[QUOTE="renau1g, post: 5427258, member: 54810"] For those not really following 4e, Wizards just cut their book offering this year in half. From [URL="http://www.wizards.com/dnd/article.aspx?x=dnd/dramp/2011January"]today's Ampersand[/URL] (emphasis mine) : D&D RPG Product Release Updates Despite the best laid plans, sometimes we make changes to the D&D product release schedule. Usually this happens well before we’ve communicated our plans, but sometimes we must make changes to schedules that have already been announced. That happens to be the case we have here. We have made the decision to depart from prepainted plastic miniatures sets. Lords of Madness stands as the final release under that model. We will continue to release special collector’s sets (such as the Beholder Collector’s Set we released last fall), as well as make use of plastic figures in other product offerings. Check out the Wrath of Ashardalon board game next month for the latest example of this. Moving forward, we will continue to explore more options for players to represent characters and monsters on the tabletop, including Monster Vault and other D&D products that feature monster and character tokens. The Heroes of Shadow product, originally scheduled for March and presented in digest-sized, paperback format, is moving to April to accommodate a change to hardcover format. [B]Additionally, three D&D RPG products have been removed from the 2011 release schedule—Class Compendium: Heroes of Sword and Spell, Mordenkainen’s Magnificent Emporium, and Hero Builder’s Handbook.[/B] While this means fewer books, we plan to deliver just as much great content for players this year through other formats, including board games, accessories, and digital offerings. I’ll keep you up-to-date on the latest releases each month as we go along. So barring further announcements, the ONLY book [URL="http://www.wizards.com/dnd/Catalog.aspx"]releases[/URL] this year are Heroes of Shadow (APR), Shadowfell (JUN), and the Monster Vault: TttNV (JUN). So....yeah... [/QUOTE]
