Yes, I've got it and I've run it.

We don't know, but I hope so.

I love AD&D, but that is such an incredulity stupid rule. Even my 12 years old self in 1986 realized that immediately and discarded it at once.

Another factor might be that they started selling the bundles on DDB. Without the alt-covers, stores are penalized even more. At least, they keep this exclusive that can drive (I believe) quite a bit of sales.

I also remember something about this, but I wonder if the statement was about doing a limited deluxe slip case, like they did for the 2014 core three some years ago.

How dare you attack my fond memories??! Hmmm, actually, I've tried re-watching it recently, but I didn't finish it...

Spot on. You're 100% correct.

Lately, I've mostly preferred the alternate covers, but in this case I'm not sure. I think I like the standard better, at least as a first impression.

Yes, people keep talking about "generic fantasy", but - for me - what is interesting in a setting is not whether it has blue dwarves and flying purple elves, but the specifics of it, such as the nations, the cities, the factions, etc. etc. And I find the specifics of Greyhawk very interesting...

Originally, WotC said that pre-ordering was the only way to get the adventure. In March, they posted the tweet above and they announced the change.

Yes, they announced this during Garycon

I've not used them often as a DM, but they featured strongly in the longest-running AD&D campaign that I've ran. In an AD&D PBEM in which I've been playing since 2007, there's one character that is psionic and has some quite powerful abilities.

An interesting perspective. Personally, I consider the whole of the rules fair game for hacking, but I can see the player-facing material being considered differently.

I've voted 576 as well. All my GH campaigns have started in that year. I've always lifted tons of stuff from later materials, but never really adopted the official timeline.

If they are considered optional, it makes sense to put them in the DMG, but I don't feel it makes a huge difference. The important news, IMO, is that their presence is confirmed.

Thanks. So, I think it's fair to assume that it's not coming out very soon. Thus, it would make even more sense for WotC to keep supporting 3P VTTs. All of this apart from the fact that I think that they will keep supporting them extensively even after they release the VTT.

The article says that bastions will be included as player bases.

But what about hook fauchards? Do I get hook fauchards?

I have no specific insight on what WotC is doing, but I remember that I started playing when I was 12 and all the people I gamed with were about the same age. No one older introduced us and we certainly didn't feel that we were too young!

Casting a wide net for customers makes sense, IMHO. Also, I haven't kept up with the development of the new VTT, but I'm assuming the release is not imminent at all, am I wrong?
