[QUOTE="resistor, post: 1609281, member: 9142"] So I'm sitting here thinking, and I had an idea for a new kind of supplement: setting fragments. Think of it like a setting that's split into sections. For instance, you could have a setting fragment for one particular take on arcane magic (for instance, a Faerun-like fragment with the Weave etc., or perhaps a Krynn-like one with the moons of magic). Of course it's not limited to arcane magic. You could just as easily have fragments on the divine or martial. I'm sure someone's wondering how this differs from the Complete series. Well, what I'm suggesting is not just a set of setting agnostic-material, but rather setting-specific material that is designed to be modular enough to be recombined. A divine-focused fragment would be tied to a specific pantheon/divine cosmology, but could be used in any setting that integrated that pantheon/divine cosmology. Make sense? So instead of buying a complete campaign setting, DMs could pick and choose fragments that appealed to them for integration either with other fragments or with homebrewed material. Anyways, what do you think? Do I sound like a crackpot, or do you think people might actually use something like this? [/QUOTE]
