[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 7873550, member: 18182"] What we need to go along with a 5E Dragonlance . . . . Take the original novels, the "lost chronicles" novels, the original modules, and other random bits and have Weis and Hickman produce a "revised and expanded" Dragonlance Chronicles novel series. Take the entire story and put it in order, plus, they are both way better writers now then they were back in the 80s. Adapt that "revised and expanded" novel series into a multi-season TV show on HBO as a "Game of Thrones for families". Top-notch production values. Then, we get a system-agnostic "world book" that centers on the War of the Lance, but with chapters for the major story arcs that came later. This book has a high page count and brand new art that evokes the classic Elmore paintings. An alternate, stand-alone PHB for Dragonlance! This would include a DMG and even an MM section. [LIST=1] [*]Draconians as a replacement race for dragonborn, not subraces (similar design, but without trying to shoehorn the various subraces into the PHB dragonborn) [*]Tinkers and kender could be unique subraces, not mapped to existing subraces [*]The elves and dwarves already map well to the subraces in the PHB, perhaps some mechanical distinction between Qualinesti and Silvanesti? [*]Irda [*]I love the moon magic, clerical magic, and knightly orders being factions rather than subclasses. Warlocks and sorcerers are simply "renegades" (which would be a background). [*]Yeah, mass-battle rules that are PC-focused and cinematic! [*]DM guidelines on running campaigns in different eras. [*]Bestiary section that focuses on truly iconic Dragonlance creatures and NPCs. Dragons! Draconians! Save the weird monsters that came later for the DM's Guild creators. [/LIST] A three-volume slip-cased set adapting the original modules. It's been done for 2E, 3E, why not 5E? But, also a new adventure hardcover with a totally brand new story set just after the War of the Lance. And, I would like all of this to debut this fall please . . . . Joe M? Are you listening?
