[QUOTE="ccs, post: 7803290, member: 6803664"] 5 years of me being in charge huh? Am I in charge of WoTC? Or WotC making D&D? And can I be ousted.... 1st things 1st, I'm going to give myself a healthy raise & a nice exist package. :) [I]Some[/I] things that I'll do after that for the rest of you: 1) Collect & republish all the monsters whose stats have only appeared in the modules as a MM2 volume. Flesh it out as needed for a healthy page count. Revisit this about 2-3 years later for MM3. 2) Hey, you know that other great game we publish? MTG? Guess what? It's getting a dedicated pure D&D block! It's going to be fully legal in all the formats. I toy with the idea of making it [I]Eternal [SIZE=1]{note: I do not know if this is already a MTG term. If it is then I'll find a new name}[/SIZE] [/I]- meaning that while the set itself might go out of print, the cards will remain in all the formats (past/present/& whatever we cook up in the future) forever. 3) We have an extensive back catalog of RPGs & board games. Guess what? Other than stuff for the current edition of D&D, all MTG cards, & any stuff we don't have the rights to any longer (Ex; The Marvel superhero game I'd assume), it's [B]all[/B] going up as cheap PDFs with Print on demand options. You want your favorite issue of Dragon Magazine? Here you go. You want the third supplement for Gamma World 3rd ed? How about the complete 4e collection? Every D&D Companion set module? How about those great (or not so great) Avalon Hill board games? [SIZE=1](for games that had unique plastic components 3d files will be included) [/SIZE]You want it? Here it is. Of course we reserve the rights to reprint any of this stuff, but in the meantime if we can make another $ off of it.... 4) D&D turns 50! in 2024. You're getting 6e & a year long celebration! Al kinds of great stuff. But don't panic. 6E will be backwards compatible with 5e. But it'll be cleaned up, improved upon, & will generally encourage, not force, you to upgrade. This might be when you see the D&D MTG set I mentioned. Though [I]I've[/I] been wanting & waiting for that to happen for so many years I might get it out before then.... 5) Speaking of Magic.... Can you believe it turns 30 in 2023? I've got something in mind for them as well. [/QUOTE]
