They have one year to sell out their old stock of items, the rest (like their old world of darkness books) will be destroyed after that. By the time Wizards gets another verson of the setting out the books would be rare as hen's teeth on store shelves and disappear soon after that.alhoon wrote:Why not? The Core has been already explained. Even if they start publishing again in 3 years, the Core is already detailed. While S&S will stop republishing the Gazs the bookstores & warehouses already have enough to sell. Also most of the people that would care about the Core, have the Gazs already.Tobias Blackburn wrote: They can't run the system if they don't explain the major land mass.
It's very hard to sell a setting when you never discuss any of the places that you can adventure in indepth.
So they won't need to republish anything for 5-6 years IMO.
And there are a large number of people who might be introduced to Ravenloft through WotC and their better advertizing. They would have only the bare bones of material about the Core.
You can't be serious to say that so few people care about the Core. It would be like publishing Planescape and not fleshing out Sigil, the heavens, hells or major planes. It's where most of the adventuring goes on.
I don't think they'll bring it out again for at least 5-6 years, period.
