Hussar
Legend
In the "Is Greyhawk Relavent" thread, I and a few others sidebarred on the idea of a 4e Mystara. I'll admit, while I didn't really play in Mystara all that much, I loved the setting. The Voyage of the Princess Ark stories in Dragon really brought the setting to life for me.
The problem is, I don't believe a generic (in the sense of kitchen sink) setting will really work anymore. Why would I get into another kitchen sink setting when I've already got things like Forgotten Realms with it's MASSIVE amount of material. I do think that a setting needs a hook, and "kitchen sink" is already taken.
So, what would set Mystara apart? The technological side of things is already sewn up in Eberron and Mystara was never a dark or a grim setting.
I'd love to see Mystara get a 4e treatment, but, really, I'm not sure if it would ever happen.
