WotC is saving me a lot of money these days.

If the hardback is a collection of short adventures set in a sandbox Sword Coast, it could be very interesting.

Is the ”&” the ‘1’ or the ‘20’? If the ‘1’ then I will spend my money on pints and crisps.

Yep, that's the traditional spot for the 20, next to the 2,8, and 14

Those are some pretty dice. Not sure if I'm interested, though I might get them for my wife as they are her favorite color.

Are the dice metal? I just got the Ultra Pro Heavy Metal 7dice set(the black and red with the ampend in red) for 61 bucks after tax, and I'm gonna be super sad if I could've gotten the same thing in a different color and for less with this.

Still like it though.

These look plastic, I think this set has more similarities to the avernus set than anything else.

I know! Why are they so large?!

Too many jokes....

I like FR. Both the campaign I'm playing in and the one I just started take place on FR. But come on, yet another Sword Coast map? Hell, I even like the region, but it's just disappointing that it's all WotC shrunked down FR into.

 

[Fenris-77]

Every release can't be the next big thing. If the new book is indeed sandbox adventures I'd be pretty ok with it. FR is my sort-of every other campaign setting anyway, especially waterdeep, so if it ties in that's cool.

This would have been a GREAT product at 5E's release. Now? I don't know. I doubt those index cards are all that useful at this point. We'll see.
