#252: Publisher’s Convention Survival Guide

This week, Morrus, Peter, and Jessica take you behind the scenes of working a convention as a publisher. In the news, Wizards of the Coast expands on what to expect from the 2024 D&D Core Rulebook update, new product announcements from Modiphius, Free League, Paizo partners, and indie publishers, controversy in the BattleTech Reddit community, and more! Plus a new listener question and a brand new sketch about a tomb with a deadly semantic curse.
