Wizards has been releasing some of the new Eberron material. I didn't see anyone post it so, as usual, it seems that I'll do it. :)

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

I've gone from checking the Wizards site at least once a day to checking it maybe once a month. 
Not really seeing anything of great interest there... But I do wonder how including anything and everything is a definition of unique.
That reminds me, I still need to replace my copy of the 3E ECS. |

Grin. I never visit the WOTC site, I find all my news on ENworld. :) |

So did they fix the Prestige Class screw-up? 
Yes they did.

It's a lot easier to do that for Eberron because the timeline is not being advanced. |

Looking at this preview Pdf (and the spectacular map Eberron got), all I can say is...
Suuuuuure no-one had it in for FR. 
They get a map by Michaelangelo, and we got used toilet paper.
Nothing against Eberron, mind you, I just like to see some of the quality it's receiving spread around a bit more. FR's become WotC's "ugly stepchild".  |

| It seems to me that 4e is working nice with Eberron (but not with FR). |

That is a really nice map of the world. Really nice. And heck, it can even be given to players as a reward!
If only FR had designers who cared about the setting. |
