CNN brings us a piece on Dungeons & Dragons Encounters, a series of
pre-packaged characters and adventures produced by Wizards of the
Coast, designed to bring new players to the hobby, and maybe even
bring some of the lapsed players back.

"Wizards of the Coast, the current publishers of D&D, recognized that
some of the 24 million people who used to play the game left, not
because they didn't want to play, but because their lifestyles changed
and they didn't have the time anymore -- so they have created a new
rules system to address those concerns and bring back their former
fans.

The new "D&D Encounters" provides all the materials needed to run a
D&D game, but in a relatively short period of time. The goal, said
brand director Liz Schuh, is to get those former gamers rolling the
dice again."

Despite how you may feel about fourth edition D&D, it's always nice to
see positive press for the hobby, especially from such a big name as
CNN - and even better, it is delivered without any of the old urban
legends.
