[QUOTE="Wofano Wotanto, post: 9295036, member: 7044704"] Going OT a bit, what I'd love to see from the TSR days are unrealized concepts that inexplicably didn't happen. Where's the D&D campaign setting based on the world of Minaria from the Divine Right wargame? They may have lost/sold the rights, but if not they already printed a short book's worth of fluffy setting articles in early Dragon, and bundling all that with some modern RPG crunch would make it a relatively simple project. Dragon Dice was sold off (I think) but licensing the setting for a D&D campaign would probably be pretty easy for WotC. There's multiple novels' worth of background development already done, and modifying modern D&D to fit the game's unique take on magical power interactions would give it a unique flavor. Loads of oddball new species and monsters, too. Sadly, I don't think a D&D Wormy book will ever be forthcoming given the creator's death, but it would certainly have been interesting to see. Just the artwork alone would have been worth the purchase price. Or how about a Star Frontiers- or Alternity-based (whichever you bring back) setting for Antares-9 from the Revolt On Antares microgame? That had plenty of flavor for something so tiny. There's already a rules-light RPG floating around on the purple site, but imagine what it could do with WotC's name behind it. [/QUOTE]
