[QUOTE="Irda Ranger, post: 116985, member: 1003"] [b]Re: Dragonlance is no longer a playable campaign setting for me[/b] This all applies to me too. I have to say that I completely agree with this. I haven't even read The War of Souls Tril simply because the world of DL is so different now from the world that I have read in books over and over again (because I own and love everything else TH&MW have done). I think that the only way that the new Campaign Setting would be playable for me is if they prefaced it with "Let's pretend that the Chaos War was a big bad dream, there are three moons in the sky, Raistlin is out there somewhere and the world needs your help clearing it of Draconians and the Knights of Takhisis (about the only good thing that came out after DL Legends)." I wouldn't mind rules for the Age of Despair and the Age of Might if they really wanted to, but get the Age of Mortals out'ta there!! I would like to note that I liked the concept of the Age of Mortals from a story point of view, but I wouldn't find it very playable. If I wanted to be a powerless, magic-less mortal with no god-wars, I would go play basketball. D&D is all about the fantasy after all :) (Yes, I know, SAGA added magic back in, but that was never DL to me) As a last couple notes, I think that Kenders have to be handled very carefully to make them Tasslehof and not mindless idiots; I think that Minotaurs and Irda should be ECL-types, not watered down; and I think they should get REAL EDITORS for any future non-MW&TH novels, not people who let BASIC TIMELINE, DIVINE and RACE mistakes get published (there are so many I can't count them). Oh, and the lack of Orc/Drow/Underdark stuff was one thing that made DL unique to me. I liked it. God darn it I can't wait for this to come out.
