Concordant Opposition Planescape product?

[Voadam]

Is there a planescape ESD that deals with the true neutral plane of Concordant Opposition?

A Player's Primer to the Outlands. it's little known and little spoken of, but it exists.

A Player's Primer to the Outlands. it's little known and little spoken of, but it exists.

Outside of that, there's only the original campaign setting box. You might also look in the PSMC II (I think) for the Rilmani.

Yea, the Player's guide to the outlands. Comes with a nifty CD that's just great.

Concordant Opposition isn't really talked about much. It was replaced with the Outlands in Planescape.

There is also the Planes of Balance (is that the right name?), boxed set, but I'm not sure it's covered there.

Planes of Conflict. I don't recall if they did much with the Outlands in that one.

 

[Arnwyn]

They didn't.

Shemeska and Boz got all the main sources for the Outlands/Concordant Opposition:

- Player's Primer to the Outlands
- Planescape Campaign Setting
- PSMC II for the Rilmani

Yes, the CS and Player's Primer to the Outlands are pretty much the only sources that talk much about the Outlands. The CS pretty much sets up the Outlands as a place where you can set low level adventures for a party based in Sigil, and describes some of the more important sites. This is because of all the Outer Planes, the Outlands is the one that most resembles an ordinary D&D world, except for the diminishing magic as one approaches the Spire.

The Player's Primer is kind of gimmicky (this was when TSR was experimenting with products that included audio CDs), however, it expands a bit on the material given in the CS. The Primer tends to focus on the gate towns. If you don't know what they are, they're communites that that have permanent portals to the other Outer Planes; each town has a portal to one specific plane, and the gate town tends to reflect the nature of the plane it leads to. The Primer does mention other sites in the Outlands, but only gives them like a paragraph or two, where the gate towns all have at least one full page.

A few of the Planescape adventures take place in the gate towns on the Outlands. If you decide to run a game on the Outlands and want to use gate towns, we can refer you to which adventures have info on which gate towns. Or if someone less lazy than me wants to go ahead and fill you in, they can It might help you a little for Outland fluff.

Thanks for the replies. I'm planning on running a modified Lord of the Iron Fortress and using the town of Rigus next to Acheron.

I've got the ESD of Planes of Law and the one of Conflict so I've gotten better info on Bladelings than the module or MMII gave but was disappointed to see that Conflict did not cover Concordant Opposition.

I think I bought the Planescape CS but I'll have to check, I know I haven't read it yet if I do have it.

It looks like that players guide to outlands ESD is a 40 page book but does not contain the audio cd,

IIRC, Modron March went through several Outlands burgs.
