Message: <blockquote data-quote="William Ronald" data-source="post: 36800" data-attributes="member: 426">The joy of campaign calendarsAs a courtesy to everyone who wishes to particpate in the IR thread, I have calculated the dates of various events.  I am starting with the assumption that the current date in the LGG campaign setting CY 591 is equal to the current DR 1372 in the FRCS.The reason I did this is that the different cultures and factions would be using different calendars, so they might want to refer to them.  For example, the city of Greyhawk likely uses the Common Year calendar while the national of Celene would use the Olven Calendar.  The United Commonwealth of Toril, represented by Forrester, most likely uses Dale Reckoning.  I do not think that the Church of Shade, represented by Lord Melkor(Talos), would use the Dale Reckoning calendar.  So I created a calendar based on the foundation of Netheril.( I referred to page 13 of the Living Greyhawk Gazeteer and pages 266-271 of the Forgortten Realms Campaign Setting.)So, here we go:Event - End of the Greyhawk Wars.Occurs in :Common Year (FY) 584Oeridian Reckoning(OR) 1228Baklunish Hegira(BH) 3243Flan Tracking(FT) 2734Suloise Dating(SD) 6099Olven Calendar (OC) 5046On Toril:Dale Reckoning (DR)1365 (Observed in many places in the Realms.)Netherese Calendar (NC) 5224 (Observed by the City of Shade and allies.)Date in current WOTC products:CY 591OR 1235BH 3250FT 2741SD 6106OC 5053On Toril:DR 1372NC 5231 Edena, you stated that the thread will begin 40 years after the end of the Greyhawk Wars.  So, if this is still the case, here is everyone's starting dates.CY 624OR 1268BH 3283FT 2774SD 6139OC 5086On Toril:DR 1405 (Probably observed by the UC of Toril and the indepent lands of Mystra's Chosen.)NC  5264I hope this helps everyone.Edena: Have you gotten that TARDIS working yet? If not, let me know and I'll loan you a sonic screwdriver.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":-)" title="Smile    :-)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":-)" />I will not try to claim anything more for a few days to encourage others to post their claims.  I am trying to drum up support for our thread elsewhere.  If anyone  in this thread can make a casual mention of it here and there on the boards, it might help.  (Also, the info on the Legendary Persons and Places in the World of Greyhawk thread is quite good.  Edena, you might also want to consier the information on Slerotin on page 65 of the LGG thread for another possible personage of power. Also, when I checked my LGG on Geoff and Sterich, it was Geoff that was overrun by the giants not Sterich. Sterich was listed as recently reclaimed in 591 CY.  Off course, things may change by 624 CY. )</blockquote>
