[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 8852370, member: 2209"] Generally setting sourcebooks. I like setting material a lot. It is good to have a number of adventures, but I already do for 5e and I find myself interested much more in getting more setting material type stuff as discretionary spending purchases. If I only had Icewind Dale I could run it in its default Forgotten Realms with the information there and in the 5e PH. But if I did and was setting it in the Realms instead of my homebrew mashup setting I would be glad I have a decent FR background from 1e-3e sourcebooks and have a number of them to draw on. Nothing wrong with getting introduced to a setting by an adventure, my first FR product was the 1e [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/16801/N5-Under-Illefarn-1e?affiliate_id=17596']N5 Under Illefarn[/URL] intro module which I feel is decent with a little bit of dwarf and elf history tie in, but I really liked the [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/16797/Forgotten-Realms-Adventures-2e?affiliate_id=17596']2e Forgotten Realms Adventures[/URL] sourcebook for getting a sense of more FR things.
