Gen Con 2010

In questi giorni passati si è tenuto il Gen Con Indy, una delle convention più grande al mondo dedicata al gioco. La Wizards of the Coast era presente e ha dato molte notizie sull'anno che deve finire e sull'anno che deve arrivare.
Le informazioni che vi presento sono un sunto/traduzione di ciò che è scritto su Critical Hits.

A Settembre si avrà la possibilità di mettere mano sulla Red Box , la Scatola Rossa. Sì avete letto bene, il nome è lo stesso del Basic Set di AD&D. La grafica non è cambiata (è ancora quella di Larry Elmort), ma questa volta conterrà delle regole semplificate per giocare la 4th Edizione e farà d'apertura alla linea Essentials . Se siete interessati a dare uno sguardo iniziale a questo prodotto, vi rimando a questo video .
Sempre a Settembre avremo la possibilità di mettere mano al Rules Compendium , which will contain all the rules of the 4th edition, updated with the current Errata, in a format easy to use. This manual will not be an alternative to the core rulebooks. Most likely I'll buy as well.
Finally, with regard to the miniatures, we Dungeon Tiles: The Dungeon (which will also include the Tile 3D) and the set The Lord of Madness . In October

released Dungeon Master's Kit Essentials line with advice to the DM, the adventures of departure, and another token in a box "very heavy". You will see the light even Gamma World , a product that mixes the 4th Edition rules with post-nuclear setting. The WotC said that the game is to be taken lightly and is not a real setting.

November instead will be devoted only to online Essentials , with the release of Heroes of the Forgotten Kingdoms and Monster Vault , as well as the Tile Set: The City and 4 figures of the Beholder in limited release.

December will finally Wrath of Ashardalon , a board game on the line Castle Ravenloft and Farmina in Far-Go , An adventure for Gamma World.

For 2011 however, the following items are scheduled:
  • Nentir Vale Gazetteer: operating environment on the Valley Health, currently the world's core.
  • Fortune Cards: optional accessory, sold in bags, which will contain random cards that could be inserted in a game of D & D make the fighting more random. For example, one of them could give a bonus to hit the character for a meeting. Closely resemble the rewards Encounters.
  • Deluxe Dungeon Master's Screen: Graphic by Wayne Reynolds.
  • Heroes of Shadow: will contain rules for the acquisition of powers by the shadow of all the characters. Maybe it would be interesting.
  • Mordenkainen's Magical Emporium: manual magic items with a lot of emphasis on history and which will contain new rules on magic items. This catalog items in common, uncommon and rare. The difference will be that the common and uncommon can be purchased from the characters, while the few may be given only DM.
  • Shadowfelt: Gloomwrought and Beyond: manual that will describe the Shroud of Darkness.
  • Monster Vault: Threats to the Nentir Vale: descritto come il principale manuale dei mostri dell'anno.
  • Conquest of Nerath: gioco da tavola sullo stile dei giochi di guerra (Axis and Allies, Risiko, etc.).
  • Player's Handbook: Champions of the Heroic Tier: manuale che, sullo stile di Arcani Rivelati , conterrà un insieme di opzioni che i giocatori e il DM potranno usare per modificare lo stile del gioco. Forse questo prodotto sarà interessante.
  • Neverwinter Campaign Guide: e qui potremmo anche dire, ce l'hanno fatta! Non hanno potuto dare molte informazioni, but it seems to contain an entire new class, the Bladesinger.
  • Hero Builder's Handbook: other options for players.
  • Gardmore of Madness Abbey: super adventure of the year will focus on a bunch of Wonders dispersed. It will be a boxed product and will also feature a bunch of Wonders.
  • Ravenloft Game: this is not a real environment, but a game in hand.
Moreover, during the Questions & Answers, came out this other information:
  • likely there will be a new set of toys in 2011
  • likely there will be new updates for DDI
  • Assassin Essentials class will appear on DDI and not on any of the foregoing
  • DM Kit and Rules Compendium will contain an alternative method for the system of the parcels' allocation of magic items, based on randomness
  • there are plans to Dragonlance
  • plans to PDF and E-Book, but nothing to announce
  • no Dungeon Master's Guide to epic levels because, from their research, there are few groups that we play the series
  • Player's Handbook: Races has created problems in the shops because of the size [NDA. speechless] and the Manual on Human was actually deleted, but are exploring new ways to revive it
  • Atari will soon make an announcement on a video game based on D & D. That is linked to the new manual that has to come out
  • FR
  • There will in future be a manual on Feywild
  • Mike Mearls One of the tasks is to reduce the number of incorrect manual and one of his personal goals is to make that the guides are more interesting to read
Finally, it should be noted that, as regards this year, some outputs are shifted forward by one month ahead of schedule on the WotC site. It also seems that, even so to fight piracy, WotC is focusing on the output of manufactured products that contain no more than the mere manual. With regard to the Italian front, the situation is more tragic. There is no information yet on the translation of the Essentials line, and probably the 25th Edition is the everyday stresses production change WotC. In fact, let out a box in Italian is much more expensive than putting out a single book so it is much more risky in economic terms.
