[QUOTE="arkwright, post: 8437509, member: 6925177"] Moon v Planet is relevant if you are going by a rule where players can swap in X planets and Y moons. If you decide not to go with MAP in Act 3, that's fine. There are a few planes that need to be in place for Act 3. Ratios is Gidim-infested and their way onto the world, thus Ratios needs to be in the array... or you could just put the Gidim-infestation on another world. Av needs to be swapped out so that the party can travel there at the start of Book 12. Reida needs to be swapped out, that or the Voice of Rot hijacks the plane forcefully. Supposedly, Ratios is needed to explain the Ob persuading people to align against Risur, but I really don't think that tracks. Those are pretty much the only requirements, and most can be varied if you are wiling to put the work in. I do agree with Hirou, mostly because as-written Nic institutes MAP no matter what. I would note that it is very possible for the PCs to 'ethically' decide on a new planar configuration. My own party publicised their findings and flat-out made newspaper advertisements encouraging people to pick their own configuration and send it in. It is very possible to get popular backing to pick a new configuration. Of course, you may not be interested in going down this route. [/QUOTE]
