It sounds like Faerun and Eberron are out sooo...Midnight: Lower magic, and while the characters are pretty buff, there is less magic to make them superpowered. There is a very strong Tolkien feel to the setting. The idea is a world where an evil god has taken over (ie. middle earth if Sauron won). It's very good and very critically acclaimed. However it's very dark and most of the time you will be fighting against the evil gods minions (which might get stale). <a href="http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/midnight.html" target="_blank">http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/midnight.html</a>Iron Kingdoms: A very well written world. Introduces steam and guns, however the technology isn't over the top. It's still a very fantasy orientated world. Magic isn't as common as in a standard D&D world. Introduces new races and some new classes. A lot of MM creatures do not exist (ie. no Orcs, halflings). Religion is interesting and handled well. There is a war between 2 powerful nations, all the while evil forces are is carefuly waiting for the right moment to strike while everyone is distracted.  Over all it's my very favourite setting. <a href="http://WWW.ironkingdoms.com" target="_blank">WWW.ironkingdoms.com</a>Dawnforge: I know this one less. The premise is that it's the dawn of the fantasy era. The characters are the heroes that the legends will speak of 1000s of years later.  Very high magic and ver high powered. Intersting concept, not supported too well. <a href="http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/dawnforge.html" target="_blank">http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/dawnforge.html</a></blockquote>
