| hey gang,
I haven't posted much about a year, do I understand correctly that all 1.0 figures will get 2.0 cards?
when it is expected to happen if so?
also, it seems like it would be a good idea to release a new version of the miniature manual that included a table of updates stats for all figures. Is this a possibility?

Yes, they have said they will all be converted eventually. I believe they posted a tentative schedule a while back, but i dion't recall it off hand. I thing it was ~ every 3-4 months.
I don't know if there will be a new Miniatures handbook. I certainly hope so.

when it is expected to happen if so? Eventually. There is a list, somewhere, of the anticipated release dates. Try Googling with (site:wizards.com) in the search bar (no parentheses).

1) The Miniature's Handbook might get a shiny new version, I have no idea.
2) The stats are released as the sets come out, with downloadable PDFs, but I don't think anything is planned for a table.

| | WotC have said that they will release all the new 2.0 stats cards and not only the all stars cards.But I doubt they do it a lot.Surely they will release until unhallowed only and stop releasing more 2.0 cards,except all stars cards.I strongly hope I,m wrong about this but I doubt it.About the handbook,I do not think they will release a new one.It is not necessary since you have all the new rules in the rulebook | |

The old DDM Handbook might be useful if you intend to stay with 3.5. It has some different monsters and prestige classes. Other than that, it's a cool collector's item for people that have to have absolutely everything related to DDM. | |

| | It's more RPG than Skirmih game. It did have mass battle rules, but they weren't that great. | |

So the Minis Handbook is not about minis? Not for me, then. Not much, no. I
t is one of the 2 sources of the Warmage base class, which my character has, so I use it every couple of weeks.
