Message: <blockquote data-quote="Laurefindel" data-source="post: 9854302" data-attributes="member: 67296">Eberron barely makes it to early industrialisation, which is very modern in D&D standards, but I think a FR ‘68 would go much further.People in Eberron live much like to people of the early 19th century. In a FR68, we’d be in the second half of the 20th century. Eberron has trains and public transportation, but 68 FR would have personal transportation (cars or equivalent) for several generations already. Eberron has magical messengers and short-range communications, but FR68 would have equivalent of phones in each household with the ability to call you aunt in Xendrik. House Sivis would no longer be the messengers; they’d be the company sending you a bill at the end of the month because they own the infrastructure. Eberron has successful entertainers making a good living going from inn to inn. FR 68 would have planetary superstars playing for 100,000+ crowds. Eberron has the Mournland. In FR 68, the most powerful nations would have the magic/technology to nuke your country into a new mournland at a touch of a button. Eberron is reeling out of a massive continental war. FR 68 would have potentially seen yet another global war, even when everyone thought there wouldn’t be any, living both with the wounds and trauma of the last one, and among the new technologies and magic that flourished thereafter.In many respects, FR 68 would be so much more that « just Eberron ».</blockquote>
