Hopefully after the weekend I'll have some highlights of my trip to Gencon 2012. Later!
News, nostalgia and nonsense concerning all things Dungeons & Dragons
especially the World of Greyhawk Setting.

Could have been worse. Could have had another Rain of Colorless Fire.
News of old material for all settings was nice (could be pdfs, could be something else - they didn't exactly say).
Mechanics of Nxet magic was discussed (not too different from what some of us may have been doing for years anyway), i.e. different systems suc as Vancian, innerspiritlike magic, etc. Different strokes for different magicfolks. The DMs can manage it.
It was fun to listen to Mearles rapid-speak his way through any talk of Next. He got faster and faster like he couldn't get the words away from his mouth fast enough. I've heard door-to-door salesmen speak slower.
There was a big rollout of FR novels and rescue plans for the endangered world of Faerun. Oh yeh, and Living Realms! Sort of. Modules are coming where FR players WILL MAKE a difference in Realmology. Meh. Could be good.
Yeah, Greyhawk dodged a bullet. It's good to be a Greyhawker.
OMG! You're staying!? :O
Hehehehehehehehe
No doubt they were afraid that Greyhawk would add so much concentrated awesomeness to the new edition that it would make the books explode.
