For Eberron lovers, do you view Ravnica as competition? Both are mainly urban and ubiquitous magic.

No, because I view the idea of settings being in competition as being outdated and parochial. Settings are just the seasoning on what's actually important, playing D&D.

I agree. Yet will you use both products simultaneously in the same campaign, or use one product and shelve the other?

Does it have Dragonborn in it? If so, don't care. 3e Eberron, the way it was intended or nothing.

Honestly, I don't know. I'm currently running a Ravnica campaign, and my next turn in the DM chair won't be for quite a while. Realistically, I might be running 6e at that point.

A single nation of Scales stuck in Q'barra with little contact with greater Khorvaire? That's your dealbreaker? Of all things?

Some people can be iredeemably petty and pathetic. Why do a disproportionate amount of them have to be on RPG forums, ranting about lawns and yelling at clouds?

Eberron is my favourite setting. Between this and the Baldur’s Gatel stuff it’s like they’re custom making books just for me.

Yes, but the PDF of Wayfinder's Guide has not been updated with the artificer yet - that is what I was talking about.

The Guide is only supposed to get the finalized version of the Artificer, so I would guess it will not be added til the hardcover book is sent off to the printer.

There's mention of "half-dragon lizardfolk" living in Q'barra in the 3e book. They just called them out as Dragonborn in the later editions. Not a big deal.

As to the announcement...

Yay Eberron!

If it makes you feel any better, I haven't purchased any of the adventures or Ravnica.

I am not a fan of the massive adventures either. I run options in my sandbox game vs APs. Anyway, I am here as a DM that does not play (or like) MtG (though only tried once years ago). BUT I am urging you to check that Ravnica book out. It is everything I want from a setting book. I will never run an adventure in Ravnica (and yes idea of planet-wide city is silly), but this book is FULL of cool stuff you use.

It is one of my favourite books as a GM. So much inspiring stuff in there.

We have a system for Renown & Relationship Dice (like 13thAge) in our games, inc ranks, and Ravnica gives us great ideas for what to do with ranks. So good to adapt to any organisation.

Love the stat blocks in there.

Love the ideas. Creatures as leaders and members of factions. It inspires me to bring more fantasy to my game. I grab this book off my shelf a lot.
