[QUOTE="moxcamel, post: 5447959, member: 67954"] What I'd really like to see WotC do is put out world "modules." ~64 page setting guides that rough out a fantasy setting. Not too much detail as to constrain the DM, but enough to make it easy on the DM who also has a life. Guides like this could be published quarterly, and then we'd get to see some of the more fantastic and strange settings that can't be risked when publishing a 300 page hardback. One quarter you could do a world based on ancient Rome, next quarter could be Spelljammer, and next quarter could be some kind of planar thing. Each would be a one-off (with the most popular settings getting DDI content tie-ins, *cha-ching!*), and it would finally put DMs back in the business of fleshing out worlds. Price point could be in the $10-$15 range, which would make it a heck of a lot more attractive than a $35-$40 campaign guide that you have to sink another $30 into when the player guide comes out, oh and then there's the associated monster manual... I'm guessing a line of products like this would sell very well, especially with images of scantily clad ladies on the cover. Just sayin'. :D [/QUOTE]
