I like 5E as a system, but I have mixed feelings about the type of books WotC publish for the system. I would love it if WotC published more of the following type of books: Setting books: We have a few that could qualify, but I would love to see more of these. Monster books: I enjoyed Volo's...

10 Years have passed on this day since Dave Arneson left us. I posted some of my thoughts here. The Co-Creator of D&D is not forgotten. Thank you Dave! :) -Havard

Dave Arneson Game Day first appeared sometime after Dave Arneson passed away in 2009. While others were more involved in its creation, it has been co-opted by the people over at the Comeback Inn and other places where fans of Blackmoor and Dave Arneson gather. Although it less ambitious than...

Mark Rein-Hagen is looking to return Dave Arneson's Blackmoor to published form. Blackmoor was arguably the first D&D Setting. Mark Rein-Hage, creator of Vampire etc, says that his company, Make-Believe Games, are doing what they can to bring back the World of Blackmoor. More...

I recently learned that Pathfinder's Golarion has a crashed space ship, as an homage to Expedition of Barrier Peak, which in turn probably was inspired by the City of the Gods from Dave Arneson's Blackmoor Campaign. In addition to those there is Mystara (linked to Blackmoor) and also the...

One of the reasons I got into 3E/D20: Dragonlance, Ravenloft, Dark Sun, Blackmoor and Greyhawk were all supported. Even classic favorites like Mystara and the Hollow World got several articles in the Paizo magazines. While WotC has been rehashing alot of old concepts, they have stayed away...

I guess Living Greyhawk is the most famous one. 4E has Living Forgotten Realms. Dave Arneson's Blackmoor had the MMRPG (modules still available). Which other settings has/had Living Campaigns? -Havard

Below are some racial writeups that I have made for Blackmoor: Hawkriders Ursai - The Bearfolk (Under construction) Kurgans Valemen -Havard

I like the idea of a teleporting race, but why do they have to look and feel almost exactly like elves? Other than the game mechanical features this race seems really unnecessary. What have I missed? -Havard

Sparked by a discussion on the new Nentir Vale forum at the Piazza, I have begun doing more research on the Nentir Vale and the rest of the assumed Points of Light "setting". Can someone recommend some good websites for information about the place? -Havard

Does anyone out there still play Scarred Lands? There is a bit of a fan revival of the setting over here, but I was wondering if there are other fans of the setting out there. It really was a setting that seemed to disappear over night? Simply another result of White Wolf's retirement from the...
