What do you think the new setting will be, from Ampersand?

[QUOTE="jsaving, post: 4692967, member: 16726"] Considering Wyatt has been the driving force behind OA, and not any of the other settings, it seems reasonable to guess Kara-Tur might be the next one to be unveiled. Dark Sun makes a certain amount of logical sense given its power sources, but recent developments with Noonan don't suggest Dark Sun is high on WotC's priority list at this point in time. Ravenloft and Al-Qadim aren't popular enough to be settings "people would get excited about", nor is Spelljammer, though it at least has the virtue of being well-liked by most of the designers and hence something they might want to do in the future. Most of the people in our game are hoping for Dragonlance, and certainly there are a lot of gamers who would be excited to see a 4e sourcebook strongly centered on the War of the Lance period or its immediate aftermath, rather than focusing on the bad writing and assorted detritus that muddled the setting thereafter. But there are challenges too, many of which were faced and only partly overcome by the FR team -- for example, how to make the player characters feel important in a setting where strong NPCs have historically driven most of the action? In this regard perhaps it is a positive sign that Rich Baker is on the team, as he likely has a lot of ideas along these lines that he wasn't permitted to fully implement in the corporate-driven FR relaunch.
