Does the Player's Guide have enough for a DM to Jump start a campaign? COuld you run a campaign on only that book?

I see what you mean about the Greyhawk folio. I never had it, but I saw it later on and agree it's just fine for providing a usable CS.ColonelHardisson said:Absolutely. The thing is, it's more akin to the folio edition of Greyhawk than it is to later boxed sets of campaign setting, which are now the norm. The original Greyhawk folio contained maps and a book that was much shorter (32 pages) than the Players Guide we're discussing here. Go here to see what I mean:

People used that folio to run Greyhawk campaigns for years. Some claim to still do so. If you prefer more comprehensively-detailed campaign settings, then I'd say wait for the boxed set.

What information does the Player's Guide have that will NOT be in the upcoming boxed set?
