[QUOTE="Ampolitor, post: 2406299, member: 11758"] [b]Great Hornytoads![/b] I agree with having a friend read over your stuff, It's a good point however. I'd love to make money off the setting but I have real expectations, game worlds are not doing well. There are so many out there, new players like the fantastic mix of sci-fi and D&D and some of the older players flock to the "safe" worlds like FR and Greyhawk. I know that one good way to advertise is to send out a few promo copies to dedicated and "trusted" gamers who can review it, send feedback and help you by word of mouth. It will be formated for D&D 3.5 so it has a lot of competition. I just always hated seeing a really cool world then finding out it had crazy stuff in it like robots and steam powered knights. I mean they are cool ideas and all, but they're just not for me. Thats not what I envisioned D&D as. I guess I always pictured it more like LOTR. As for supplements I am a firm believer in supporting what you put out there. I have a bunch lined up for them. Believe it or not my favorite setting has always been the Birthright campaign setting.
