[7][8] Shannon Appelcline commented that "the non-AD&D game was not to everyone's taste, but it was extensively supported from 1996–2000, with a timeline that pushed considerably into Krynn's future".

The Council would continue to be important to Sovereign following the publication of the Dragonlance Campaign Setting, with a few members contributing increasingly large amounts to later releases".
