[QUOTE="zoroaster100, post: 6363532, member: 8538"] I'm running Lost Mine of Phandelver and will be soon running Hoard of the Dragon Queen (I think I'm deciding it is 1479 DR) in the Forgotten Realms. What are the best resources for running a campaign focused in the Sword Coast region? I got Murder in Baldur's Gate for the info on Baldur's Gate. I'm considering getting a supplement on Waterdeep from 2d or 3d edition, and the Fourth Edition hardcover on Neverwinter. I'd like to have something that gets into more detail on the faiths of Faerun, more detail on other cities of the Sword Coast region, and maybe an overall Forgotten Realms resource for the whole continent and maybe even beyond just in case the players stray occasionally from the area where the campaign is focused. But I'm open to other suggestions for where to find good resources. I've found a lot of stuff online, but it would be nice to have a book for easy reference, and big USEFUL maps with hexes to plot long overland travel and find important locations. I don't like a lot of the changes made to the Realms with Fourth Edition, but am ok keeping the canon changes to the Sword Coast, but also ok ignoring the crazy geographical changes like whole countries destroyed or added, etc. [/QUOTE]
