[QUOTE="Mercurius, post: 8241440, member: 59082"] You're assuming that a single book on the planes is the maximum we're getting. I'm not so sure. What we could see, and what I would advocate for, is a Manual of the Planes book which covers planar rules, some monsters, short descriptions of the planes, and chapters dedicated to variant cosmologies. Then you can branch out with story arc books that give more detail for a given location or sub-setting in the planes (Avernus already did this, to some extent). They could do an adventure set in Sigil and the Outlands akin to what Tomb of Annihilation did for Chult. Or they could do a story arc involving the githyanki that explores and describes the Astral Sea and gives rules on spelljamming. In fact, I think it more likely that we see that type of book first, and then a more general MotP book shortly thereafter. WotC clearly likes books that are multi-faceted and with different components integrated into a whole. The idea that we'd see them cover the planes in a "one and done" approach is rather odd, not to mention almost neglectful. [/QUOTE]
