Message: <blockquote data-quote="Henadic Theologian" data-source="post: 9446283" data-attributes="member: 7030526">Okay the video calls it the Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide, but the Beyond Article, calls it the Forgotten Realms Adventures Guide, the name differences suggest very different things. It does say full sized books, I had been thinking 190 pages for the FRPG previously, but if the general overview is in the FRPG, then I'm thinking 256 to 320 pages for the FRPG, outside chance of it being 385 paged like the 2024 PHB.  Less player options then I expected, vastly more lore then I expected. I now thing FRPG will be the bigger book, the other one is a mix of regional gazetteers and dms advise for FR and FR monsters. Maybe adventure maps too. Could even have intro Adventures for each of those 5 regions. <a href="https://www.dndbeyond.com/posts/1807-d-d-direct-recap-a-look-at-two-forgotten-realms" target="_blank">https://www.dndbeyond.com/posts/1807-d-d-direct-recap-a-look-at-two-forgotten-realms</a><h2>"Two Full-Sized Forgotten Realms Sourcebooks with Player Options and More</h2>When we revisited the core rules for fifth edition D&D, we were spurred to also revisit the game’s most popular setting: the Forgotten Realms. The setting will be featured in two full-sized sourcebooks—The Forgotten Realms Player Guide (working title) and The Forgotten Realms Adventure Guide (working title).The Forgotten Realms Player Guide contains everything players and Dungeon Masters need to play in this beloved D&D setting. It contains a setting overview for new and returning players, as well as the following player options:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Subclasses</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Feats</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Backgrounds</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Spells and a new type of spell</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Key information on factions such as the Harpers and Zhentarim and how to join them</li> </ul>The Forgotten Realms Adventure Guide will be a trove of information and resources for Dungeon Masters to create their own epic fantasy adventures. It will also contain five in-depth setting guides for iconic locations in the Forgotten Realms that support a variety of adventure genres:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Baldur’s Gate</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Calimshan</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Dalelands</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Moonshae Isles</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Icewind Dale"</li> </ul></blockquote>
