However...

What happened to Gnome tinkers the class, not the race?!?! The class was the coolest part of 2nd ed Dragonlance (actually 1st ed originally).

So where are they now? The gnomes get some nifty crafting abilities but no rules on craftin experiments, failures, etc.

Correct. I'm not sure if Chris has said anything about a gnome tinker class, but I'm betting you will see one to go with the gnome invention rules.

Here's to hoping for a web supplement =)
