[QUOTE="Nightfall, post: 1938169, member: 374"] Pants, [sarcasm] You really know how to sell a setting don't you? [/sarcasm] :mad: Just because a setting has stopped putting out more books doesn't mean it's still not damn useful! Fact is there might be a chance it comes back (Yes I'm spearheading the revival but it's gonna a take a while.) In any event, my reasons you should run Scarred Lands: Magic might be a little high, but the characters STILL need to rely more on their own skills and abilities to survive. (I know I've had to modify a little to increase this factor but its become a fairly common/accepted way in some SL circles when handling Character creation, in terms making no magic items for sale, and finding them/getting/keeping them more important than tossing them aside.) Druids aren't nature clerics! (Very important in my mind) The gods are way more active and have cohesiveness than some settings. (Not to mention a N god of death/dead. Yeah Nemorga! :D) Rangers can now do more outside since we have enviroments that make what happened to Cyre looks petty by comparison. (Hey you have guy like Thulkas stomp around and see how much life sticks around. Well him or Chern. Both are favorites. ;) ) Sorcerers aren't always dragon blooded! Yeah titans! And yes, the Titans. The ultimate bad asses. Blood Sea. It's really a sea of blood! Anyway that's my SL support for the start of 2005. If you do want low magic and gritty, Midnight's a good option. I would say if want AU, wait for AE (Arcana Evovled) The return of the Dragons has me pretty stoked. But what I think you should REALLY do is this: Play in my mIRC Scarred Lands game. You'll not be dissappointed. Well so far no one has been. I could be wrong... [/QUOTE]
