[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8006740, member: 6802378"] Some theories says Athas (Dark Sun) is a demiplane, out of the material plane. The lore of the D&D can allow crossover with sci-fi, but with the gameplay the things are different. D20 isn't ready for PC ewoks against stormstroopers. With high-tech you can send a drone to kill a dinosaur with only a shot. I have mentioned several times the sourcebook "Chronomancers" because my opinion is this forgotten title could allow lots of different variants of the D&D worlds, for example a Krynn where lord Soth traveled to the past and avoided the cataclysm to clean his honor, but now this is the battlefield among two different timelines/uchronies, one rule by the king-priest and the other where Raistlin became a deity. I say again WotC should recover the concept of time sphere and even allowing in DM Guild different time spheres to be published. Other suggestion is allowing a "spin-off" about the dark powers from the demiplane of the horror tainting some places in different material planes, even someones with modern age technology. I would bet if Gamma World come back, it will be like a D&D world, because this a powerful brand what helps to sell more. The challenge is 5th Ed isn't ready for a Conan the barbarian vs Salomon Kane, or a Robin Hood vs Lone Ranger. The power balance is broken easily with the firearms are added. This is very important if WotC wants videogames with different playables factions. [/QUOTE]
