    D&D 5E (2024) Very cheeky WotC...

    On the first...I have very little doubt in my midn that WotC won't bring over all the remaining Gygax Advrbture models into 5E at some point, and by all accounts I've heard the Wonderland stuff is Gygax at his best. And they already talked about Gamma World explicitly on the DMgm a Gamma World...

    D&D General Species of Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    I don't know if they will continue to keep it subtle and open to interpretation in this book proper, but the 3E obsession with bespoke cosmology for each Settibg just doesn't fit with D&D at this point. Eberron getting a distinct cosmology locally as a distinct expression of the First World...

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Is it a Master tier subscriber deal?

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Which does match with what the designers were laying down as the core books released.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    How...does the Lightning Rail Bastion work?

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Which fits well enough considering this is meant to pair with Rising from the Last War: that book had a lot of stat blocks that hold up well, and the campaign frameworks here are fairly humanoid-centric. Interesting that we get both Llolthite Drow and the totally different Xen'drick Drow in...

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    The page count suggests that bastions are pretty exte lively treated, anything of note there?

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Interesting, one of the early previews had mentioned Fmolls and included a picture with a couple.

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    They are on the same "Continent" sure...but in excess of 3200 miles away. It's greater than the distance between Sweden and India. Cultural differences between the Savage Frontker and the Eastern coast of the Sea of Fallen Stars will be extreme.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Vibes, allows them to do their thing with a pistol, longbow or crossbow, but not a dart or sling.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's New with the Artificer in Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    I know we had been speculating on the 18 Backgrounds on offer, what's going on with those? What does the Species section have to say about Gnolls?

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    Fizban's and the new Monster Manual have moved away from direct parentage being the necessary cause of a half-dragon. Magic and draconic "radiation" are now listed as causes.
