After that I'd say a new setting would be almost certain after 3 revisits in a row. Dragonlance or Ravenloft would most likely follow in year 5 - although I could see Ravenloft being "backdoored" in earlier through being a sample setting in a horror book.I could be wrong and they might release psionics without any related setting, but Dark Sun and psionics are so closely tied (with elementalism and Dark Sun not far behind), it wouldn't make a lot of sense to not tie them together. Plus, even early on when I wasn't a fan of 4e at all, it was clear that Dark Sun and 4e are a perfect match. Points of light, intensity of combat and "over the topness" of PC's abilities, plus Dark Sun was the only setting to incorporate Epic and the precursor to epic destinies right into the setting (Dragon Kings book).</blockquote>
