Would've prevented a lot of these recent headaches... Anyone else still think WotC should have just marketed D&D 4E as the new miniatures game instead of replacing 3.5?

We're very excited about the future of DDM. It should be noted that the artwork above was created by Justin Bass of Indiana. Also, the current team of freelance designers employed by WotC to update all sets of D&D Miniatures to the revised (2.0) rules will be continuing the work. The Guild hopes to offer the same/similar compensation to these designers. Finally, the fact that WotC will continue to produce miniatures makes this a bit different from other fan/community projects, and combined with the participation of the freelancers, makes for a more stable and sustainable effort.

That was unexpected. I think it was a smart move on Wizard's part, though. I don't play DDM but I hope for their success - that these guys will be striving to meet professional quality on purely volunteer work is a pity. I'm sure most of us have seen how incredibly excited and talented freeware or gaming mod teams can have a steady project one day and an abandoned one the next. Huh. That was unexpected.
