That's some great work there and well researched. Just to clarify... so you decide on the real-life ethnicities by matching up Oerth geographical features to Earth ones? And with the Flanaess, which you've designated as largely American, is this in geographical features only? As America didn't...

In Lord of the Rings, are humans, elves and orcs all different species? Or are they the same species and can interbreed? I know Tolkien referred to all of them as different "races" rather than "species".

Thanks for drawing my attention to this. It looks pretty cool and I might be able to get some ideas from it. I’m definitely going for a more end-of-the-world vibe, though. Another book I was looking at was Cthulhu Apocalypse by Pelgrane Press. I know it’s 1930s Earth but it might have some...

This is my pick, too. For me it covers off all the classics.

Thanks, I'll check it out. I did a bit of googling and it looks like there's 10 books in the series spanning from 1982 to 2022.

Wonder why they didn't go 1st print for the Tomb of Horrors

Any news on the rest of the Castle Zagyg lineup? Are they updating the whole line (including previously published volumes) to the new Reforged ruleset?

I guess if he hasn't done anything for 5E it's been at least 10 years. I wonder if they'll invite him back to do D&D books again.

Oh, I see. I'll take another look at it. What are the post-apocalyptic features?

I couldn't see a connection when I glanced over the wiki about this setting. It is an island divided up between the Knorr barbarians and Charonti necromancers. Can you please tell me a little more about the setting and how it would be suitable?

I've got some Scarred Lands 3E books. The setting is too normal, I think. It had a bit of a shake up 150 or so years ago but now goes about its business almost as a normal fantasy setting.

Oh, good. I wasn't sure how baked in it was. I would just want those ancestries to face Decay like any other creature on the world.

I did consider Dark Sun but a blistering hot desert world didn't seem Tharizdunny to me somehow. Maybe the EEE would work, though, as that entity is tied to Elemental Evil and Athas has a strong tie to the four elements. EEE has always been a front for Tharizdun to hide behind, though. I somehow...

At a glance I don't see the connection. Isn't it a normal fantasy setting? I notice Tharizdun is one of the deities, though...

The EEE is most congealed and sticky.

OK, I'll check this one out again.

I don't mind the magic and decay relationship in Broken Weave but the four races being tied to the elements (Dwarves are linked to fire, Elves to earth, Halflings to water, and Humans to wind) somehow seems a bit goofy for me.

I like them better than the US version. And some art pieces have been especially made for this set. When is the last time Wayne Reynold's art featured in a D&D book?

I missed out on these and now they're being flogged on ebay for stupid prices...
