I see we have a new mysterious forum background. Is it Dragon Slayer? That's the only mysterious entry on the "What's Coming" list.

EDIT: On further reflection, the question mark reminds me of a "wild west" type font...

Hmmm... Lets see Dragonslayer is a game Aid and has Tracy Hickman attached to it. That means it's text heavy possibly the restart of WWG adventures.

I do recall Tracy Hickman saying he was working on a campaign setting on the Fear the Boot podcast. Hmmmmm....

Yes but if you listen closely it sounded like that was for another (unnamed) company. However that does seem like another possibility...

So, the guesses so far are DragonSlayer and Deadfall?

Dragonslayer - I think I know, in general, what the image is of. Just not of where. The big question mark is a nice touch.

The Auld Grump

First one to guess correctly will receive a free copy of whatchamacallit!

How do you do to see the background...it happens to me with all the sets...it depends on the quick that the page load and sometimes I'm able to see it and sometimes ... like now...I only see the change for the banner in the upper side...but don't see the mail body ¿¿??

It's red... it seems like a teather courtine... a Circus maybe ?

Hm... I think I'll take something of a stab at this. First off, let's look at the clues we have... We have a Game Aid (Standees, Dice Towers, Adventures, Encounters, and something called WWG Forge... Hm...) made by Tracy Hickman and Denny Unger (which would probably rule out Standees or Dice Towers) that Denny is obviously quite excited about.
For the image, we have what looks like a rippling image that is horizontally symmetrical. Red top and bottom, gold line in the center, and what looks like could be a purple shield in the middle. My guess is that this represents a flag.
Since we have an unpopulated section of the WWG Game Aids store titled WWG Forge, which is described as coming soon, and what looks like a flag associated with a product that Tracy Hickman is working on. Given that he primarily writes novels and campaign settings, I'm going to guess:
This will be the first product released in the WWG Forge section of the Game Aids section, which will be a book/book-like PDF focusing on building a (system independent) campaign setting and bringing all elements to bear on making it visually and conceptually appealing.

Bayushi - You should be able to right click on the background and select View Background Image to see the whole thing.
Magius out.

I am thinking Dragonlance something or other.

A few guesses:
- A book specifically written for WWG related content
- A connection of terrain and Hickman's line of "web like the Dicken's" releases.
- Adventure(s)

My guess a "print and play board game" type thing.

A full game, with rules standies etc.

I seriously doubt that. I don't believe Hickman has the rights to that. That is a WotC property, so this would be a much bigger deal then just WWG and Tracy Hickman.


Now this could be a game/model set to go along with Tracy's current subscription fiction release.... Hmmmm.

Note: looking again that symbol looks a LOT like the symbol for Tracy's Bronze Canticles. Not exactly but a lot like it.

That is what I meant. I was looking at his website and thought it seemed to coincide with the subscription releases, but also thought they were Dragonlance. That is what I get for not reading it completely.

Hmm.. Background looks like an eye to me, just heavily blurred. A draong's eye, perhaps? Perhaps it's a cardboard dragon, kinda like the ice demon from LHotDK plus terrain/adventure, something like that?

Mayhem Hospital So want it to be Mayhem Hospital.

You're all getting colder But it's fun reading your creative ideas regarding what it could potentially be.

Dust... Steam Punk... WW2...

Titan?

From the bright colors and such, I'm guessing its TLX Carnival of Freaks/Zombieland. With these guys anything is possible.

hazy thing in the background looks like a Zerg Scourge to me, but maybe that's just wishful thinking...

Hmmm.... Zergs in the Wild West...
...Humanity would have to improvise all sorts of new weaponry based upon existing tech...
...Steamcraft?

I think it very unlikely it is anything major-brand related. Tracy has been involved in D&D, Dragonlance, and Starcraft, among a bunch of other games whose rights are held by other companies.

I predict it is either something of his own creation or something entirely new created in conjunction with WWG.

If it is his, I think _Dragonships_ has a nice ring to it for a line of adventures (with appropriate models, of course) and standees, so that is my guess.

Meh, I'm aiming high. Imagine a Starcraft board or minis game by WWG. I'd build it twice.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see it, I just don't think it is going to happen. Maybe a Starcraft expansion for Wormhole? Or a Wormhole RPG/wargame system that incorporates the original rules for space combat then lets you deploy strike teams for ground combat?

I'd love any and all of those, but I don't think the color scheme fits...

Still - Titan?

AT43 Red Block fits. Hence Dust, and of course WW2.

Titan is just me hoping to get lucky and win a special award for being so smart.

Titan's out, and nothing has changed lol. I have no idea and my knowledge of alot of different games is miniscule by comparison to some here, but in the few times I've had it up on my screen long eneogh to focus on it it looks like a helmet to me lol

A Las Vegas wedding?
A Mexican divorce?
A solid gold Kama Sutra coffee pot?
Or a baby's arm holding an apple?

Seriously though...
I see a kind of stylized skull, maybe some Space Pirates for Wormhole?

Got a reload the page another 15 dozen times or so but I'm starting to have a seizure..so I'll go with ...Hellworks product or some type of horror item.

Maybe trying to rival Google with annoying cwrap on the web page?

Don't say such things; you make my heart all fluttery.
