[QUOTE="cbwjm, post: 8277604, member: 6788732"] So glad you had an answer for me: All or most of them are great in different ways - I can't choose! I love the planescape version of the great wheel (I don't really know how it differs from the classic great wheel other than the inclusion of Sigil and planar cant) with all of the weirdness of it, thing is, I can also run planescape using the world axis which was a great simplification of the planes. Mystara is interesting in that I love the setting but don't really know much about the planar configuration, other than that there are plenty of planes with more or less influence by the spheres of power. I don't think they are really spelled out. The FR cosmology I pretty much just consider a subset of the great wheel, I never really considered it separate. I know next to nothing about Eberron or Spelljammer. Dark Sun isn't all that interesting as a planar configuration but then that's a setting where plane hopping isn't really something you aim for. Other cosmologies I like that aren't DnD specific are the 9 worlds of Norse myths, seems like that would make for a simple planar configuration for a DnD game. My current game I've created a unique cosmology, kind of similar to the world axis but with plenty of differences. Even when I know it isn't likely to come up much, I do enjoy setting up the planar configuration of a setting. [/QUOTE]
