[QUOTE="Stormprince, post: 505327, member: 2046"] The plans are thus: We write the Campaign Sourcebook and WotC will publish the 1st/core rulebook (wrote, past tense...it's now in editing and we're starting to solicit art and map orders), then we have a rather ambitious schedule of release products afterwards. The Campaign Setting focuses on Dragonlance as it is now, reflecting the recent changes from the War of Souls trilogy and other recent Dragonlance titles. There's also information on playing in "Krynn's past," that will allow players and DMs to play in earlier eras. Our products will zoom in on specifics: Setting Sourcebooks focusing on very specific times "During & Post War of Souls," "War of the Lance," etc. We have a trilogy of adventures that will form a complete Dragonlance Campaign, carrying characters through an epic (lower-case, not Epic Level) adventure taking them from 1st level through to 18th or so, with a storyline that will change the status quo, but unlike the original adventures, there are no-pregens... this time, it will be as if the PCs ARE the heroes of a new set of novels. I'm extremely excited about these, not only because I'll be writing them, but because the story is one that we have ironed out, sitting down with Margaret Weis, Don Perrin, Jamie Chambers, and myself, so as to make sure that it captures the feeling of a true novel. There will be advice on Creating a Cohesive Party, advice on Tests of High Sorcery for the PCs, opportunities to join the Knights of Solamnia, and focusing on areas of Krynn that have never been fully explored anywhere. We have material planned to flesh out Krynn's Pantheon, explore the Wizards of High Sorcery in depth, monsters both new and old (many of which have only ever truly appeared in novels), and simply tons of other support materials. We're going to do our best to make sure that the novels and the game truly reflect what's going on, but without making it seem as if one is completely controlling the other. Events that occur in the novels, or in the game, will have an impact that will be felt for years to come. It's truly an exciting project, and I cannot wait for the DLCS to hit the shelves, so the "party" can begin! :D - Christopher [/QUOTE]
