Darn, no Arcane Power 2, no Divine Power 2, or Psionic Power.

According to amazon, there's a listing for a Psionic Power book scheduled for an August 2010 release.

We got the new WotC Summer 2010 Catalog, but this time I have little to report. Almost everything is on the WotC Product Page.
The only addition I can make is

The game looks really cool. It would be nice if they did some of the adventures that way. Tiles, mini's, encounter cards etc. The Giants one would have been really cool set up this way.
 




I was really hoping for a more traditional board game with a real board, non-DDM pieces and no d20 mechanic. But I can imagine I'm in the minority and I'll probably still pick it up.
 


Lords of Madness was supposed to be a summer set, no? I'd be very surprised to see them reduce the monster sets to 2/year. I think it's more likely the line is ending, sadly.

Maybe ending, maybe changing, but something definitely seems to be happening.

I don't know how ending the miniature line would help 4E's miniature combat nature, tho...
