Shining South vs Waterdeep

[Trellian]

So, has Wizards decided to change their plans for a Waterdeep book to a Shining South book? If so, I'm glad. This will give players and DM new areas to explore, instead of just revisiting old places.

I'd actually prefer the basics (Waterdeep, The North, Swordcoast, Heartlands, Dalelands, Cormyr, Moonsea) before going into border territory, but anyways, every new FR sourcebook is good.

Calimshan or Amn would be pretty nice, too.

They are doing both - Shining South later this year and Waterdeep in 2005

I don't get it - we already *have* good source material on those regions, even if all of it isn't 3.x. There is scant material on the Shining South, The Golden Water, etc.

Waterdeep was always ment for 2005 to coinside with the novel that Ed Greenwood and Elaine Cunningham were writing.

also in the future when posting something that involves wizards making a change, post a link that refrences the change you're talking about.

Yeah, I know, though not everyone has them.

I'd still prefer high quality 3E versions of these sourcebooks over regions like the Shining South, which are of less use all in all.

Well, the only "reference" was that the Waterdeep book was missing from the Wotc schedule right here at enworld, and a Shining South book was there instead.

Also, what is of less use is subjective. At least I'm sick of holding campaigns based in Waterdeep or Cormyr.
