There are no other D&D products in development that we have been told about, and these products usually get a year or two of 'hype' before being released. POR had a good two years of hype before it came out, and NWN has been on our minds for a long time as well. If things go well for Bioware with LucasArts and the Starwars license they may focus more on that kind of RPG for a bit. Its all speculation and anything can happen with the lawsuits about. Bioware and Interplay are tight lipped and will be until it is settled.

Tid bit on biowares forum about the suits.

Gamespot presents Bioware's press release on lawsuit with Interplay.

You can find information about Morrowind here. [img]smile.gif[/img] And info on Kights of the Old Republic here. I hope Ironworks makes a forum for Morrowind when it comes out.

Interplay sells the old goldbox games, you can get pretty much all of them except the dragonlance ones for ten us dollars. I'm not sure about overseas shipping you might find a reseller in the UK with it. Here is the link.
