Plus the fact that the WORLD of Greyhawk is not limited to the chunk of play of that strip of lands ravaged by the Greyhawk Wars <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Where did the Aqua Oreidians travel too when they stuck it further East?What of the secrets held in the lands Blackmore, surely some brave adventurers have already maped more of the exsisting area presented.  I would love to see a d20 Game Company acquire the rights to do this (like the guys who have done Kalamar but with the same style and detailed maps as found at Canonfire), IF WotC couldn't or wouldn't take up this challenge, which we all know would sell very well if given the proper advertisements.If I didn't have the job I have now (the military) and had some funds to spare I would try to look at trying to legally publish this.Please listen to this WotC!!! I know this is a shared vision, my career has given me the oportunity to meet gamers from coast to coast, US, Canada, UK and even the Downunder, and it has been a topic of discussion.  Do a survey, appease your HASBRO masters with witty marketing skills and show them the money! that could come from such an exploit.  Take the chance.  Don't get extravagant.  Keep production costs low and the cost to the consumer relative, just enough to make a modest profit and spread the wealth.  I'll buy two of everything, if I can afford it. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Eric  Noah, I vote for your expertise and beseech you to talk to the right people for us little guys in this world of corporate partnerships.  You have the heart of Greyhawk at hand.  I've read soo much of your contributions.  You da man!<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Greyhawk material was there before and it can be again, bigger (poster sized!!) and badder! With a lot more detail, exploit the information out there, both Living Greyhawk and similar Canonfire resources alike!  Make it happen! Make it so! Heck! Forward this to the "big wigs" in the respective departments/offices with WotC and HASBRO!Just a little sucking up there, but in all reason, I believe this is a worthy venture. Thank you for listening.Cheers! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
