Incredible lore (that mimic tower!) linked into the Points of Light world, but evocative enough that you can file off the numbers and reuse the entire faction anywhere; great mechanics to build interesting fights; and of course 4e's tight math meaning you can quickly scale things up and down to fill out encounters with specific roles or threats you want to bring in to fit the narrative or moment.Now that enough new players are here that they don't have to worry about a bunch of grumpy grognards tossing the table and affecting sales dramatically & teh digital tools actually exist to make complex things easy to automate (and of course 1st party ones coming), you can see WOTC bringing back a lot of the 4e concepts for this iteration.</blockquote>
