For those of you who have been listening and loving the Critical Hit: A Major Spoilers D&D 4th edition podcast, and have been itching to start playing, there’s some good news from Wizards of the Coast. The company announced it is bundling the Player’s Handbook 1 and Player’s Handbook 2 into a slip-cased edition that will sell for $34.95 (for a limited time of course). This is the equivelent of getting one book for free.
If you’re sitting on the fence, I’d say drop the money and get the bundle now, that way, you can follow along with your favorite three-quarter Orc and his band of merry followers.
This issue: Dungeon Master Rodrigo turns the tables on the players as listeners meet a new set of adventurers and discover how the other half live.

I know more than one person will be lining up for the movie adaptation of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Disney just released the trailer, and it doesn’t look half bad.
This issue: Dungeon Master Rodrigo talks about the Adventurer’s Vault from Wizards of the Coast. There are new items to be found, and Rodrigo runs through some of them.

If you are a fan of Critical Hit, the Major Spoilers Dungeons and Dragons Podcast, then you’ll be happy to know we are recording a new batch of episodes RIGHT NOW! It’s too bad you can’t listen/watch live, but to give you a feel of how epic the encounters are today, we’re giving you a look at some work by Brazilian artist, Felipe Massafera.
The 2009 Game X Expo came to the Philadelphia area for a three day event October 23rd through the 25th. Taking place in Oaks, Pa the convention featured demos, arcades, tournaments, an artist alley, vendors, celebrities and a large variety of activities such as robot wars and light saber training.
More characters are popping up for the upcoming DC Universe Online game, this time it’s Bizarro.
This issue: The party is safely aboard the airship headed to the farmlands, but even while they gear up, and have discussions on fighting strategy, something is lurking close by. Also, stay tuned after the show for game mechanic discussions that future dungeon masters might enjoy.

Thanks to the publicity from yesterday, Critical Hit: A Major Spoilers Dungeons and Dragons Podcast hit the front page of the iTunes Audio Podcast page (and the front page of the main iTunes Podcast page if you scroll to the right).
While we like to think we had something to do with the success of the show, it really has to do with all the great fans who download, listen, and leave 5 Star comments on the iTunes site. So here’s to you, the Legion of Spoilerites who do really great things!
Don’t forget, another episode of Critical Hit arrives Saturday!
I was doing my weekly check up of the Critical Hit Podcast on iTunes, and was pleasantly surprised to see the show listed as the Top Audio Podcast for the Other Games category (look who’s in the number two position). I wanted to take a moment and thank all of you who have helped make this a success, and while we haven’t reached Epic Download Status, like our friends over at The Instance, we are growing.
Want to help even more? Head over to iTunes and give Critical Hit a 5 Star Rating with positive comments, and the show could very easily move from the New and Notable category for Games & Hobbies to the featured spot on the font page.
Thanks again! We have many more shows to record, and many more adventures just around the corner.
