Eberron on Wizards' site
Is it just me or have they done nothing with Eberron since the 4e announcement? Worrisome and irritating, as I don't do much of anything in Forgotten Realms anymore...

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
I hope Eberron is the main setting for 4.0.
There is a bloody good reason why Forgotten Realms is forgotten.Own it, pwn it, nuke it, sheep it, eat it, quick re -right it, Joe it, turn it, turnip, pimp it, gimp it, dot it, rock it, spec re - spec it...

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
There isnt much on the wizards site about it, however if you check the forum posts by the designers and play testers, thats where the info about ebberon is.
Ebberon will go 4e, even if gnomes are taken out of core they will still retain thier position (house and dragonmark). Basically they are trying not to change what makes ebberon ebberon.

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
Because its so full of epic level characters that you can't throw a rock without hitting at least one and possibly start a war that will consume the entirity of the multiverse?
Because evil spellcasters who don't worship Shar make no sense in Forgotton Realms, as the goddess with complete and total control of all magic is good?Last edited by Kyeudo; 2007-09-19 at 03:04 PM.

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
I belive it was stated there won't be any "main setting" for 4ed, Eberron, FR or otherwise. Though on the other hand, fluff-heavy articles seem to contradict it.

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
Forgotton Realms Airships are like propellor planes. A step in the right direction, but uneconomical. Their held up by permanencied levitation spells and sail like an ordinary ship.
Eberron Airships are like jets. Eberron airships fly circles around Forgotten Realms airships, light them on fire, and blow them away.
(Is it obvious I don't like FR?)

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
{emphasis mine}
DO WHAT?!? I've not been on the Wizards' boards since before the 4e announcement (work doesn't let me access 'em and frankly, I got tired of the elitists over there). Please tell me they're not removing gnomes from core!?! They are my favorite race (just a hair in front of goblins--YOU HEARD ME!). How can they possibly remove gnomes from core and have them retain their status within Eberron, or do they become an Eberron race (like changelings, kalashtar, shifters and warforged)? I love Eb and this'd pretty much finish off the other settings for me...
To clarify: There's been no new articles or website updates to Eberron at Wizards' website for over a month, as far as I've been able to discover.Last edited by GimliFett; 2007-09-19 at 03:15 PM.

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
Preety much, though I fail to see what airships have to do with this. It's not FR's fault it doesn't have elemental binding feats. There are numerous things to pick on in FR, airships aren't one of them.

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
Personally I hate Gnomes. They're just so..annoying. Hopefully Goliaths will be the new core race because Goliaths kick absolute arse. Lucky for you though they might remove half orcs instead .
I'm gonna e-mail WoTC and demand they use Eberron since it's a work of art and uses advanced technology without making it to futuristic.Last edited by PlatinumJester; 2007-09-19 at 03:19 PM.

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
Uh, PlatinumJester added that FR doesn't have airships, though I'm a little confused about his feelings on it considering the small mad with which he ended the post.
Yeppers. FR has continued to get a few.
I just had a thought: Maybe they're holding the Eberron stuff until they open the Insider stuff more (ie, start charging).
I'll keep my fingers crossed on gnomes not getting dumped. I think gnomes have a place in d&d, OVER halflings (except Eb's halfers; I like their dinosaurs). I feel like halfers are the annoying ones, especially since they've become so kender-like in 3.0 and 3.5.Last edited by GimliFett; 2007-09-19 at 03:21 PM.

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
They do Halruan Skyships CL 15 Fly and Suspension but they cost 400,000 GP market and you seeing them flying overhead in the sky isn't a common occurence and taking a passage even rarer as only a few wealthy governments have commissioned any page 56 Shining South.

Maybe they'll introduce better rules for crafting constructs!

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
Oh, sure you can, in anything but FR. I used to love FR, but it's become so bloated, I just don't feel like playing in it anymore.
As far as artificers go, I was unaware they were going back to the crappy "no rules on crafting magic items" thing. Ugh. That was one of the things that really sold me on 3rd Ed. And I love artificers, so... I may end up sticking with 3.5 because I keep hearing more things that I just don't care for coming with 4e.
OzyVolt: Those are good. FR does indeed have airships, but they don't really compare to the skyships of Eberron. Additionally, in a world totally criss-crossed with portals (FR), they don't seem as cool.Last edited by GimliFett; 2007-09-19 at 03:57 PM.

Re: Eberron on Wizards' site
FR is just bland and boring compared to Eberron. The same happened to Greyhawk except on a lesser a scale.
However this argument is pointless since we all know that Manifest from Ghostwalk is the best capaign setting *cough, cough*.Own it, pwn it, nuke it, sheep it, eat it, quick re -right it, Joe it, turn it, turnip, pimp it, gimp it, dot it, rock it, spec re - spec it...
