It's easiest to use the mostly new set of rules since future products will be written incorporating those rules, but there are some older things that I'll keep using since they're better. Most importantly, I'm using the orcs/drow from the 5.0 MM and Volo's Guide.

There are generally only around 4-6 slots per year for new products. I like seeing the best of the 1e stuff updated to 5e since there was a lot of great 1e stuff and it saves a lot of work if they do the work converting it for me, but I prefer not to see 5e stuff updated to 5.5e since it's...

YES! Gamma World was awesome.

It will have been 2 years since the last Adventure Path book, so I think we'll see another one of those. With the emphasis on adding high-CR monsters in the MM, I think it'll be a high-level book like Vecna was. Perhaps levels 11-20. Since they already updated G1-3, it would be interesting to...

Dark Sun would be nice and so would another anthology, but I really hope they don't do Strahd for the 387th time. I may be in the minority here, but I like it when they do anthologies of the best 1e adventures. I don't like all their alterations, but these can be fixed. Some nice choices would...

The 5e chart and partial 2e chart are great tools. I haven't been able to find the ones you did for the other editions listed on this forum. If you have time, would you please post the charts (or links to them) here? Thanks!

I think that cultist is probably getting slimed with the critter's infamous mucus rather than being eaten.

I hope this is not the remains of what was to become the Red Wizards adventure path book. I was really looking forward to getting that adventure in hardcover! If you like that sort mission (as do I), I very much recommend the underrated 1e module UK3: The Gauntlet. I've always thought this...

Perhaps you are correct about the price one would have to pay. Paizo's Pathfire adventure path uses a monthly subscription magazine format, although they don't call it a magazine. These magazines (or gamebooks or modules or whatever you want to call them) cost $30 each today (cheaper by...

How I long for the return of Dungeon magazine. Magazines haven't died off yet and, for a reasonable annual subscription, you could get 4-7 adventures per month for an average of around 48-84 adventures per year. Since it was mostly written by freelancers, all you need is an editorial and...

This may sound a bit silly, but my original group and I always liked the 1e MM illustration of the rust monster rusting away the border of the box highlighting his illustration.

The pair of vampires are hot. Makes me wonder if the artist just binge watched the "Twilight" series.

She also did the cover to issue 61. Can't recall off hand if there were any other ones. (UPDATE --- She did the cover on 51 also.)

I was always intrigued by the wizard watching from the shadows. Is the boy supposed to be his apprentice or his son? I guess I'll never know.

The Susan Collins (who signed her artwork "Shay") covers for Dragon were my favorites. This one is awesome, just like all the others!

There are three Barnes & Noble stores in my general area, as well as a Books-a-Million, which is about the same size as the Barnes & Noble stores. All those stores used to keep the D&D novels in the sci-fi/fantasy section rather than the Young Adult section. I haven't checked all the stores in...

Speak for yourself! I'm a hip, out there, groovy dude!

Your presumption is that the new D&D tone does appeal to contemporary audiences. Maybe it does, but given the amount of dissatisfaction expressed in this thread, perhaps this is not what contemporary audiences want. Companies do not always do a good job of anticipating what their customers...

What does the vertical axis represent? Seems low for dollar sales per year. Is it unit sales per year or something else?

Wow, I guess I'll have to try to be somewhat careful with it (which will be rather hard to do since it's going to be scraping across on the table all the time). Maybe a bit of wear will give it some character
