Is this set 12?
Also it appears to be coming out in February. I wonder what this means for the schedule for 2007. | |

Sounds interesting, but I have no initial guesses on what they'll put in this set.

| | Maybe its another Undead kind of set. Would be nice to see some competitive undead in skirmish. Also I didnt see a new starter up on Amazon, so maybt its not a starter set. So maybe we arent getting one at the beginning of each year. | |

| | The date seems wrong. We should see a new DDM release in March, not February. I think this may be a Dreamblade expansion. | |

| | Anyone notice that it comes out Feb 13th? At Gen Con last year didnt they point out that they wanted the sets to come the first of the month in March/July/Nuovember? I wonder why the change, justs eems weird after they said they were making a schedule and sticking to it. | |

Nope. Lurking Lidda said in another thread that set 12 was listed on Amazon.
Well, isn't there a Castle Ravenloft adventure coming out later this year? I'm guessing we can find clues to new minis for this set in there. | |

| As a reminder: Amazon screws up release dates on a regular basis. I am pretty darn sure that this is the next DDM expansion... but I am less than sure it will be released in February.
As for the theme: I'd think evil clerical mojo rather than just undead. I'd expect to see some evil aspects and evil clerics mixed in with the undead. | |

| The most surprising thing (to me, anyway) is that we still haven't seen Blood War boxart. I've been searching the net for it for days now to no avail. Randomhouse.ca and .com don't even list Blood War, which is weird, considering that Random House became WotC's exclusive publisher back in December.
Incidentally, I searched Amazon for set 12 earlier today but included "march 2007" in my criteria, which is why it didn't come up. | |

| Interesting!
I hope the set will have some Ravenloft minis, Strahd seems almost certain with the new adventure coming up. Probably quite a few undead, some evil clerics and aspects as well, maybe some shadows?
I hope we'll get a blood ooze or something like it, and a new common human zombie! Maybe they'll throw in a large common skeleton and/or zombie? Small skeletons would be welcome as well, and I'll take a bone golem any time. Or maybe an undead tyrant (beholder) and an Alhoon (illithidlich)!

Oh wait.. Unhallowed, not Unhollowed. Keep getting those mixed up...[:o)]
It's too far away for me to give away any hints - but it does prove that DDM is far from dead. We'll be counting the days until its release.
Wait. Was that a hint? (probably two obvious) | |

| I'm actually having trouble figuring what I'd want in a set like that.
A Mummy, uncommon or common, would be good.
A new ghoul wouldn't be bad, and I'm sure the world needs more skeleton and zombie variants.
Beyond that...I'm at a loss. Devourer, Mohrg, Bodak, Allip, Shadow/Greater Shadow...is this really enough to carry a set? | |
