Bluffside

[Eltern]

The Mystic Eye giveaway made me look at their website, and they have a LOT on Bluffside. A lot. I would be interested in running a whole campaign that takes place in one city, given that the city's scope is large enough to accomodate lots of environments, which Bluffside's seems to be.

Has anyone played Bluffside extensively? Is the material already out there, adventure wise, sufficient to start a campaign for a DM that likes prewritten adventures, but after awhile wants to start dirtying his hands with making up his own stuff?

I'm sure I could do this one-city campaign in some other setting. Waterdeep. Greyhawk. Heck, I could steal Monte's Ptolus stuff (Actually, that's what inspired this). But Bluffside seems to be the right amount of detail. Lots, but not the GINORMOUS amounts that has so many issues with "what's cannon" and such.

So, comments?

Bluffside is a wonderful place to build a campaign around and it can be dropped into any campaign with minor changes. Some of the best points to it is the 'hooks' given in the NPCs descriptions, more than enough to adventure on. The 'districts' of Bluffside can accommodate any game you deal with.

To me it is the best city book out, it has grown with my campaign.

Oh, the maps - download them. What I have done is paste them into MS-Word and using 'callouts' added locations of my own.

How did I miss this thread! Must be that I am still ill .
Thanks HoE, we also feel very strongly about Bluffside in fact there are some POI and guilds for them in Gaming Frontiers 1-4 and a cool adventure spot in GF#5, the adventure was suppose to be our first product but when we heard about the city that you had to go to (Bluffside) we changed gears and went full steam ahead into Bluffside, it has a decent following and I would love to hear about any fan sites or campaigns online that feature stuff we can post to help people, that would be great.

If you have questions on it...just ask us, we are here!
