[QUOTE="Halford, post: 4395015, member: 64844"] I'm just going to address a few points here which are related to the kind of world I would prefer - obviously these are merely my preferences. Map: I want a map, not a perfect or binding map, but at least a vague idea of the world set up. Graf your argument seems to be that some people don't care and won't use a map. Well thats all well and good but if I and anyone else would like a map how will hurt them? Those who wish to ignore a map can certainy choose to do so, but I would like one and try to keep to it as DM. I'm not sure why you feel we must force everyone to stick to a map if we have one. I am inclined to think that if one is provided more will use it than do not, but I certainly dont thnk its neccesary o "force" people to stick to it. Islands: I would prefer to run and play on the mainland personally. I find Islands limitingly finite and more Islands does little to assure this concern for me. There is also the fact that Islands almost force travel by ship upon parties, certainly not a major concern and easy enough to bypass, but on the mainland naval travel is a choice rather than dictated. Overall this is a very minor concern but one that bugs me more than I would have expected. I suppose I'm not sure quite why I have such a negative reaction to Islands, but I do seem to - hmmm? I suggest that a compromise is the ideal, with the starting point on a mainland point near to the Islands enabling me to live out my irrational dislike of them. The Allarian League: The reason I like the League is because free City states can be anything the DM wants, new ones can be placed in nooks in Allaria's Mountains and the ony restriction is that they must be part of a vaguely defined alliance for mutual defence. Goblin Empire: I certainly have no objection to the idea of Eladrin commanding the Empire, though I'd like at least a dwindling faction of their numbers to have remained in the Feywild just becaus I am so keen on the fluff. Poll: Good job on the poll Graf! I placed my vote for all Wizards books. Setting suggestions: I'd love to hear more proposals, choice is rarely a bad thing. And please feel free to viciously critique my own suggestions, though constructive critisism is of course preferable. [/QUOTE]
