[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 5427156, member: 177"] Well, the OP did ask about the personal reprecussions, and specfically not about the business end of things. I would expect this to be unlikely. Keeping an item in print costs money, and requires a certain level of sales to maintain. I would not expect a static D&D of that sort to continue to sell well enough to keep in print. D&D is not all that WotC does. D&D does not seem to even be WotC's best-selling line. Disbanding WotC would be killing a lot more than just D&D. So, I'd count this as unlikely, especially given Hasbro's historical reticence to sell off IP. Possible, as long as the subscriptions were enough to cover operating and maintenance costs for the service. If you aren't keeping the D&D game alive, then keeping the magazines alive would be a wombat (waste of money, brains, and time). [/QUOTE]
