Eberron is another semi-lite setting I just don't see why every setting should be dealt with in this manner... and if you want to make lite settings and aren't just trying to herd people toward DDI by skimping on info, then create 2 products like the 3e Greyhawk Gazetteer and the Living Greyhawk sourcebook and let the fans decide and sales speak for what they want.</blockquote>
