Damn beaten to the punch :P Was distracted by news.

One thing that caught my eye was the Plane of Dreams, I wonder what will come from there.

Also, this; "This world may be Abeir-Toril, Athas, Eberron, Krynn, Oerth, or a world of your own devising." Now they may simply have listed off some settings, but perhaps it is a hint at what is to come. Obviously; Abeir-Toril and Eberron we already know about. But the mention of Athas could mean Dark Sun is coming, Kyrnn could mean Dragonlance is coming and Oerth for Greyhawk (but I think this was already known).

They mention to before their example of how the cosmology is strucutred in 4e; "Here are a few suggestions." So I wonder if they will list more then one style of cosmology perhaps show for those who want say Great Wheel how to fit that in, etc.

It appears under the excerpt from Open Grave that Nerull was once the ruler of death and Raven Queen was his successor.

Tiamat being statted out could be our first glimpse of what a full on god is like in 4e, in terms of power-level.

This caught my eye regarding the Draconomicon:

1 of 4 new dracoliches in the book . . . and for that matter 1 of 15 new undead dragons.
 



I really like the preview of the new cosmology. I find the categorization of the planes very evocative but also exhaustive in its scope. Also, I consider interesting the following line: "This plane also encompasses the space between worlds".
 

I'm looking forward to Martial Power, but the feats don't particularly excite me. Can't they think of anything other than enhancing Dragon Breath for dragonborn racial feats?


cheers
 


The fluff in the undead book was interesting. I wonder if we'll see something in there about souls and what power they may or may not grant to those that consume them. That would be great (especially if it was more than a couple of paragraphs).

I'm looking forward to the MotP. I always like plane hopping campaigns.
