Message: <blockquote data-quote="Staffan" data-source="post: 1683139" data-attributes="member: 907">You'll never get rid of me!Not sure about the grey box, but:Forgotten Realms adventures had 2 pages each on the cities of Baldur's Gate, Elturel, Scornubel, Berdusk, and Iriaebor. Nothing on what's in between.The 2e box set has a full 19 pages on the WH - not bad, for an overview of the entire setting. Though almost two full pages of those are taken up by an overview of various merchant costers, so it's more like 17 pages.The 3e FRCS has 8 pages on the WH.OK, Volo's Guide to the Sword Coast is OK. Rather light on mechanics though - I don't mean prestige classes and stuff, but as in NPC stats and the like. I'd prefer to see something more along the lines of Silver Marches.I don't mean that WOTC should disregard the outlying areas entirely when they make new FR books. I think a 50/50 mix would be perfect - every other geographical sourcebook would be on somewhere in the Heartlands (Waterdeep, The North (other than the Marches), Western Heartlands, Sembia, Cormyr, Dalelands, Moonsea, the Vast, the Dragon Coast), and every other would be on one of the outlying areas (Old Empires, Amn, Anauroch/Shade, Calimshan, etc.). That would be a nifty mix.The thing is that while the outlying areas are interesting, I'm certain that the vast majority of FR campaigns take place in the Heartlands, not in Halruaa or Thay.</blockquote>
