[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 8326128, member: 20741"] I will strike a [B][I]discordant note[/I][/B] in what has mostly been a reasonable (if not helpful thread). I don't want to see a Krynn setting beyond the bare necessity necessary to run the classic [I]War of the Lance[/I] campaign. Because that's DragonLance. The rest is just the echo of what was; trying to milk the real thing for the last of its juices, long after the ripe oranges had been squeezed almost dry. I want to see DL1-14 re-done and completely revised for 5e with new art, new maps -- and even entirely new encounters. Not converted -- but [B]REVISED. [/B]I want to see a dramatic refresh of the classic campaign for a generation that isn't familiar with the original modules or the novels. In short, nothing here for any of us to play in and be much surprised by, only to DM it for unsuspecting new gamers who come to the tale [I]tabula rasa[/I]. After all, it's been 37 years. I am already doing exactly this for the only unsuspecting group of gamers I could find: my family. In 37 years, they are the only ones I have been able to find who want to play the classic campaign [I]who have no idea what it is about[/I]. So I got to work in Photoshop and FoundryVTT during Covid -- and I am telling this story for them on our home network. Everyone has their own desktop computer. So that works for us. The classic DL campaign is an experience a new generation deserves. Serve that goal - because that's the one that actually matters. Throw everything else suggested above into the fire. We already have material for that. You are talking about supporting sequel adventures when the main tale is the one that needs to refreshed and re-told to a new generation.
