Yes, it is part of the original conceit, despite the novels, comics, and video games based on the setting . . . but that was then, WotC is free to change things up.I'm not sure the setting timeline needs to be advanced or metaplot needs to be added in, but . . . I completely agree with your assessment that WotC doesn't seem to know what to do with Eberron. I've enjoyed all three 5E releases so far, but both the Wayfinder's Guide and Forge of the Artificer are oddly structured/released books. There's reasons for that, but none-the-less . . .Don't let grumpy fans get you down. Our hobby has too many folks ready to find insult when you criticize, however mildly, their favorite setting.Maybe. But the new book is oddly structured still. On it's own, it can stand apart mechanically, but doesn't give you much in the way of setting. If you are new to Eberron, it's odd and may be off-putting. I understand why they did what they did with Forge of the Artificer (I think), but it's still kinda weird.Still, I'm very happy with the revised player's options in Forge of the Artificer, so I'm not complaining . . . merely observing.</blockquote>
