[QUOTE="William Ronald, post: 2461975, member: 426"] I must have missed that post, but if WotC is thinking of a new edition, Mike Mearls would be a good man to have on the team. (Mind you, I tend to be a bit skeptical about 4E coming out soon as I have seen little evidence of this. However, if we banned speculation about future products, the boards would have far fewer threads.) If this speculation is correct, I hope that WotC would at least have extensive playtesting. However, I fear that might be some resistance to a new edition in the next few years. Also, it might be possible to bring back some former WotC employees for such a big project. There are some factors that might impact a 4E release date. For example, if Hasbro sells the D&D license (or the RPG division, or Wizards), a new owner might want a new edition to recover the money spent on such a big purchase. Or possibly, a new owner might wait to build up a little trust with the customers. Rasyr, thanks for the information! So, what do you think are some of the reasons for WotC to create a new edition and what changes would you like to see to the rules? [/QUOTE]
