[QUOTE="Treebore, post: 2924518, member: 10177"] Your totally right. Erde is a totally rusted out old car in comparison to the presentation of Kalamar. Like I mentioned, Erde "sparked" for me when I read through it. Kalamar doesn't. I like Kalamar, I'm sure I would even love it if I were to start using it. Until I read something in the books, and I do own a lot of them, that give me that spark, I'm going to go with other settings that have and do give me that spark, such as Erde, Ravenloft, and the Wilderlands. If it helps any I used to run everything in Greyhawk. I love Greyhawk. It hasn't sparked my imagination in years. Over a decade. I love FR, well, my FR, not that crap that TSR did. I have bought all but 3 of the books for it in 3E and own everything from 1E/2E. Haven't felt a desire to run it for over 5 years now. Who knows? One of these days I'll need some inspiration and I'll pick up one of the Kalamar books to see if I can find it. Then that magic will happen and all of a sudden I'll come up with a Kalamar campaign idea that gets me jazzed and it will just have to be done in Kalamar! Then this well thought out, many layered, well detailed setting will become my new "home" for who knows how many years. Until then, the ancient rust bucket of Erde is getting me where I want to go. Plus, in the next year or two, the new, suped up, super glossy Erde is going to be released! Who knows how long that will keep me going with Erde! Even if it is being redone as "Airhde", it will always be Erde to me. [/QUOTE]
