Here goes:FORGOTTEN REALMS CLASSIC EDITION - a box set by Ed Greenwood (as rules neutral as possible, although I'd be happy with 4ed). Basically it would be the Forgotten Realms as Greenwood--and only Greenwood--envisioned it. That means the original Moonshae Isles, the de-&quot;Hollywood historicized&quot; versions of Unther and Mulhorand, no Kara-Tur or Maztica, and certainly no Al-Qadim. While I'm at it, here's another I'd like to see:THE WORLDS OF DUNGEONS &amp; DRAGONS - a hardcover with chapters giving overviews of every campaign setting ever published by TSR or Wizards of the Coast, with world maps and basic info. This would include Tekumel (maybe), Blackmoor, Greyhawk, Dragonlance, the Forgotten Realms, Planescape, Spelljammer, Birthright, Jakandor, Dark Sun, Eberron, Mystara, and a few others I'm undoubtedly missing. I'd of course love to see non-TSR/WotC settings included, but you've got to draw the line somewhere. The book would also include appendices detailing every product every made for each setting.(While I'm at it, a Rules Cyclopedia-style compendium for OD&amp;D would be a lot of fun).What about you?</blockquote>
