[QUOTE="Bran Blackbyrd, post: 1031046, member: 1710"] That's the first thing I thought too. :D It doesn't sound like my cup of tee, but I think it is ignorant to think that one could accurately gauge what the end product will be from what little info has been released so far. I would say that I'll wait until it's on the shelves before I give it a thumbs up or not, but that would be pointless. You see, I'm busy enough with a D&D campaign in my own homebrew world and two D20 Modern games in the "real" world (though all three games are on hiatus). For me to bother picking up another campaign setting it would have to be uber-kismet karmic-soulmate missing-twin perfect for me. Or have so many cool rules that I buy it and chuck the setting. In the end, if stip-mining a setting book for the rules is what you're going to do, then the flavor and quality of the setting hardly matters. Hence, I have a few FR books. Giving it a pass or fail at this juncture is just sort of foolish, unless you hate dinosaurs because they ate your one million times removed great aunt when she was just a proto-mammal. If the setting ends up being a real loser hopefully they'll pull the plug instead of continuing to support it just in case someone buys it. They could just go to the next runner-up and give them a shot. In the meantime, good luck to the person/people working on this, hopefully it will turn out great. You never know, maybe the grognards of 2028 will be griping about what a crime it is that D&D's latest owners won't continue to support Eberron for D&D 8.0. Edit: F$^&#*% ROFLMAO! That does sort of stink. What about dinosaurs and chocolate? There were Cadillacs and Dinosaurs chocolate bars. :) That was a re-make. But you're on the right track. The original is redeemed by being unbelievably campy. -- STONE? Is this some new geek way to say "ROCK!" that no one told me about? [/QUOTE]
