I really enjoy this setting, and so do my players.  If you’re curious, pick up a Gazetteer…  it doesn’t cost much and gives you enough overview to let you know if it’s for you.Now, having said all that, I’m intrigued by Necromancer’s Games re-release of the Judge’s Guilds Wilderlands Campaign. This sounds very cool in that it gives the crunchy hard facts you want in a setting, such as towns, people, and such, but provides very little in the ways of plots and such.  That is left for the DM to flush out.  Check <a href="http://www.necromancergames.com" target="_blank">www.necromancergames.com</a> and their forums for more info…  If I wasn’t already running a Scarred Lands game and hadn’t dropped a bunch of cash on it, I’d probably try the Wilderlands.</blockquote>
