    New listings on the WotC 2007 product page!

    For now. Wait for the "Drizzt of Eberron" to appear and tha almighty clamour for stats that will ensue. Eberron will go the way of FR - it's inevitable. The Swordsage

    Erik Mona's secret project revealed yet?

    "Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk" - what a ponderous title for what sounds like a great offering. I suppose next on the agenda is "In Search of the Descent into the Depths" or maybe "Against the Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth". There is such a thing as too much nostalgia. The Swordsage

    Greenwood on FR npcs

    The answer is exceedingly simple. You have not yet had the opportunity to see what the Demon Princes, Archdevils et. al. of the Realms are like in terms of power. Last time I checked there hasn't been much in the way of information or game stats for 3E otherplanar creatures IN THE REALMS...

    Using "Mysteries of the Moonsea"

    I have no problems with the designer listing what type of gems are found in a treasure hoard - especially in the Realms where there are bucket loads of new and unique gems. There's nothing more lazy than this exchange: DM: You also find a bunch of gems. Player: How many are there and what type...

    Cult of the Dragon - Forgotten Realms - Need Updated Info

    Go to the downloads section on the WotC "Forgotten Realms" page and you can download the still-useful 2E Cult of the Dragon sourcebook. The Swordsage

    Stephen Colbert talks D&D and LOTR on Conan O'Brien

    The chapter on the fifth battle, the Battle of Unnumbered Tears, has to be some of the most stirring and evocative high fantasy prose ever penned. Awesome. The Swordsage

    Request for Blackstaff

    At this stage, the responses at Candlekeep have been overwhelmingly positive. And given the vibe there more recently re some aspects of the Realms, that's saying something. The Swordsage

    Dragon Magazine: Crunch vs. Fluff - What do you want?

    Why is the fluff in a FR/GH/Eberron article not as useful as the fluff in my totally made-up Swordsagia world if I write an article for Dragon? Why is my Swordsagia stuff more easy to adapt than FR/GH/Ebrron content? Personally, I don't think it is. It always comes down to names - people and...

    Why Dragon Magazine?

    If you are a fan of GH, FR, Eberron et. al. it's the only place you will find non-adventure material outside of the published products. As a Realms fanatic, if they publish an FR article, I buy that issue. No FR content, no sale. On those lines, if you are a fan of a particular setting, or find...

    Hordes of the Abyss.

    After reading this thread and learning that the demon lords and princes will be in the CR20-24-ish range, I too am disappointed. You see, my campaigns never last beyond a couple of sessions and I was hoping that the lords/princes would be tailored to my particular needs and so would have a CR...

    Previews for Dungeon 137, 138, 139 and Dragon 346, 347, 348

    Doesn't look like any FR content in the upcoming issues of Dragon. Shame that. Looks like my $ stay in my wallet for a couple of months. Will be picking up that issue of Dungeon for "Man Forever" though. An adventure set in Impiltur sounds interesting. The Swordsage

    [FR] Info on Presper?

    First, you are confusing Presper the Wizard and Prespur the island in the Inner Sea. They have nothing to do with each other. There is some more information on the Covenant in the description of Savengriff in the recent "City of Splendors:Waterdeep" sourcebook and a long while ago on the WotC...

    Forgotten Realms

    If realmslore was your main focus, then 2E was the bomb. -- The Swordsage

    What's your favourite "Forgotten Realms" place?

    I voted "other". Impiltur is the place to be. Lots of demon cults and lurking fiends juxtaposed against a kingdom that venerates the Triad and is ruled by the Lords of Imphras II, a council of paladins. -- The Swordsage
