[QUOTE="Banshee16, post: 2752681, member: 7883"] I e-mailed Midkemia Press about two months ago, asking about that, and never received a response....now maybe they don't care to respond, maybe they've decided it's a dumb idea and scrapped it, maybe it's dead, or maybe something is under negotiations, and for various reasons they're not permitted to reveal anything yet. I know the author was resistant to D&D, but I'm not sure whether he was resistant because of the old 2nd Ed. rules, because of the 3E rules, or because he's been shown that D20/OGL could be used to represent his setting and isn't confident in it. Or maybe he was thinking a WotC D&D setting, as opposed to OGL or something. If Green Ronin can turn out "Black Company Campaign Setting", Mongoose "Conan", or Guardians of Order "A Game of Thrones" as RPGs, and each of them do as complete adaptations as they have, I see no reason a really well done Midkemia setting couldn't be done. I'd probably reboot my campaign and go Midkemia in a heartbeat if someone *does* do it. As it stands, I guess I could do it myself, but that's so much work and research for a homebrew.
