I read the preview and that Viking subclass seems like a mess. I don’t find the Kobold Press subclass designs balanced at all and they just seem to get a pass on it while WotC is scrutinized for better or worse.

I feel like this version of the Tattoo Monk is even worse. I recommend they have a spreadsheet with the sub-class feature text of the PHB subclasses and fill in the new feature text and compare across the line. There's some SCAG level stuff in here.

My favorite B series module based on text/reviews is B10: Night's Dark Terror. I wonder if that would adapt well to modern play. If anybody actually ever played in that one I'd be interested in how it actually played out.

Ah yes. It makes sense then that Isle of Dread would be a nice continuation but since it would be levels 4+ a traditional adventure book would make more sense. Throw in a nice hex map of the isle and my wallet will open.

Upvote for new Isle of Dread. What was the historical follow up to B2?

Wouldn’t the story just emerge? I see so many forum posts saying they should learn from the OSR and then when they adopt concepts from it like terse description and sandbox style play the feedback is - where’s the storyline?

I got mine and I’m going excited to run it. The art on the tokens, booklets and monster cards is amazing. It’s similar to the 5e standard style but somehow has a little more edge maybe more of a 3e vibe? It’s hard to describe

I got my starter set in the mail and I’m impressed by the quality and amount of content. The box is stuffed!

I honestly think it could be the other way around. They could lose audience if it is not D&D.

The Gladiator sounds grisly and fun.

I haven't head anything about this again? Has it been bumped from the schedule this year?

I think Wizards is trying forward looking content, they just have an established player base that viciously resists change. Their strict adherence to the survey model that allows that user base to influence what gets printed is the issue. They could start making 6E and it would be surveyed back...

This is so dull compared to what the UA had. I hope that design comes back somehow.

The Emerald Kingdom though I can see how the other part of the question could lead to the latter interpretation 😊
