[QUOTE="Darkwolf445, post: 3222553, member: 38505"] The reason I mention Tekumel is because I have the original setting. It has a lot of Underworld suggestions, dungeon crawling and exploration, and just gives off a good, nostalgic vibe. The newer GoO book fleshes it out, but the original harkens back to OD&D and gives me warm feelings. My problem with Kalamar is that I cannot wrap my mind around it. It's not that I do not like vanilla, Greyhawk was my original campaign setting, I just cannot see something that sticks out to grasp onto. Right now there is the Campaign setting, the original player's book, and this new player's book. The first two are too similar and it have a lot of repeated information. This new book, even after having read the extensive review, does not seem to add enough to justify the price (I get enough grief from the wife for my gaming expenses as is so have to be a little more choosy about products). I will add, however, that I think the Kalamar Atlas is, hands down, the best Atlas I have seen to date. [/QUOTE]
