[QUOTE="Wik, post: 5301694, member: 40177"] OF them, I can honestly recommend all of them except for "A Mighty Fortress", which attempts to portray the renaissance. It's definitely a little bland, and a bit broad in focus. The others, though, are all great. I especially like how you can tie a few of them together to make one super campaign - Age of Heroes + Celts + Glory of Rome + Vikings make an amazing mix. Glory of Rome is my personal favourite, with the Vikings book coming a very close second. The others, while portraying interesting time periods, didn't catch my attention as much... and this is coming from a guy who (outside of D&D) is fascinated by Celtic and Greek culture and doesn't really care much for Vikings. The trick is to look at them as starting places, and not necessarily as campaign sourcebooks that will force you to run non-magic games. You can take that Roman book and create a highly fantastic campaign out of it - lord knows I have. [/QUOTE]
