[QUOTE="Jupp, post: 1932957, member: 20804"] I think there is more than one split 1. The time EGG left TSR was considered a turning point for GH. 2. The Greyhawk Wars was another one 3. Living Greyhawk the next one 4. Greyhawk being the "core" setting for 3E is the last one I know of IMO we have at the moment at least 4 factions discussing which is the proper Greyhawk. And at times it can be quite funny to watch them bashing each others heads about this topic :) There are some interesting things in the Greyhawk War and the later GH modules/accessories so I am trying to use this stuff where it fits. The real charme of GH lies in the old TSR modules when EGG was still in the Company but there are still some very cool bits in the newer things. I cannot say much about Living Greyahwk (I have the LG Gazetteer from 2000 or so, and thats it) simply because I refuse to pay for their stuff nor am I interested in playing "sanctioned games" under their banner. The whole idea is just ridiculous in my eyes and it was, at least IMO, the biggest cause of fractioning the GH scene because as a non LG player you simply have no access to the resources. For me GH also lost alot of karma once it became the core setting for 3E. I fact this "new" Greyhawk is quite the joke. Thank god we have Erik Mona and Dungeon that still tries to give some kind of creative input to this old lady called Greyhawk. The upcoming Castle Zagyg and some stuff from RJK is another thing that adds to Greyhawk. Just my 2 coppers. Other people may have a different opinion about all this ;) [/QUOTE]
