[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9412549, member: 2209"] I'd say regional setting supplements were a thing that took off with Forgotten Realms in 1e and continued strong through 2e, [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/16802/fr1-waterdeep-and-the-north-1e?affiliate_id=17596']FR 1 Waterdeep and the North[/URL] through [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/16807/fr6-dreams-of-the-red-wizards-1e?affiliate_id=17596']FR 6 Dreams of the Red Wizards[/URL] is all still 1e era. I also had the 1e WoG boxed set campaign setting, the 1e Lankhmar setting book, and the 1e Dragonlance Adventures hardcovers for big settings, and even the Conan modules for a little bit of official Hyborian setting material. Greenwood developed lots of setting details in Dragon for the FR setting in a way that Gygax had not really for Greyhawk. Greenwood presented a lot of high magic in his articles and stories and published novels and this led into fleshing out the FR regional setting books in 1e and 2e which then caught on and we got regional setting books in the Basic Gazetteer line and in the new 2e settings with things like the various Birthright players guides to X and even circling back to Greyhawk with the various post Gygax revival periods with the [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/224789/the-city-of-greyhawk-2e?affiliate_id=17596']City of Greyhawk[/URL] boxed set and [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/17431/wgr4-the-marklands-2e?affiliate_id=17596']the Marklands[/URL] and [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/17415/wg12-vale-of-the-mage-2e?affiliate_id=17596']the Vale of the Mage[/URL] and [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/17430/wgr3-rary-the-traitor-2e?affiliate_id=17596']Rary the Traitor[/URL] describing the Bright Lands and others but there was a split among the fans about the Greyhawk Wars metaplot and the new From the Ashes period and so whether the setting details represented a continuation of classic Greyhawk or were contrary to them.
