4E Campaign Announcement Time/Date

[Hawke]

I looked at wotc's schedule but I didn't see an obvious "here is where we're announcing." As I'll be at work all, I'm eager to hear it and am wondering when I can expect o hear something.

 

[darjr]

My bet is that it'll be during the Dragonlance 25th anniversary celebration.

Or during the Friday 'D&D 4th Extravaganza'.

Yeah, I'm thinking it will be Dragonlance as the next campaign setting. We should do some spreadbetting or pools on the next campaign settings for the WotC years.

I'm guessing based on the ampersand article that the next setting's spelled as one word. That puts Dark Sun out and leaves either Dragonlance or Spelljammer.

It's probably Dragonlance but I'm not discouting out Spelljammer with the release of the githzerai and the other stuff regarding the Astral plane...

I may be totally wrong though. It might be Dominaria or Alara...

 

[Thaumaturge]

Perhaps with a "4e Modern" announcement as well.

Thaumaturge.

Dragonlance has its supporters but seems to have a huge number of detractors, as well. I am guessing they have done the smart thing and gone with something original.

 

[I'm A Banana]

Yesh, Dragonlance is kind of a 50/50 toss. Some evidence, but nothing conclusive.

I doubt it's a new setting, since one of the points we know is that old schoolers will be happy about it. I can't see old schoolers getting THAT excited about a new setting.

I'm not persuaded it is one thing over another yet. I'm half-expecting DL, but I am totally prepared to be wrong, and I wouldn't say I've got a big reason to expect that.

They'll probably reveal it Sunday or some such. Dangling their bait in front of us all weekend.

 

[Nymrohd]

Well if old schoolers are to be happy about it it would have to be Greyhawk or Mystara.

 

[The_Fan]

The longer into the week it is before the big announcement the less likely it is Dragonlance and the more it is something different. I'm guessing Dragonlance is the most likely, but I'm still holding out hope for Dark Sun.

I'm also thinking it's possible they could take a third option and go Urban Arcana, but that wouldn't please old schoolers. Not at all.

 

[Theron]

Or Greyhawk. Which would certainly please THIS old-schooler.
