oo! According to one of those live blogs, the D&D Game Day this year will be Dark SUn themed! Makes sense... still totally awesome! When is D&D Game Day!?
Also, these "survival days" seem to make perfect sense. Interested in seeing how they work... though if the environment "attacks" you, I hope it's a scaling attack bonus - I always loved how in 2e Dark Sun, it relied on ability checks, meaning a 20th level character in the desert with no food was just as screwed as a 3rd level character...
I liked this, too:
