GameHole Con Hints At An "As Yet Unannounced Setting" for D&D This Year

Thomas Valley, GameHoleCon's Adventurer's League coordinator, is currently asking for volunteer DMs for the show in November. As part of the post he refers to "The premiere of an Epic event set in as yet unannounced setting" and "The premiere of adventures set in as yet unannounced setting".

​

Ravnica was introduced in 2018, and Eberron support was added to the DM's Guild. Other than that, most of the official D&D stuff has all been set in the Forgotten Realms (Curse of Strahd notwithstanding).

This could be a whole new setting; it might just be a region of the Realms.

In related news, WotC's Nathan Stewart tweeted the word "SPELLJAMMER" a week or so back. He has a history of teasing his Twitter followers with hints about settings which - as yet - haven't come to fruition, so take that with as much or as little salt as you wish!

Anyone want to bet it's the world of Critical Roll?

Green Ronin has already released a Tal'Dorei campaign setting.

It may be Dragonlance because this year is the anniversary, ...

Technically every year is the anniversary

You know what? If they make Spelljammer, I'll buy TWO copies (oooooo). One standard and one "collector's edition" assuming they do it. Now I just wait... I've waited this long, what's a couple more years?

Mark my words, 5E Spelljammer is going to get folded into Planescape and you'll be Jammin' through the Astral instead of between the Spheres.

That sounds great! Combining the astral plane Githyanki with the spelljammer pirates Githyanki, the void with the mindscape with the astral sea of dreams. Astral dreadnaughts as a kind of sea serpent.

If they arent developping this they should and they should hurry up.

Maybe the FR "Pirates" adventure will be set in the Sea of Falling Stars instead of along the Sword Coast.

I DMed AL at last year's Gamehole Con, but this is the first I'm hearing about this. Should I have gotten an email?

Thanks! Then let’s meetup and find out together!

Today the D&D YouTube channel posted a LYSK about the "Rule of Threes" - direct nod to Planescape. Fingers crossed.

Of course, our group will be wrapping up our Planescape campaign right about then, so, dang.

Hoping it's Star Frontiers!
