\nThe first episode of the Round Table is back after 8 months. The whole gang returns to discuss the recent developments in the industry including the rise of D&D. Roleplaying popularity is surging and for the guys, driving sales in store despite being offered on sites like Amazon at discounted prices.
\nWe peel back why D&D seems to be immune, at least for now, from being devalued like many other lines in the game trade and what it means for game store owners.
\nWe also breakdown the impact of the looming trade war between Canada and the United States on Magic: the Gathering as well as Wizard's recent moves to increase the cost of sealed product while also eliminating direct distribution.
\nCheck out the Dueling Grounds livestream on Aug 25 and support a good cause.
