[QUOTE="Arnwyn, post: 1681002, member: 7701"] I agree. How unfortunate. (More) feats and PrC's based around "ancient empires" (?). Wheee! Not me. As an FR DM, I see little utility in this book compared to other FR books (especially FR geographical supplements). Though I agree, they will make this book more palatable. I certainly disagree. The Heartlands have been done to death. I have no problem with Heartlands material, but I want to see entirely unpublished (or too-lightly published) areas taken care of first, before we go back to areas that have been overly-covered. (Though, other than PGtF, 2004 was a banner year with both SK and the upcoming SS being released.) [/QUOTE]-- it's the Dragonreach lands that are the heart of the Realms and the subject of most of Ed's unpublished lore.[/QUOTE] Too bad Ed's not writing it. Looks like we'll still be waiting for that "unpublished lore" (which will more likely than not stay that way). Though I do wonder what more possible info we could get on the Heartlands before it becomes redundant and DM-utility goes way down. Anything more really only looks worthy for web publishing (if Ed's recent material at WotC's site is any indication). Ah well. One can't win 'em all. [/QUOTE]
