I didn't mean to sound *too* cynical, for I really look forward for all what has been announced!
*but*, and this may have been discussed to death at the digest or elsewhere, I'd rather prefer to get announcements with actual release dates when the publisher can keep his promises. otherwise I'm starting to get disappointed and there have been a lot of those promises during the last years. [dates/bindings/maps/editing/etc] so, while I agree that there no point in senseless ranting, I think that scepticism is comprehensible and justified by the past. It would be more satisfying IMO to announce one book and release two, than the other way round [and here my english leaves me alone-hope you still get it]

I wasn't thinking of WoTC but of Privateer Press or Green Ronin or the new Talislanta.... But they are doing scenarios, so maybe it's not valid to compare. just had a glance at the back of the fantastic "King Of Spring" for the gorgeous Agone-RPG and it's 13.95$ for 64 pages, so this may not be as high as I initially thought...
Trust me, Greg is not getting rich
