Still working on ranger.

Genesis of Strahd adventure goes back to 2013 gencon conversation with Tracey Hickman. "One horrifying moment after another". "Ravenloft remastered". More "expand" then change.

 

[TerraDave]

If there is enough interest in Strahd...then another Ravenloft product could follow.

"We've talked about [Gamma World]"

 

[TerraDave]

Strongly imply that other settings could get introduced to DMGuild.

"Reaction to 5E...surpassed every expectation...compared to every past edition...phenomenal response" Players getting younger. Reprints so frequent it has become a scheduling problem. Starter Set has worked to get people playing. Streaming games also helped introduce it to new players.

 

[TerraDave]

At cons: small groups of DMs will be able meet with crawford, mearls, etc to discuss their possible DMGuild creations.

 

[TerraDave]

Fantasy grounds is not an exclusive agreement. Still looking for other partners.
