This was actually one of my suggestions with the Wesley fighter. You have studied various fighting styles and can switch to the weapons to best handle the situation. 5e tends to give fighters everything (weapon prof) or almost nothing (fighting styles). Every class should have some mechanic...

Adult as in mature. Dark Sun, Planescape and Ravenloft are some of the best written settings for the game and deal with some pretty heavy topics.

You'd have to do it right of course, but adults seemed RPGs have been highly successful in the past. Vampire the masquerade when it hit rewrote the rules on what was allowed. I'm not saying go all r-rated but you can have mature themes. Despite the debacle that was the end of game of thrones...

It wouldn't be as much of a hurdle as you would think. That was a major factor in games like Skyrim. The Dark elves had their own enclave which was a major plot point. The best time for them to release greyhawk to capture its theme would have been the height of game of thrones. Yes they have...

Why do you think the known world is still so popular? That's our bag baby

That's another thing made me question their choice of modules. They let Goodman remake lost city and expedition. So why remake them when you still have dozens of other modules to convert? Instead of lost city you had Rahasia, Palace of the Silver Princess or even Horror on the Hill. Those...

They did kind of miss an obvious layup on that one

An old interview had them explaining that the fewer monsters they put in their setting the less they would have to explain in the novels. Some of it was personal taste, they wanted a restricted game world instead of the kitchen sinks that had been produced at that point.

For me the traitor was the wife, as she was made up specifically for this adventure, Silverhand in lore is married to an Elf named the Tall Lord, and they've got 7 sons. She's an agent of Vecna, has the crown and is going to betray the wizards when the rod is assembled. The party has a change...

Which is a bit ironic because Red Steel was a retcon of Savage Coast. The whole boxed set didn't make sense; good luck making any sense out of the map of the curse in the player's guide to the write-ups of the nations in the DM's guide

The inside joke for Mystara players is that the Red Steel setting includes multiple versions of Spain throughout various parts of history, as well as another Spain in the nation of Glantri. The problem with all the Spains is they are all right next to each other except for the last one. So...
