Would you like to see a Marienburg supplement from FFG? If so, how would you like it presented?

For business and gaming purposes I think it would more need to be an Adventure Box with a Marienburg adventure and incidental to that information on it (rather than a Marienburg box with an adventure tacked on). Sort of Edge of Night with Marienburg instead of Ubersreik (and a better thought out adventure).

A High Elf/Wood Elf box needs to come out first, so the high elf presence can be explained without giving only partial rules/treatment of them.

Alternatively, rather than Adventure Box, an Arms, Equipment, Mounts, Retainers and Property box - which then deals with trade and Marienburg as the greatest trading hub gets attention.

And yes I would like to see it - mostly because I want it all, everything, now, now now! Well actually, at whatever pace makes it good quality and well-edited pleas.

With the 1st edition Warhammer 160pg book over Marienburg, I do not think this is an urgent thing to publish.

Said that, it would be nice the combination of Marienburg / High Elf in a supplement box.

I agree on this, an adventure with information on Marienburg is the best way to go. Maybe something following Witch's Song. That is probably the most interesting way to explore a city/province overall.

I can't see it happening. Marienburg is too big to fit in even a couple of FFG's boxes and that is without any adventures. Also it was well covered in both the 1st and 2nd editions. They would be far better off covering a town that hasn't been covered before like Carroburg, which is on the Reik between Altdorf and Marienburg.

FFG naturally follow the (What I think) is the american way of doing things, which is create the adventure and then publish just enough on the settlement to aid in running the adventure. They have published several interesting bits in Edge of Night and Lure of Power, on Ubersreik, which would make for a very interesting campaign setting, but have then left it there dangling. I don't think it is in FFG's commercial plans or interests to give us an intersting location that could be repeatedly used as part of a campaign, it might stop people buying further publications. Think of the ending to Gathering Storm to see what I mean. That is also why the adventures are all so short as well, I suspect.

Consequently Marienburg is a non starter I would say, as a supplement on its own, much like Altdorf . If you are hoping for a new version of Warhammer City from the 1st edition, for Marienburg or anywhere else, I suspect you are most likely going to have to look elsewhere.

Actually there is one way that FFG could do it, which would keep everybody happy and fit in with their commercial parameters.

Each district or most of them could be done as its own box. Each would have an adventure set around that district, with the supplement rounded out by useful information on that district. The final one could be Goudberg, which could be an HEROIC level long adventure with conflict between the great merchant houses etc.

This way FFG gets to maintain its published structure, but Marienburg gets covered properly in a long campaign structure. Simples!

Nope, there are better things for them to do in WHF than such a supplement!
