Welcome to Time Stop, your week in review for fourth edition Dungeons & Dragons news. Its time to catch up on the news that we missed due to being at GenCon (and then recovering from GenCon). Today’s installment of Time Stop will focus exclusively on news from Wizards of the Coast. I will return soon to share various articles and podcasts with you. Additionally, I will have a wrap up of GenCon itself in case you were not able to make it yourself.
