For example, until they elected to reprint the Dark Sun novels, I'd have absolutely been of the mind that a re-imagining would be the only way to go because there weren't other DS products in print. Now, I think they need to think about keeping connections to those novels... but I still think re-imagining is the way to go with that setting.In defense of the Red Dragonflight, they are singlehandedly defending Wyrmrest Temple from the Blue Dragonflight and any other threats (the other Dragonflights have ambassadors there, but no actual troops) and trying to reclaim the Ruby Dragonshrine from the Scourge (who is raising their own dead against them), and whatever they're doing at Grim Batol. They are stretching themselves perilously thin.</blockquote>
