In my usual search for upcoming books I came across a couple of FR RPG products coming out next year. The first is one that originally listed that it included miniatures so I assumed it was a board game or an adventure complete with minis (still no idea why this isn't happening yet). Now it seems to say it is a 96 page hardcover adventure. Halls of Undermountain, coming out April 17th. The other product looks to me like the RPG team is going all in on the Forgotten Realms setting. Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue looks like another book along the lines of Neverwinter and it comes out in August.

| Despite me applauding the decision to release more Realms-stuff, I find it sad that the logo is gone :( |

| It was just revealed that Menzoberranzan will be edition-neutral and will cover multiple eras. Looks like we just got our first 5e preview product! |

Really? Revealed where? This is very interesting though if it pans out. |

| And September brings a Castle Grimstead Dungeon Tiles set, though it may share just a name with the Shadowdale ruin. |

| I will almost certainly pick up Menzo as one of the very few 4e books I own, however I would have liked to see something that hadn't been done before. |

 I will definitely be picking this one up, then... I just wish the title was 'Cormyr'...  |

A drow city named Cormyr? Man, those dark elves really are overrunning the setting.

I agree... hopefully that will change with the official release of the new edition. |

While I support the edition-neutral nature of new FR books, I am greatly distressed by the lack of logo.
On the other hand, does this now mean that FR is synonymous with D&D, moving forward? They said they wanted to make it not just core, but THE D&D setting, so maybe this logo-less presentation has some methodology to it? |
