[QUOTE="Gamerstable_Jayson, post: 5791141, member: 6688379"] [b]This would be a dream come true![/b] Great post Morrus! I prefer Greyhawk, and I've been playing on Oerth with my pals for the better part of 30 years, with the occasional jaunt to Mystara, Toril, Krynn, etc. It is our blank canvas that we have lovingly added detail to over the years to the framework and basic info we were given. A place where our PC's were the heroes, only rarely rubbing elbows with Tenser, Mordenkainen and their ilk. On the rare trip to Toril it was easy for my first level guy to feel like a grain of sand on a beach. It was detailed and unchangeable. Inflexible even. GH gave us an area of Oerth to deal with that was roughly the size of Europe and the Med with a larger (smaller) map to tantalize you into sailing off the edge of the Darlene Map to explore these unknow lands and name them ourselves. Toril is a planets worth of detailed info, some of which was shoehorned into the Realms after EGG was forced out of TSR. Some of that was originally intended for GH I might add... Yeah, I'm not bitter. Part of my disdain for WotC stemms from their non-support of GH. If they came back to Greyhawk they would definitely have my attention.
