Message: <blockquote data-quote="Parmandur" data-source="post: 8360094" data-attributes="member: 6780330">As a preliminary note, I will suggest that we might see some of these categories break down a bit: the Strixhaven book is what I would call a Setting book, but it has a campaign compromised of 4 modular adventures that covers Levels 1-10, so it might also count as an Adventure book.I think we will see 5 books a year, as they have 5 project leads now, so one book per year each from each of thw following:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Jeremy Crawford (who did Tasha's last year and focused on helping Hamon ramp up for Strixhaven in 2021)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">F. Wesley Schneider (Theros in 2020, Rabenloft in 2021)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Chris Perkins (led on Wildemount & Icewind Dale in 2020, Candlekeep & Witchlight in 2021)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">James Wyatt (helped Crawford with Ravnoca in 2018, Eberron in 2019, Theros I'm 2020, and Fizban's in 2021)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Amanda Hamon (worked on Ravenloft as a freelancer & project lead fpr Strixhaven with Crawford's help in 2021)</li> </ul>A couple things stand out: Perkins is the "Adventure Guy,"  but has also helped with Setting books (Eberron & Wildemount). Crawford is the "Rules Guy," but has also been involved with Settings (Ravnica, Eberron, Strixhaven). The other 3 have primarily worked on Setting books. We know that Perkins is leading one of the two "Classic" Settong projects, and my guess is he will bring us Planescape in 2021. We also know that they have another Classic Setting vbook, my guess is Dark Sun, and I will go a step further and say that Schneider is a good fit for that project, having navigated darker and more divergent Settigns already (Theros & Rabenloft) particularly handling the potentially problematic aspects of those Settings elegantly.That leaves two brand new Settings not related to Magic, and a returning Setting (probably the Forgotten Realms). That's 5 books in 2022-2023, and 10 books seems a fair guess.For the remaining 5, I forsee 2 big "storyline" Adventure books, and 1-2 compilations as those seem successful. Throw in 1-2 Magoc Settings, and we have a 2 year schedule with room for pruning. I'll go a step further into speculation,  and guess we may see a Kamogawa: Neon Dynasty tie-in Setting book to provide a less Eurocentric Settijf in the mix.I don't think we will see any big straight Supplements, but who knows.</blockquote>
