[QUOTE="eris404, post: 1926285, member: 5338"] Yeah, Kid Charlemagne did several things for his revamped world. He gave us a brief (no more than 4-5 pages) Player's Guide in Word format; it was mostly for character generation and acts a basic introduction to the world (brief overview of religions, governments, ethnicities/countries, important organizations). He also maintains a message board which he uses to post articles and maps and answer our questions in depth. He also had a web site for the old (2E) version of his world, but I'm not sure if he's going to update that or not. To be honest, I hope he does and compiles/archives all the great material he's put on forums for posterity. :) Something else that he's done that I like a lot: he had a player in another group illustrate some places and things important in the campaign world. He did a really great job of it and it really made the places come alive. Because I really, really enjoy world building, I'm going to make a fairly detailed document, but slim it down to a few pages for the players, if and when I get to run it. I realize that not everyone is going to be as into the minutiae as I am, and besides, I want to give the players some room to create as well. I want it to be a living document. :) [/QUOTE]
