The same thing happened with amazon.com. I will send them a correction,. I did already do that last week, when I inquired why they didn't yet have the book 10 days after it was released. Obviously didn't carry any credence with them, that they instead moved the projected date up an arbitrary 90 day...

Odd they did that to you. I ordered both those books together from Amazon on December 9, and received LotB by Christmas. I wonder why they shipped seperately for me, but not for you? I did get the free shipping for ordering over $25. They did the same thing to me this month, I had ordered several bo...

Being quite envious of the number of folks here that have either downloaded the DT&DL ebook or have managed to pick up a print copy at their FLGS, I have been checking on my Amazon pre-order all week. It is still showing as 'not yet released'. Anyone know how long it takes the discount distribut...

In a group of 1st levels, we were investigating the unusual goings-on at the village cemetary. My fighter was hit by a ghoul after opening the door to the crypt. Immediately paralyzed, "he" could only watch as the rest of the party ran away.
I've always hated ghouls ever since. :x

I answered you on the Wizards board that mine came only with the cover, book, & map. Now I see on the reviews page here for House of Strahd here that you did end up with something extra!

Re: Gwydion

What's exactly so important about this character? The review says that if he escaped, he might be able to challenge the Dark Powers themselves. Is he a God? A Demon? What? Is Gwydion a renegade Dark Power? No, he is the 7th level bard that frequents the Blackard Inn in Mordentshire and challenges D...

That's pretty much it. Add "Light in the Belfrey", Dungeon magazine #31 "Bane of the Shadowborn", Champions of the Mist, and Van Richten's Arsenal to your list & that's all I can think of. The text to LitB and BotS used to be available for download on the Kargatane site, but ...

Most recently, the end of the movie Saw. I was not expecting the body lying in the blood during the whole movie to get up and be the bad guy. :shock:
