[QUOTE="djotaku, post: 9818016, member: 7054471"] I know a lot of folks find Steampunk cringe. I came across it at an impressionable age, so I am a sucker for a Victorian setting full of trains, steam, and all the related shenanigans. Unsurprisingly the release of the new Eberron content for 5e 2024 is the inspiration for this thread, but it's not merely about that. [B]D&D[/B] [LIST] [*]The biggie here since D&D 3.5 is Eberron. I own Wayfinders. I imagine for running 5e (2014 or 2024) that Rising from the Last War is also a good one to pick up. I've got a few questions. 1) Is there a legal source for either Embers of the Last War or Oracle of War? D&D Adventurer's League campaigns for Eberron. 2) Recommendations for any of Baker's DMSGuild's Eberron books? (other than "all of them" ;) ) [*]Any non-WoTC recommendations for good Steampunk settings/campaigns?
