[QUOTE="antiwesley, post: 8549801, member: 7031616"] For the love of all that is good and holy, NO MORE HISTORY BOOKS! Anyone and everyone who is willing to talk has been and repeatedly interviewed for mutilple books. Unless they can channel the spirits of Gary and Dave, it's a dead horse that everyone seems to want to beat to make some sweet WoTC-style cash grabs. My predictions: -6E or some iteration of it. -MTG will be rebranded as the "Dungeon and Dragons: TCG" -*WoTC will fund the Gygax Statue in Lake Geneva and reveal it. -Hasbro/WoTC will become a fully merged company, and Hasbro will only exist on paper, as WoTC reveals RPGs for popular Hasbro properties that have generally remain unRPG'd. -*Disney will purchase Hasbro/WoTc for the purposes of [S]destroying the franchise for even more money [/S] accessing the rich multimedia aspect of D&D's 'history' - In that vein, we'll see a fictionalized 'documentary' with actors playing the people involved. The cast will be diversified to hide the fact that the game was a "White Man's Invention" to candycoat the real truth. A porn parody will soon follow. (I've heard stories DIRECTLY from people who were in involved, and the the 'documentary' would be at a soft-core porn level already. ) and finally, -*The Marmoreal Tomb will have finally been published and will be completed as per the original KS. - Justin LaNutso will be launching the 10th iteration of "TSR" from behind a cell door after being convicted of fraud for the 9th time. This system will be purely based on the ability of your character to not drop the soap in a prison shower. * - these are listed as possibilities, but likely will not happen. The future is hard to predict after all. [/QUOTE]
