[QUOTE="mmaranda, post: 4134397, member: 55071"] Chris Tulach was at [URL=http://www.conncon.com/]ConnCon[/URL] today and he mentioned several interesting facts in a speech he presented at dinner. Origins is expected to have 2 new 4E "preview" style adventures. Return to the Moathouse is going to be one of them. It will be a delve back into the moathouse near Homlet. Mike Mearls is slated to write it. Winter Fantasy and other Cons are expected to be test beds for new concepts. They may have opportunities to play Pre-Generated characters with new skill, powers, classes or races. And Developers will be on hand to receive feedback. DDI will be a place where they preview ideas before things get to print. World Wide Games Day will be the day after 4E is released to stores. June 6th is the release and 7th is the games day <My notes don't have the dates so I am puling them from memory>. One of the trivia style games is going to be a D&D family feud thing. Chris claimed it was fun. WWGD will have more events than appeared last year (still only one mod, but trivia games, and the like). It will be 4E and is expected to be a lead up to Keep on the Shadowfell. [COLOR=Green]RPGA in general information:[/COLOR] RPGA Classics will return. They will be D&D Championship preliminary and final adventures. They will be released as classics after their time as championship qualifiers is over. [COLOR=DarkOrange]Living Forgotten Realms specific new:[/COLOR] All major cons (Origins, Gen-Con, D&D XP) will have 2 round specials. LFR adventures will have an expected 3 month development time and each story line and final adventure will be cleared by WotC. WotC will be buying the writes to all mods written. There are expected to be several dozen mods released at the start of the campaign. Still no decision on: How treasure will be handled, what Interactives will be like (if they exist), what there will be (if anything) to act as Time Units/upkeep [/QUOTE]
