Menagerie Press Dispatch: Organized Play — Saturday, November 14, 2026

Posted on by

Top of the day: D&D’s new-look organized play is in full swing, with stores now running weekly D&D Encounters sessions of Deadmines Dungeon ahead of the World of Warcraft book’s wide release on Tuesday. Paizo’s November Organized Play update sanctions Feybound and Vaultlines for Pathfinder Society and sets the next Starfinder Society scenario for December 2. A fairly quiet day otherwise.
