The funny thing about all the regions of the Flanaess is that they all seem the *same*. In other words, no deep cultural distinctions have ever been made in published material (with the exception of the Western Bakluni lands which are clearly "Arabian"). Now, I'm not having a go at Greyhawk for...

Thanks folks for your help! :)

I've played a Greyhawk campaign for 15 years now and never ever bought Dungeon magazine. I've either created my own stuff or used published material from sourcebooks. Until now . . . I've noticed Dungeon magazine is starting to look really attractive to the Greyhawker. There is lots of...

Thanks. I'm still going by the 3.0 rules but this helps out. :)

One of my players will be playing a Ranger in an upcoming campaign and this got me thinking . . . What would be the *best* selection of Favoured Enemies? You see, if a Ranger chooses, say, Orc as his Favoured Enemy at 1st Level then, sure, this will serve him well in the lower levels as...

Gads! At 38 the poor thing should still be in his dipers! :p

Was wondering if anyone knew the lifespan of a half-dragon? Or does it depend on what the other half is (ie. whether the other half is elf, human, umber hulk or whatever)? Or, does the template "add" a certain amount of years to the base creature's longevity? Thanks. P.S. Also curious to know...

OK, maybe a bad example . . . But what about the son of Porthios and Alhana Starbreze. Both of them are pure elven and their son (Silvannoshi?) seemed to spring up from bub to adult in no time. Can any Dragonlance gurus tell me *exactly* how many years passed since his birth to his ruling of...

It's out in Australia so it's gotta be out in the US!

Yes, just noticed that thread. Many apologies folks. :o

I'm not sure -- and I'm too lazy to consult the War of Souls novels -- but I seem to remember when reading those novels that Githas (and maybe a few other elves) grew up very quickly since the last Age. They sprung from babe to adult almost as quickly as a human. Am I off my tree? Is the elven...

This book *looks* attractive but I'm hesitant to buy (5 out of 10 D&D books turn out to be duds). Is it good? Is it as good as the Draconomicon? Is it Brucy Boy at his best? Thanks.

Is it good? Do you need the RL Campaign Setting book to use it? Will there be supplements released for it? Thanks.

Naw, I run Greyhawk and I'm tickled pink that they put a tiny map of the globe down in the bottom left corner. Gives a DM something to dream about . . . ;)

I'm talking about *product* history. GH has a long line of products beginning from OD&D to 1E to 2E to 3E. ;)

Yes, but how do the elves make it? Do the hammer and smelt the steel like a bunch of sweaty dwarfs in a stuffy forge (doesn't seem very "elf-like")? Or, do they fashion it in some "magical" way? Is there an official answer on this? What's more, do the elves mine the steel (or is it mithral?)...

No, Greyhawks not appropriate because: 1) I'm running it and would nit-pick at him if he ran it; and 2) Greyhawk has a vast history . . . he'll end up wanting to track down all of it's esoteric lore (like me!). He doesn't want to do the latter, he wants something with no "strings attached".

Can't the Kenzer folk just do a simple outline of the globe's continents. Like the tiny globe map discretely in the corner of the LGG and D&D Gazetteer maps? What percentage of crunch is in the Kalamar core setting book? (Why aren't there more zero-crunch setting books like the LGG?) Thanks...

That doesn't sound good. I'm not suprised, though. Crunch is WotC's lifeline. Why not turn it up to the max! Are Eberron's adventures easy for a novice DM to use?

The FRCS is a very *dense* tome by the looks of it. Perhaps it has a little *too* much infomation in one hit.
