[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9223307, member: 2209"] This is going to vary a lot by individual I think. I particularly liked the 1e version of the Red Wizards of Thay, Conan style Stygian sorcerers in D&D running a magocracy. 2e had them not able to win or ultimately be competent, 3e turned them into interesting but differently focused international evil magic item merchants with diplomatic immunity. Eventually Szass Tam turns it into a NecroMagocracy which I do not care for as much. I really like the 1e Thay D&D Conan wizards as a group. 2e was the full setting version I first got myself with the fantastic bare bones early Forgotten Realms Adventures hardcover with the huge array of specialty priests which is very cool, but I had earlier bits and pieces of Realms stuff and left the setting for a friend to get into for when he DMd while Greyhawk was the campaign I ran and got most 1e stuff for. Thay as a concept and a little art worked well for me in 1e. [/QUOTE]
