Looks like it's close now, with a new forum category.

Indeed, seems very exciting. ;)

Someone will need to give an explanation about it. ;)

Curious about the name chosen: Ruins of Symbaroum seems to put an emphasis in the exploration of those ruins, thus highlighting the "dungeoneer" aspect of the Symbaroum setting.
We'll see if there are new mechanics added to the 5e that are significant (Corruption, and Corruption by magic seem very likely).

I think Ruins of Symbar is the name planned for the Starter Set as well.

Personally I feel exploring ruins is pretty far down the list of Symbaroum's appeals.

Agreed. Battling monsters chamber after chamber isn't interesting to me. Ruins or dungeons that show a story piece by piece, more or less like that of Tomb of Dying Dreams, is the kind of dungeoneering I like best.
But Symbaroum feels much more intense outside of the ruins than inside of them.

One might take at as being a bit more metaphorical than literal... after all Symbaroum casts a long shadow in the minds of most everyone who lives in and around Davokar.

The link was sent out today but at least in my case, it pointed at the wrong document. I sent an email to their support so I bet it will be quickly fixed.

You have received the correct one now, right Krister?

Yes I have, thank you! :-) The second link did the trick.
