MerricB: Charles, with this larger printing/shipping, would that be due to a prediction of interest on the part of the distributors, or due to player feedback at gaming stores?
Charles: Primarily the response we've seen from distribution, but we're getting terrific response from the gaming community as well. I don't think anyone is going to be disappointed!
MerricB: I'm very pleased to see the aid for DMs in preparing adventures that has recently been coming from Wizards: Heroes of Battle, Sandstorm and Frostburn are all excellent (IMO) in providing the actual tools of running good games.
Charles: Thanks for the kind comments. Most of us here are DMs as well as designers (or business managers), so we've been paying a lot of attention lately to how to make the DM's job easier!
