D&D 5E What big thing is supposed to be next week?

[Falstaff]

Guess I better start practicing my exaggerated yawn.

 

[Gundark]

Okay, I am going to go out on a limb here a say something far fetched . They are having EN World break the news about 5th edition.

 

[El Mahdi]

ENWorld has hired Monte Cook away from WotC, and is producing ENWorld Unearthed...

 

[Aeolius]

EN World will be featured on a new episode of Will it Blend? entitled "EN Whirled".

 

[Therise]

Well, whatever it is, I hope there's cake involved. Maybe a nice German Chocolate with homemade coconut-pecan frosting... or a NY-style cheesecake with cherry topping.

 

[Nagol]

The cake is a lie.

 

[Greg K]

Orc and pie is a lie.

They announce Monte and Mearls will be developing a 5e based upon a cleaned up version of Iron Heroes?

They announce 5e will be based upon 3e incorporating ideas an material in the various Book of Might series from Monte's Malhavoc?

They built a time travel device and announce that they will be skipping straight to 7e?

I have no idea...

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

The cake is a lie.

Orc and pie is a lie...

Thus, the cake is an Orc and pie.

 

[Aeolius]

Thus, the cake is an Orc and pie.

Orc and Pie :
"Adventure Background: An orc has a pie.
Adventure Synopsis: The PCs kill the orc and take his pie.
Adventure Hook: The PCs are hungry for pie.

Room 1: The Orc's Pie Room
You see an orc with a pie.
The room is 10 feet by 10 feet.
Creature: An orc.
Treasure: A pie.

Concluding the Adventure: Pie tastes good.
Further Adventures: Somewhere, there is a bakery making these good pies. Perhaps it's guarded by more orcs."

Considering the sheer time it would take to do 5e, it would be insane unless WotC had a time machine.

...

OMG WoTC HAS A TIME MACHINE!

Not possible.

I would have it first. And the world ... would not be what it is now.
