[QUOTE="Old Fezziwig, post: 498945, member: 59"] [b]Fire in the Hole!!!![/b] :) Seriously, I'm going to sound not so helpful here and say that I like them both for different things — if I had more time, I'd probably try and run a campaign in Greyhawk in that it seems more wide open, wild and wooly to me. The FRCS' detail helps me now because it saves me a lot of work (although I'm not fond of the idea of having a storyline advanced by the company that publishes the setting). In response to your specific points, the FR pantheon is hit or miss IMO, at a certain point, it's just too bloody large, although I really like certain gods (Ilmater, for one). The PrCs in Magic of Faerun and the FRCS are nice, but I'd be very likely to use those in a GH campaign. And I liked the Temple of Elemental Evil. Then again, I'm a bit of a campaign world slut — the ESDs from 2e on SVgames have been a bear for me to buy and download using this dial up, but I've been doing it for a while. Not to mention the near misses I've had with Scarred Lands and Kalamar stuff — thankfully I have some self control. ;) If I could, I'd go ahead and buy them all, but as is I run with FR mostly for convenience (and the FRCS really is a great book). Best, tKL [/QUOTE]
