[QUOTE="haakon1, post: 2461378, member: 25619"] [b]Re-set[/b] My wish list, cross-posted/adapted from the Gygax question & answer thread: I'd re-set Greyhawk. The original box set is the real "source" material for Greyhawk. Later stuff is only canon if we want it to be. Some of it really doesn't belong. The classic adventures -- Against the Giants series, Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth, Temple of Elemental Evil, and S-series -- are definitely in. A lot of the stuff from "Greyhawk Wars", a silly board game produced by Lorraine Williams, needs to go. All of which means the "Living Greyhawk Gazzetteer" is pretty good, but needs editting to make it better -- more Greyhawky. In particular, my changes are: - PC's won in Against the Giants/Vault of the Drow. Therefore, Geoff and Sterich were not conquered by giants. - Bissel was invaded by Ket, but it hasn't lost. It was too strong in the boxed set, with a standing army of 8000 mercenaries, and help from the Knights of the Watch, Veluna, Furyonday, Gran March, Keoland, etc. - Iuz hasn't conquered so much, and never had a big army of fiends, though the Crook of Rao from the Isle of the Ape did get rid of those he had. For me, he conquered or co-opted the Horned Society, Shield Lands, the Bandit Kingdoms, and the Rovers. I don't care about Stonefist or the Pale. He's fighting Furyondy on the Veng and Veluna through the Vesve, and controls Whyestil Lake. - Great Kingdom colapsed, and Megedia and Almor were badly effected, but it's not supernatural, it's like the Thirty Years War -- plague, hunger, war, and pestilence have driven out most of the humans.
