This isn't earth-shattering news, but today I noticed a new Flash ad running on the Wizards homepage. To see it, head to wizards.com and hit refresh until it starts up. Here's what it says, along with links to the images used in the ad: Grab your pack and leap into action (image (http://www.coveworld.net/eberron/flash1.jpg)) Explore vast continents filled with danger (image (http://www.coveworld.net/eberron/flash2.jpg)) Throw open the cover and be ready ...for anything (image (http://www.coveworld.net/eberron/flash3.jpg)) Eberron Campaign Setting Pretty cool. The images are a bit different than what we've seen for the campaign setting book art, so I'm guessing they're being exclusively for ads. The first image seems to be a dark elf, the second (my favorite) looks like a shifter or human female with Eldeen-style clothing, and the third is a combination of a couple of little scenes. I like the promotional text. It's a little more action-oriented and accessible than the "pulp/noir" references in some of the older marketing material. You can see the whole text in the product description (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/eberron/864000000) now, though I first saw it used on the RPG United site, which also has a nice little Eberron page (http://www.rpgunited.com/info/eberron.html).
