[QUOTE="rounser, post: 1916883, member: 1106"] Yes, I think most of us already knew most of that. But it's a matter of prominence too - you could quite happily play a campaign in Greyhawk and never realise there was a spaceship on the world, or completely overlook FR's use of Set because you never went to Mulhorrand, and never run across anyone with an arquebus. Dark Sun gets away with alien weaponry, races and psionics because it's dark fantasy world is supposed to be alien, and it makes only a limited claim to being a standard medieval swords & sorcery world. In Blackmoor after the ship had crashed, it would be harder, because it would begin to enter public events. Personally, I think crashed spaceships are fine; they're a much better option than building technological anachronisms into the culture by default, even if they're "justified" with magic (i.e. Eberron). At least the Beagle came from "somewhere else". Eberron has no such excuses, from what I gather. [/QUOTE]
