Yeah, Arena prints money. I somewhat doubt he got "fired" per se, since he seems to have not been part of the 90% of Sigil team members let go, but if Hasbro was offering early retirement packages he may have felt like the writing was on the wall...

Well, well, welllso the turns have tabled... Pretty smart to bring someone with deep D&D history who has also gone out and learned from other other places for a while.

I mean, Chris Cao had three things wince he got involved in D&D - Advocating against buying Beyond...which turns out to have been one of the smarter things WotC has done in their tenure of D&D ownership - Advocating for replacing the OGL...which is probvly one of the dumbest self-owns in...

In my experience, it is neither who do. Which is, also, a major theme of the novels. Robert Jordan said that he really wanted to capture the problems people have communicating with each other, and he dis...in detail...

Some people level it as a criticism of the books ("these guys are stupid, this would never work!"), but I rather feel that is missing the point: the Forsaken and Darkfriends are buffonish narcissists who don't work together. That's the point, that's what evil is (also rings true with my...

It was a definite theme in the novels that the Forsaken were fundamentally broken and incapable of working together properly...and that was on purpose from the Datk One's side.

That's not uncommon for creative publishing fields: you work for Board Company X, you sign a contract that any board game you design during the period of employment belongs to them.

Sure, lol, my point was that I was a toddler.

Perkins started his career in D&D while I was still wearing diapers.

Oh, well. Fudge.

I loved the Moghedian plot in the books, glad to hear it is getting good representation here.

Thr standard used by the show, apparently, was to base a nations accent off of the primary character first cast from there. So, since Liandrin has a bit of a Liverpool accent, that's the Taraboner accent.

I think the dhowrunners know it important: a bit of 1 and 2 in play, I reckon.

They were chock full of full color art.

Yup, in the books Dreaming is a nigh-mythical lost art thwt barely anyone knows how to do (and importantly no Aes Sedai) and Egwene turns out to be a genius at it. Just comparing word count to screentime, the show is naturally ar a disadvantage to fully establish details like that, which is...

I think it will squeeze by.

Please don't insult human written fanfic by comparing it to this junk. I don't read fanfic, but it isn't a crime against art.

This is the Way.

Even Dragpn Heist and Shattered Obelisk are usable: honestly none of the campaign books from 5E have been Forest Oracle material. The Spelljammer and Planescape campaigns, IMO, are helped greatly NY a lower pahe count and Level length, not needing to stretch am idea to 256 pages.
