I honestly think their plan is to scrap the crystal sphere idea and have Wildspace be like, maybe a Sub-region of the astral. While I’m not 100% okay with this change, it kinda DOES remove the old concern of “why don’t groundlings know about Spelljammer culture and why don’t spacers just...

And I wouldn’t. It’s it wonderful how we can both have our opinions on this and neither of us is “wrong?” We’re just not always going to be happy when a sales decision comes that pleases some of us but not all.

My “come-back,” in so far as I need one (which is to say not at all because I’m not trying to impress anyone here), is that Beyond used to pretty frequently drop discount codes usable for a single book here and there. Maybe wait and scoop one of those and get it closer to your desired price...

I mean Zub as Minsc fits what they did at the one live event. Shame there’s no Mercer as Boo again though.

Eh, disagree here. Plus if you’re preordering on amazon you get the cheapest price between your order and when it drops so you likely won’t even pay that.

I’m not sure where you’re getting that idea from? DDB has pretty much always been around $25 for a book that retails for $50. Now Roll20 usually sells them for $50…

Yeah definitely a rip off. Not like those 2e boxed sets with multiple fragile softcover side stapled booklets or perfect bound ones that would come unglued from their bindings stuffed in a half empty box hat that would get banged up and crushed by hardcovers in your duffel bag on the way to...

I mean I definitely makes it easier to take the one book out to toss to your players for PC options without needing to worry about them peeking at monsters or the adventure.

I may be mistaken but I believe the said something like October… 4th? Something like that. For Stormwreck I mean.

So pretty much most of what we expected. Slipcase format I would say meets the “new format” criteria because while we’ve had gift set repacks in slipcases before, we’ve never had a major new release done this way. I wonder if the Dragonlance game is gonna be a way to handle mass battle rules...

I mean we still don’t know for sure how/if they’re handling he phlogiston but yeah. I just hope they don’t totally merge the two into one thing but even so, the intro had the feel I was hoping for so I’m happy for now.

Oh I used to play Heroclix competitively - I’m more than aware lol

I’m still a bit curious if they’re planning to blend the Astral Plane in since they keep referring to the “astral sea” but they also called it “Wildspace” as well. But the whole “dead gods” angle is very much an astral plane touchstone too.

AND ship scale figures! Oh man. This is like my birthday come several months early. This is pretty much everything I could have hoped for really in the first like eight minutes.

A PROPER campaign setting! And the slipcase people were right!

I went to bed extra early last night just so it would be today sooner so I could watch this. Big “kid on Christmas Eve” logic for me today.

I mean I kinda do too, but eventually it starts to make me worry about Lucy forever snatching the football away at the last second. Just gonna keep my fingers crossed over here I guess.

I mean it’s less “April Fool” and more “running joke for the last three or so years” but yeah it definite feels at this point like we’re all just playing the biggest “gosh I have no idea what you’re talking about” possible, with a big theatrical wink attached to it. I honestly am just at the...

My guess for the video game (based on the Xbox controller) is maybe a Series S/X port of Baldur’s Gate 3? Maybe a timed console exclusive but I have to think the choice of an Xbox controller was deliberate? They’ll probably announce other games too but that’s my bet for the “big” video game...

I remember thinking Warduke was so unbelievably badass as a kid. I mean how can you not love that helmet?!? It’s a shame he canonically has such a one-note personality in Witchlight. I may have juice him up a bit if I ever get around to running that adventure.
