[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 8221886, member: 11760"] Dragons + Fey could add up to Throne of Eldraine. If we had gotten another draconic UA, I would have said we're looking at a Draconomicon, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards as of mid-March 2021. I do think a planar sourcebook seems likely. Or, barring that, this year's big adventure book could be a plane-hopping gith-focused one that includes a de facto planar gazetteer and include spelljamming rules. It's also possible for them to double-dip and do a sourcebook and adventure centered around the same idea in a year, but I don't recall them doing that in the past, beyond freebie products like the Elemental Players Companion. Add a stop in Sigil, and you've got one of your three classic settings checked off. I don't think we will see Dark Sun or Dragonlance as the big adventure of 2021, since those adventures are meant to be slotted into existing campaigns with little work, and that's not easily possible with either of those.
