[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 7731120, member: 7006"] Sure, but that could mean UAs in February, March & April. So what? Just because it could be the third of three UAs doesn't mean its therefore not going to be in the Autumn book. Hey, I could be wrong. Perhaps they decided rather than to do a single gazeteer which included the basics of multiple settings, they're going to just do a single one. So for instance the November book is like a Khorvaire Adventurer's Guide with player and DM info for Eberron only. If that's the case, then fine, it'll have the Artificer, some races, and dragonmarks only. Personally I'd be [I]surprised[/I] if they did that, because I don't see there being [B]nearly[/B] enough Eberron stuff to warrant a 256(?) page book-- unless they're just going to essentially re-print exact same info on the Five Nations for the THIRD time. But if they did that... we'll hear a caterwauling even worse than we've had for SCAG or XGtE. I mean at least SCAG had a "timeline update" to kind of justify a new book with new Sword Coast info. But Eberron's timeline doesn't change. And thus there's going to be absolutely no info different in a 5E book that we don't already have in the 3E and 4E books. In my mind... at least if you were to put specific chapters of basic gazeteer info about Greyhawk, Eberron, Dark Sun, and Dragonlance (along with all the player character stuff) you could justify re-printing non-updated info about them cause you'd have several other new settings you probably didn't have even if you had most of one or two. But to make a book that was ONLY about Eberron? You can kiss a whole heap of buyers goodbye-- not only because there's an extremely small market for Eberron by itself... but also if most of the book was a basic re-print you'd be buying it merely for the updated character info-- info that anyone who really cares about playing in Eberron has probably already used and updated the UA themselves to use. But what do I know? Maybe that's what they're doing. Personally I think that'd be STUPID... especially considering that pushes back Dark Sun to what-- 2019? And Greyhawk (if they even ever bothered getting to it) to 2020 and then mayyyyyyyyybe Dragonlance or Mystara in 2021? Pff... no thanks. [/QUOTE]
