SPEC4-2, as appropriate for your character level, before playing this adventure. This adventure is combat-intensive and the battles are designed to be more difficult than those in a standard LFR adventure. You will need good resource management, strong teamwork, and a bit of luck to succeed.
