5TDM: 5th Edition Team Deathmatch Brings PVP Combat to the Tabletop
On Kickstarter right now you can back 5th Edition Team Deathmatch, a team-based, PvP competitive tabletop arena for D&D 5th Edition. Defy Danger, a longtime proponent of PVP tournaments for D&D, has created a fantastic new medium for competitive roleplaying games.
From the KS:
This game is an action RPG about strengthening the bonds you already have with the friends in your gaming group, or forming new bonds of friendship, in the face of shared adversity and the greatest challenge. Nothing beats the thrill of coming together to defeat a seemingly insurmountable foe. 5TDM doesn’t pull any punches. It puts you through the wringer and lets your group emerge closer to each other than ever. It is competitive, but not toxic.
Small groups of player characters are pitted against each other in a no-holds-barred frenzy of carnage in a team-based, player-vs-player competition. 5th Edition Team Deathmatch is a contest of skill, wits, and luck. 5TDM is about winning the world’s most popular roleplaying game.
The Kickstarter still has 15 days to go and currently features 20 different arenas to battle in, created by many of the gaming community’s best cartographers. Each arena has its own unique rules to up the carnage. Games are streaming almost daily on Twitch and, best of all, On December 2nd, I’ll be playing in a featured match against the Dread Gazebo crew! My teammates are from Gnome Stew, so it’ll be a great game of long-time bloggers battling it out as we smash our competition. I’ll drop a new post when we’re about to go live! See you there, and back the Kickstarter so we can get even more dungeons!
