It had to be forgotten asap. They did their best to ensure that future gamers would forget.For a long time, the original box set and even the From the Ashes were impossible to come buy as physical copies and pirated digital ones were of low quality (as is almost every single pirated pdf I have seen). 3ed treatment of Greyhawk was underwhelming to say the least. Thus, it is not that Greyhawk could not have fans, but rather that potential fans were turned downed. Isn't it strange that whenever I get to bewarched playing in Greyhawk that young gamers get curious and interested in the setting many claims is reserved for nostalgic grognards like me? That with the guils they get the book asap and even go so far as to print the maps and laminate them?If presented correctly, Greyhawk is as interesting as any other settings.Ho, and Dragonborns are easily introduced as dimensional travelers/refugees. I placed their arrival just south of Nyrond. Their arrival was seen as bad omen until the king saw the number of lawful good Paladins in the dragonborn nation. They were venerating Bahamuth, the platinum dragon and the tenets of their religion were close to those of Heironeous and Mayaheim. Nyrond allied with them and they are now accepted as members of the good races. This integration of the dragonborn was done in a small mini campaign and it was quite fun to play it out. If I could do it, anyone can.</blockquote>
