Dragonlance: Warriors Of Krynn Tabletop Strategy Game Can Integrate With Your D&D Campaign
While Dungeons & Dragons is making its glorious return to the Dragonlance setting later this year with Shadow of the Dragon Queen, it isn’t the only thing we’re getting. Launching alongside it is the tabletop strategy game Dragonlance: Warriors of Krynn.

While Warriors of Krynn can be played on its own with no regard for the main book, perhaps the coolest aspect of it is its symbiotic relationship with Shadow of the Dragon Queen.
