Whether this means reprints or renewed support of classic fluff, or a series of 4e Neverwinter style campaign books to update and collate time periods for locales from early Greenwood to the Abeir-Toril jumble. I agree that SW: RPG  eras are a good example of how to handle a long timeline and cater to a wide array of preferences.The question becomes location specific or era specific? I think era specific continues fractures in the fan base. All eras in one location specific book adds up to a lot of wasted pages for most groups. The easiest way WotC can serve all eras and obey the Hasbro PDF leads to piracyomgbbq is to add Out-of-Print titles up to a DDI style service. Subscription for continued access to the entire FR library with conversion note articles as a bonus. This leaves them the freedom to pick and choose good campaign locations and eras for books. Time of Troubles adventure path? Fall of Netheril massive event for GenCon? The quest for lost Maztica after the Spellplague? I don't know but it helps WotC utilize back titles without the suits freaking out and opens up FR for a big resurgence.</blockquote>
