Jul 05, 2009 13:11:19 From what they have said there are no plans to run a second living campaign. but that is more a question of division of limited resources than anything else.

I'd expect to see lots of the one-shot events like delves and game days to be set in Eberron or other worlds.

Jul 05, 2009 13:13:18 I assume you mean support with a Living or D&D style campaign. So far, WotC has decided to limit its support in big campaigns to LFR. There may be "mini-campaigns" like was done with Star Wars...a simple series of adventures. WotC could change its decision, of course, but because of their belief it is better to emphasize the core D&D product, providing different setting-based campaigns, all of which they cram all things D&D into, would be counter-productive. YMMV.

I have doubts that Hasbro thinks the campaign settings are major money makers.

The new Delve format could have an Eberron theme... also as each new setting is released they could add it to the rotation as the next quarterly series.
Then they could release the adventures later as a print product with fancy maps, thus adding support for the settings without too much additional resources... RPGA play tested adventures...

There are no plans at this time for an Eberron Campaign (be it Living or other).

That doesn't mean, however, we can't keep requesting such. I've already let Chris Tulach (RPGA Content Manager) know that his lack of plans won't stop me from suggesting it hopefully every so often.

Besides posting here in the forums, I'd suggest submitting the suggestion to Customer Service (http://www.wizards.com/customerservice) so that it can be officially recorded.

Jul 07, 2009 17:04:34 Of course, there's no reason one of the modules can't go to Eberron. Once you hit paragon tier, there should be some planar travelling going on. Unless there are specifically rules against it, then this is a possibility.

Even then, if none of the regional mods will do it ... you can always MYRE it. Just remember to bring the group back to Toril once you're done.

Don't get it confused. I'm EASY, but I'm not CHEAP. Two different keywords. ;)

Sigil, and with it Planescape, are folded into the CORE now as well, which opens up myriad possibilities as well.

But, speaking for myself at least, a visit still isn't the same by FAR as a campaign in Eberron.

Jul 10, 2009 3:32:56 Thanks everyone for your answers. It's disapointing to read that Eberron won't be supported ... yet. Eventhough it makes sense commercially speaking not to split your energy in multiple campaigns, my personnal tastes are more towards Eberron.

I will take the advice of contacting cust service, eventhough I don't think that it would change anything. But that's the least I should do, if I want to support Eberron.

My initial misread of your post made me wonder if anybody'd adapted the LFR adventures to Eberron for their home group.

I can see an entire underground, unsanctioned Living campaign of gamers playing Eberron-adapted LFR mods...

What is a MYRE?

What is a MYRE?

My Realms adventures. LFR has, to date, released two "write your own" adventures for LFR -- one for levels 1-4, one for 4-7. They contain some plot hooks (which you don't have to use), but, essentially, you can write whatever story you want (though you're not allowed to distribute your MYRE adventures to other DMs).
