Heard rumour that Wizard (or perhaps Soverign Stone) will be putting out a line of Ravenloft Campaign Books in 3.5 format. I have some of the old Ravenloft stuff and it was pretty neat. Anyone have more info on this gossip? Any ideas on other Campaign worlds that would be good to redo for 3.5? (excluding Forgotten Realms cause I'll kill someone if I have to buy those bastards again)

Well, they just redid Dragonlance - the book isn't bad, but it focuses on my least favorite age. I believe there are no plans to touch Dark Sun any time soon. Greyhawk has always been a bit of a vague world; I don't know if it really deserves it's own, updated information. I doubt anything more than a small trickle of information for that world will be released. As for Spelljammer...well...excuse me while I laugh.
HA!
That about sums up all the worlds I know of. Can't say as I actually know anything about the new Ravenloft setting though.

Well, besides campaign worlds, I'd love if they redid some of the old, classic modules. I know they did 'Return to ... the Tomb ... of ... ???' Well, I can't remember the name, dammit, but it was one of the old classics. I would probably run out and buy an updated version of 'Ruins of Undermountain' if they ever released it.
*sigh* Oh, Undermountain, how I love and loathe you. Seriously has anyone ever ventured farther than the first level? Be dammbed if my group ever came close to covering 60% of the damb place.
As for the topic at hand, I will be scouring the internet for any info on a 3.5 Ravenloft. I would be in Zombie Heaven (riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight ... :rolleyes: ) if they updated the setting.

Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil is what you're probably thinking of.
ENWorld is moving agonizingly slow right now for some reason. If you can scrounge up some patience or just manage to have better luck than I, you'll be able to see that they have quite a few remakes of classic modules.

... I think it was "Return to the Tomb of Terror" Or something like that. It was one big deathtrap dungeon ...
I just don't know ... (hmph. and I call myself a gamer?!)
As for the link, I'll check it out. Thanks, Cracker.

Return to the Tomb of Horrors, perhaps? They have that remade too - for 3.5, mind you.

Yes! That's what it was! Return to the Tomb of Horrors!
Again thanks, Cracker. (You don't mind if I call you Cracker do you?)

What about Planescape?
I mean, the Manual of the Planes was geared for people who wanted more places to put their Forgotten Realms characters, so I don't count that. I'm waiting for them to bring back the city of Sigil in its morally grey, politically unstable, demon-filled full glory.

You know...over all the time I've used this nickname, I don't think I've once been called Cracker. Gram, sure. Grammy, okay. Gramcrackered itself, rarely.
Cracker?
*shrug*
S'new one on me. Not that I care, mind you...

This would be another one of those, "Don't hold you breath," situations. It's just not well-known compared to, say, Ravenloft or Forgotten Realms.

How about Uncle Cracker?

I dunno ... "Uncle Cracker" ...
Kinda sounds like a nickname a child molester might have. That or 'Cracker Jackson' ...
And, really, that's just not keen.
Hmm .. Cracker Jackson ... Cracker Jacks, maybe?

*sigh* Sad, but true. I would think a few more people would have heard of it, since it was one of the campaign settings that got a Black Isle game, but... ehh.
