    Will there ever be new editions of the major systems?

    They really seem to be pivoting more towards Beyond as a service to customer for business purposes, rather than a rules treadmill.

    Will there ever be new editions of the major systems?

    On the contrary, I think the next iteration will be another take on 5E, but they will try to move away from edition numbers and just call it "D&D"

    We can go a step farther: while new variants do get released, Backgammon and Chess are fairly stable at this point. I thinkt he Crearice Commons release of D&D makes wild change to D&D-as-D&D sociological improbable.

    What's the best die type and why is it the d12?

    Pretty simply a matter of material culture: injection molding was only invented around WWII, and then soon people figured out they could make dice easily in any shape. People.made dice in other shapes throughout history, but cubes are thr easiest to carve. Still the easiest to store and ship...

    Eberron: Forge of the Artificer - First Impressions

    Yeah, even the most AD&D 5E Setting, in a lot of ways but Mercer was definitely using that 3E stuff when world building.

    I can only presume you haven't had scalloped potatoes prepared properly. My goodness, it's cheese mixed with potatoes! Thwt was a bad experience around a potato, however I am sure that potato would have been great if you subsequently cooked and ate jt.
