What would make the setting awesome if it is just yet another place with paladins and fighters and rogues and wizards and on and on? I can see many ways to make this "interesting". But awesome? Awesome probably requires some limits on classes, modifications to races, etc. And the GSL doesn't allow you to leave stuff out. And the CB doesn't encourage that either.I know you went on the say new classes are okay. But the majority of the posters in the thread say 'nay'.Can't happen. The GSL forbids you from redefining existing game terms. What is "alternate mechanics" but redefined existing terms?What's funny is that you think this stuff would be interesting to write. All this stuff is boring. A book of minor NPCs? A book of patrons requiring some small task performed? A book of skill challenges with no context? Please. People want to write stuff that is memorable. You are asking for books full of filler. I understand. You need help filling in the filler sections. But a book totally lacking in the whiz bang stuff is hard on a writer's soul.If the writer isn't motivated to write it, you end up with no product (or lousy  product). And on top of that this stuff is targeted at the DMs. So you are basically writing off 4/5s of the total audience. This stuff would sell? Not a lot.If someone wants to come along and prove me wrong, more power to you. But I don't think anyone will. Sorry.</blockquote>
