[QUOTE="Najo, post: 3980548, member: 9959"] I think your right about that. They can update the core rules at any time with the new model. Very intriguing ;) I also think we are going to see something more like this for campaign releases: 2008 Forgotten Realms 2009 Eberron 2010 Planescape 2011 Darksun 2012 New 4e setting 2013 Spelljammer 2014 Ravenloft As for Dragonlance and Greyhawk, I don't think they are coming any time soon, unless one of them replaces the 2012 slot, and could happen. I just think that Forgotten Realms and Eberron fill the niche better than Dragonlance and Greyhawk for typical D&D style of play. The truth is, Dragonlance is too tied to the novels to work well as a campaign setting and Greyhawk has some very loyal fans and is the history of D&D, but in reality not as popular as the other settings. I think 3.0/3.5 attempted to use Greyhawk as best they could (though other than the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer it never really got a campaign setting book worthy of its name). I also think the Expedition series, along with a few other releases, was an experiment. Those books covered Ravenloft, Greyhawk, Planescape and Forgotten Realms. The books were intentional aimed at highlevel parties and marketed entirely off of old settings. I am sure the sales of those items indicates the interest of long term players in those settings. I would bet Ravenloft and Planescape sold better than the other two. [/QUOTE]
