Looked up godly for past edition Outlands domains and most are on the map, except Silvanus, Oghma, Untamo, Io, Eadro. Io realm's location is unknown, Silvanus and Eadro's realms might be in the Hinterlands, if that is still a thing, or moved to a more suitable Plane like the Beastlands or a Divine Domain in the Astral Sea (Beastlands seems to make more sense for Silvanus), Oghma's House of Knowledge was near the Spire, which made little sense to be, House of Knowledge fits better in Mechanus or Aborea, or on an Astral Domain. No idea about Untamo.

I guess about $200, going by the current one’s $170 MSRP and the $10 price increase per book

Don't forget the DM screen: they currently value those at $20, but thst might ho up by 20%, too.

Core gift set: MSRP for 3 books plus $20 for a box and DM screen

Spelljammer Set: MSRP for 1 book plus $20 for a DM screen, box and map

Planescape set: MSRP for 1 book plus $24 for a box, DM screen, and map

Ergo, MSRP for three books plus $24 for a DM screen and box comes to ~$204 USD @Henadic Theologian

My gut tells me that this is WotC's way of trying to get people to switch to D&D Beyond. With a $35 difference it just might work. I understand that the cost of just about everything has gone up in the last 3 years, but I can't see any way to justify that much of a price increase. If that's the cost for 200 pages I can only imagine what the 300+ pages for the D&D2024 core books are going to cost.

If that was the case the should drop the wonderful alt covers. They are basically forcing me to but the physical books!

Their Wyatt of bifurcation people between FLGS and Beyond, competing with Target and Amazon prices.

about $200 covers $204 as well

I guess we will see, the bigger difference will be the Amazon discount anyway

Oh, yeah, just talking MSRP.

If the MSRP is ~$85 for a standard cover at a LGS, how much more are the alt covers?

No price difference.

 

[Zaukrie]

This feels very much like something from a book designed to be read, rather than a book designed for at the table play.

I think this is an adventure I want to run. Can we stop the town from going away?

the same, the difference is that I haven’t seen the alt covers discounted by 30% to 50%, like I see the regular ones at Amazon
