[QUOTE="The Myopic Sniper, post: 6361998, member: 55013"] I am not really surprised by this given their general strategy to limit book and splat bloat. Although, if they produced a bunch of reasonably priced boxed sets with a bunch of maps in them and a 32 or 64 page booklet giving a broad overview of each setting as a DM tool, I might jump on each of those. Just give me the tools and I will figure out what to do with it. All the historical detail and what-not can be made available on the internet for those who want a more in depth look. I am not sure that a 400 page tome of hyperdetailed history really has enough of a market to deserve their investment in time and resources into developing. Yeah, they could throw special classes, feats and spells unavailable anywhere else to get players to buy as well, but that is the total opposite of their stated plans for this edition. I think it is a good call on their part. [/QUOTE]
