[QUOTE="Thanael, post: 5257302, member: 22734"] Ah, I see. Living Greyhawk actually had only the LGG and the LGJ as fas as publications go. Finding the actual modules is harder but they are modules and don't provide so much insight into the GH history. The 2E and 1E products provide the most of that. The two canonfire threads I linked to above should help you identify which books are meatiest. Erik Mona's post in one of them sums it up nicely. There's a 2E boxed set called Greyhawk Wars, which itself is not that interesting -being a board game actually! - but it contains a history of the Greyhawk Wars. This document is available online in different versions. Personally I'd advise you to get the LGG if you can get it in a dead tree version for around $ 10. Then perhaps keep an eye out for the World of Greyhawk boxed set and/or the From the Ashes boxed set. The City of Greyhawk boxed set is also great but it concentrates more on a single city. The LGJ magazines are great esp if you're using 3E. If you can get them cheap on ebay go for it. They are going to rise in value. Definately check out the free WGR7 Ivid pdf. If you like it you will probably also like the other WGR books and From the Ashes by Carl Sargent. A few more links: [url=http://home.flash.net/~brenfrow/gh/gh.htm]The TSR archive[/url] has a list of all Greyhawk books from 1E and 2E. [url=http://www.greyhawkonline.com/duicarthan/dnd.html]Duicarthan's site [/url] (he's the current editor of Oerth Journal) has several interesting resources including a 3E conversion of the magic items from the 1E Greyhawk Adventures HC and lots of 3E NPC conversions. [url=http://melkot.com/]Maldin's Greyhawk site[/url] is notable for having a great Greyhawk city map and of course his Live the Multiverse and Epic Mysteries, some of which got included in canon. [url=http://ulmo.mux.net/greyhawk/wizards.html]This site[/url] has archive several GH freebies that used to be on WotC site. Among them is the Greyhawk Wars booklet. [url=http://ulmo.mux.net/greyhawk/]The main site[/url] has a list of Greyhawk relevant books which includes some of the more obscure stuff which is not on the TSR archive site and/or not labelled Greyhawk - with some comments on what's essential.
