[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 7664369, member: 18182"] That's silly. GAMA is a trade show for vendors, not for fans. WotC has never used GAMA, to my recollection, as a venue for major spoilers on products the fans are anticipating. Gaming conventions make much more sense for those kind of reveals, especially GenCon. WotC never even hinted that major news was going to drop at GAMA. The folks complaining about the lack of major news are premature. My guess, and it's only a guess, is that WotC OF COURSE has plans for the rest of 2015, but those plans are somewhat in flux and not ready to be announced quite yet. WotC has learned the hard way that if you announce a product, then later change your plans, the crankier fans get all in a tizzy. Heck, this happens even when WotC doesn't announce things, like the changes to the Elemental Evil Player's Companion. While I would have loved for some juicy tidbits over GAMA, I'm fine with waiting for WotC to fill me in on their plans when they are ready to do so. I've got plenty of fun games to play, including 5th edition, while I wait. [/QUOTE]
