[QUOTE="GuyBoy, post: 8417404, member: 7031143"] I think [USER=7030526]@Henadic Theologian[/USER] asks a pertinent question about exactly what could go in a Greyhawk setting book. I think the same could be asked about FR too, but I’ll have a go at an answer. Please accept the rider that I’m making no claim to be an expert, or that my suggestions are any better than anyone else’s. Also, in my earlier post, I stated that I’m not a Greyhawk purist, and that I’d support significant areas of Re-write; I say this because it is important that we reflect the positive changes in our own world since the 1970s and avoid the repugnance of the TSR3 debacle. So, here goes...some ideas for Greyhawk at 50 setting: [LIST] [*]Maps [*]New artwork [*]Guide to states/countries inc city of Greyhawk [*]History...and here’s where updates start; I’d advance 50 years from the last setting in terms of events and “where we are at.” [*]Key adventure regions in depth eg Yatil Mountains, Depths of the Earth, Gnarley Forest [*]Deities [*]20(?) Greyhawk adventure hooks [*]Some key NPCs statted eg Iuz, Rary, Tasha plus some new figures from the advanced history [*]A brand new Greyhawk adventure [/LIST] I have made no attempt to structure a setting book at all, and these are just some ideas in response to a question. I’m happy for people to ignore, throw brickbats, improve or whatever. As an aside, I’d love to see this celebration-product accompanied by a “Return to...” treatment of the Tsojcanth and Tharizdun modules, but I may be over-reaching here. [/QUOTE]
