A bunch of upcoming stuff for D&D 4E

Dark Sun for 4E! I have many fond memories of playing that in 2E. You made up four characters ahead of time, so when you died you could step in quickly. [Link]

On Friday at GenCon, we attended the 4e Extravaganza, which was where the new setting was announced (which I’m sure everyone has heard by now is Dark Sun).
However, there were a number of other products showcased, some new, some already known, and a few big surprises. I used Twitter to report the announcements as they came, but I thought I’d post the pictures that Bartoneus took alongside the updates (cleaned up for readability).
I will add the caveat that we didn’t cover everything, especially the announcements about the novels at the beginning. There were video cameras set up at the back, so if you want to see the presentation in full, you probably will be able to later. Here’s the easily skimmable version for the stuff I found most interesting.
