Possibility of D20 Midkemia

[Midkemia d20 Fan]

Well, I've never seen the Midkemia Press books so it is hard to say. But I think what would be best is do a campaign setting approach. Give us the countries, the city states, the history, and allow people to make their own stories in it. THe books are very event oriented, don't make the Dragonlance mistake that has the adventures being what happened in the books.

For those who haven't seen any of the old Midkemia Press books, The Black Tower is available for free at http://midkemia.com/BlkTwr.pdf and so is Towns of the Outlands, at http://www.midkemia.com/Towns.pdf

There's also a map of Krondor at http://www.midkemia.com/images/Krondor.GIF and other stuff on their web site.

It sounds like no one's really interested in the old stuff, just a new book like the FRCS or WoT books from WotC. That's a shame, the old books were great. See the links above for some samples

Don't jump to conclusions now!

Now,now, don't be jumping to conclusions here. I, and another Midkemia fan, vote for the originals converted to d20.

I do eventually want a big beautiful campaign setting. But start out small with reprinted and converted. Especially if the d20 company doing the conversion has a firm grasp on the rules as well as, and more importantly, have a grasp of Midkemia.

I would want a setting/campaign guide. Looking at the MP products of the past, well, they don't look any worse than anything I bought then but they don't have any real appeal over cheap PDFs available now.

I love the Feist books and have turned a number of my friends on to them over the years. The lack of the internet meant I never realized there were RPG products related to/based on/the source for the Midkemia novels. I know at least two of us would buy a "World of Midkemia" book up to current standards in a heartbeat. Though

I would be a bit more comfortable if their website didn't come straight out of a 1995 "Build your own website" clip-art cd. It's time to leave the dot-matrix friendly graphics behind. Hire a college student or something, please. Heck, see if Ray's received any decent fan-art and buy it from the artist.
