[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 8849913, member: 6801228"] Is there some sort of rule standard? "When writing Spelljammer, you must write at least 10 pages of material"? Because this declaration seems based on.... nothing. I've never heard of some sort of page requirement for settings. You are just asserting this like it is a fact. But it still doesn't tell you everything, does it? It just has MOAR, but you have yet to show that the spelljammer book actually doesn't contain enough information to run the setting, you've just declared it like it is a fact. And yet, we have people in this very thread that have said they are currently running campaigns using it. How could this be possible if it doesn't contain enough information to run a campaign with? Wow... I'd ask if you were serious, but you have to be. You honestly think it is perfectly justified that when comparing a city to a country, you can take a city, then a palace in that city, then a fountain plaza in that palace in that city and the walls of that city, and count each individually, Well, then I'll get us up to that sixty locations you want for the lower city of the Rock of Bral. I'm away from my books at the moment, but I can start with The Happy Beholder, then the door of the Happy Beholder, then the Bar Top of the Happy Beholder, then the north wall, the south wall, the eastern wall, then the western wall. Clearly this is far better, I've now got Seven locations instead of just one. If I did this for all seven locations in the lower city, I'd get 49! Then I just count each individual street. So, there you go Max, over 50 locations just in the lower city of the Rock of Bral. 231 locations minimum for the entire place! After all, locations can have smaller locations within them, as everyone knows. [/QUOTE]
