Heh. Of course 4E is coming… and, I’m thankful for it. (How much worse would it be if D&D stopped being produced?) However, the recent “New Releases” list from Wizards has made it fairly clear to me that 4E is some way off.

Eight Kings details a strange demi-plane in which the rightful king of the land … Continue reading Eight Kings…
A few months ago, I posted the plans of Wizards for D&D in the future – the various lines of Hero Builder books (the Complete series), the Race books (Races of Stone), the Monster books (Draconomicon), the Environ books (Frostburn) and so forth. With the Complete Adventurer, announced last week and due in early 2005, the series of the four Hero books will be complete. … Continue reading The Future of D&D redux
