So I'm excited for the new release, pre-ordered the core books and starter set, but I'm hedging on the two new adventures.
Based on the descriptions, they seem to be built from the ground up for the Forgotten Realms. I know that many people love that campaign setting, but it just doesn't ring my bell for some reason. Also, cilantro tastes like soap to me and I don't like ketchup on hot dogs...just a matter of taste.
I like Greyhawk and have the gazetteer from 3E and the giant poster map from Dungeon magazine, but I'm no expert on the setting. So, based on the info we have about the new adventures, can somebody give me some tips on how to set these in Greyhawk? I know we don't have all the details yet, but I'm just looking for some ideas to let me start learning about the appropriate parts of Greyhawk to be ready. Who could I use to replace the Cult of the Dragon for example? I don't feel I know enough detail about Faerun to make a good guess. Is the Cult of the Dragon something that could be transplanted whole into Greyhawk? I'm open to ideas. If the members here can give me some direction. I think I'd be comfortable in picking up the new adventures. I suspect that most adventure material for the new edition is going to be Realms focused, so learning enough about both setting to make swaps will make me more likely to use the published stuff.
