[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 3672653, member: 11760"] Between my various Ptolus games, I've incorporated Redhurst, Freeport, Stonebridge and a bunch of other modular settings, as well as ripping out pieces of other settings and plugging them in. When the Game Mechanics finish the Arcane Quarter book, I'm using that as Ptolus' Vock Row (a neighborhood of wizards and sorcerers). And, as mentioned, Goodman Games stuff in particular slots in painlessly almost anywhere. (After the Longcoat game wraps, I'm going to offer those players interested in a sequel another adventure there, using a smaller Goodman Games urban adventure, which will again fit in more or less perfectly.) The only FR book I'd say you'd have trouble with would be the Silver Marches, but even then, it's a classic noble elf forest with a looming orc threat, which means it has a lot of currency in other settings. I'd say the Expedition to Undermountain would likely be the easiest "setting" to drop in elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
