[QUOTE="GarrettKP, post: 7749280, member: 6811472"] Here is what I think will happen (based on rereading the article as well as some others arguments on here): We get 3 products. 2 small Summer ones and 1 big Winter one. The 2 Summer products will be Darksun and Ebberon PDFs, primers like the first chapter of Curse of Strahd but presented like the Elemental Evil Players Companion (as in a free PDF). It will include some races they have playtested before (Warforged, Shifter, and so on) as well as any rules that are needed to run the setting (Dragon Marks, General info on how Races from the PHB fit into the settings, and so on). Don't expect major rules drop like Psion, but they may release the new playtest versions of the Psion and Artificer to coincide with this. These will be only a primer and will hold people over until Artificer and Psion are finished in time for official hardcovers in these settings, likely next year. The big Winter product is the heavily hinted at 4th Hardcover. It will hit in December and either be a Planescape Adventurer's Guide touching on Sigil and other planes, or it will be an entirely new publication and surprise us (my guess would be either Perkins or Crawfords homeworlds).
