stanles]the ultimate result of this process is apparently going to be some 3E conversions of Mystaran monsters.

I bet it's the Phanaton from the IoD. There were people who were clamoring for them after Dungeon #114's release.

--Ray.

In any case, whatever it/they might be that show up, I really hope it is more than just stat blocks. I'd really like to see something that I can make more creative use of, rather than just something I could have whipped together myself. That's what's going to determine whether I get the issue or not.

Good news/bad news.

So Dragon is going to have something Mystara related in issue #339. It's going to be monsters. I can neither confirm nor deny the presence of phanatons. The monster article will have 12 monsters, IIRC. I think 3 are from Mystara and the other 9 are from Ravenloft and Greyhawk. All of the monsters have the same treatment in terms of connection to a campaign. Which is to say, not much.

I have to toe the party line, of course, but I'll admit that I'm disappointed by the amount of coverage Mystara is getting. Other settings are getting more, but a lot of settings are getting much less.

So... yay, Mystara! But also... d'oh, three monsters!

It just goes to show that my ability to get Mystara included in the magazine is somewhat limited.

That's too bad, though I'll certainly give it a look through in any case. Is the monster article the entirety of the Campaign Classics theme, or is there going to be more Classics goodness in other articles in the issue? (Not Mystara, obviously, but perhaps for some other OOP worlds).

We appreciate the effort, in any case. We'll just have to work that much harder to make sure that Mystara gets some further development somewhere. (Maybe try and sneak a Mystara adventure into Dragon or something. )

MrFilthyIke]Being that it's OOP, I'll take what I can get, and thank you for at least trying to somewhat support what won't be fully supported. :D

or, looking at it another way, being that it's been OOP for so long - and given that the community is still quite active after so long - then there would appear to be a market for more tha wrote:
