    Dragonlance Campaign Setting: Missed Opportunity?

    ok, dragonlance subscribes to the tolkien theory of the "Castle on the Hill", where the castle is there, but is left fully to the imagination to flesh out. Thusly, no one is constrained by one fixed image or what have you. this works great for novels, or one shot settings, or campaigns like...

    The contests are OVER! Thanks very much to everyone for playing!

    my favorite non dragonlance rpg book is Urban Arcana. Not just because i'm a named npc in it (thank you, Stan!), but because it's a joy to read and a font of really cool campaign ideas, like my insurance company of elemental evil concept =)

    Dragonlance Campaign Setting: Missed Opportunity?

    what is the government of solamnia? how many people live in tarsis? just what is in nordmaar? are there any minor organizations, or do the Knights of Solamnia, the WoHS, and the KoT run everything? You know, stuff that the FRCS provides? aka, the details needed to run a campaign that doesnt...

    Dragonlance Campaign Setting: Missed Opportunity?

    eh, technicalities =) i'm not an FR sage by any means. suffice to say, the first two series of FR novels took place in far parts of the world from each other, and thus allowed for a lot of room to adventure in between. let's put it this way- you hear of drizz't clones, but never of people...

    Dragonlance Campaign Setting: Missed Opportunity?

    no. absolutly not. god, no. If it had gone down that path for a fifth time (original modules, DL classics, Tales of the Lance, DL15th anniversary) then the setting would be derided as a one horse wonder who rode that poor mount to death and raised it via foul necromantic means. AKA the way...

    Dragonlance Campaign Setting: Missed Opportunity?

    the thing is, they didnt do that. the DLCS and AoM mainly hit the 'current' timeline of dragonlance. and honestly, the setting detail isnt to the level that i or other hardcores desire. I'm not quite sure what they filled the pages with, but it seems mainly to be a compendium of dragonlance...

    Why are Dragonlance books so overdue?

    i wish there were any good source books. however, Dragonlance adventures covers the original vision of the setting, Tales of the Lance provides more detail, and an alternate vision, the fifth age boxes provide more detail, and yet _another_ vision of the setting, all capped off by DLCS, which...

    Why are Dragonlance books so overdue?

    the books have been greatly delayed due to a number of reasons. first, the company is down to basically Margaret, Jamie and Renee. Second, they severed ties with FFE for distribution. third, there were issues in getting the books to the printers. As it stands, currently both Key of Destiny...

    domain lists

    yeah, alignment domains have been assigned, as have most elemental domains, to the seasonal dieties. This guy is kinda outside the pantheon. I'll check those in the FRCS out, though. thanks =)

    Work Continues on New Front Page Theme

    actually, after looking at it, i think that what was bugging me is that the font is very bright. is it possible to tone it down one step?

    domain lists

    Heya folks. Here's an odd request for ya- Is there any place that has a list of all the domains (OGL, i'd assume) that have been published, with their spell lists and powers? Mainly cause i'm trying to think of another domain for a storm diety, who is also the keeper of secrets and magic and...
