It’s been almost forty years since Ereb Altor was first introduced to the world in the Swedish Sinkadus magazine.

Fighting Fantasy Fest, the convention of Firetop Mountain, returns for its sixth year this September and will feature a special guest appearance from Games Workshop Co-Founder and Co-Creator of the Fighting Fantasy Series, Sir Ian Livingstone.

Actual play shows, such as Critical Role and Dimension 20 have been massively popular over the last ten years. Episodes can attract millions of viewers and Critical Role have sold out arenas across the globe, including Wembley Arena shows that sold out in under an hour. Dungeons & Dragons has often been the game of choice for shows and now D&D publisher Wizards of the Coast is getting in to the act with a new actual play series called ‘Dungeon Masters’ launching on YouTube on 22nd April.
