This week's Dragon Talk covers Lantan - and Chris Perkins says it will be featured in an upcoming product!

The discussion of Lantan starts about a half hour in. They discuss what little is known about its history, smokepowder, constructs and so on. Chris Perkins says it was on the map of Chult on purpose and will be appearing in a future product. They also discuss its connections to modrons and Spelljamming in response to viewer questions.

Lantan would be an excellent place to feature the artificer once it has been completed, and there seems to be strong hints that a modron adventure is coming (although not necessarily tied to Lantan).

Interesting! Has Lantan ever appeared in any detail before?

Not much at all; at most some vague overviews in older general FR products. They even mention how little is known of it compared to the rest of the setting. Really, once the 3.x era came to a close, it was just about the only large area in the setting that had not had been detailed in some accessory or other. Basically, what we know now is what we knew when the Gray Box came out: Gond, gnomes, guns, and gears.

I like Greg Tito's energy but i find him hard to listen to with all the uh uh uh from a communications manager for WoTC. Personal pet peev for me since I have to be on and listen to a lot of teleconferences for work. Ended up forwarded to at least. The part where Perkins and Matt were engaged.

I thought it was odd how, even though he asked the others how to pronounce "Lantan", he went on pronouncing it "LAN-tan" instead of "LAN-TAN".
 


I imagine in will be the fall 2018 release. This feels like the equivalent of teasing the Ring of Winter.
And Perkins didn't do much for the 2017 spring release. I imagine the next storyline - like Curse of Strahd and Tales from the Yawning Portal - will be reprint heavy.
