[QUOTE="Saracenus, post: 8273006, member: 47839"] There was also the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer (LGG) besides the very thin Greyhawk Gazetteer they published at launch in 2000. That book has been the post-Greyhawk Wars bible for many folks. You are also forgetting the support for 3 Paizo-Hawk adventure paths in Dungeon and Dragon Magazines. That was: [LIST] [*]Shackled City [*]Age of Worms [*]Savage Tide [/LIST] Also there were a couple of stand alone Greyhawk adventures (Mad Gods Key, The Mud Sorcerer's Tomb, etc.). And then there was Rob Kuntz publishing updated and new levels of Castle Maure (set in the Duchy of Urnst) which is based upon his work on the 1e adventure Mordenkainen's Fantastic Adventure he authored. In addition there were 6 stand alone issues of the Living Greyhawk Journal and then the continued publication of LGJ in both Dragon and Dungeon magazines until the end of the Living campaign in 2008. There also was the hardback Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk published by WotC. All in all, 2000 to 2008 was highwater mark for officially published Greyhawk and way more content was out there than you remember. The Silver Age of Geyhawk (WotC) was during that brief 2e window before 3e was born. Holy crap you left off a lot of stuff. --1998-- [LIST] [*]Return of the Eight (Adventure) [*]Greyhawk Player's Guide [*]The Adventure Begins (Campaign Setting) [*]Lost Tombs trilogy of modules: [LIST] [*]The Star Cairns [*]Crypt of Lyzandred the Mad [*]The Doomgrinder [/LIST] [/LIST] --1999-- [LIST] [*]Return to the Tomb of Horrors [*]Return to the Keep on the Borderlands (The original B2 was basic D&D, but the update was set in Greyhawk) [*]Return to White Plume Mountain [*]Against the Giants: The Liberation of Geoff [*]Slavers (Adventure and Sourcebook) [*]Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil [*]The Scarlet Brotherhood (Sourcebook) [*]TSR Jam (it contained an adventure) [/LIST] I don't have a list of Dungeon adventure's from the time. Without this work, Living Greyhawk in 3e would not have been. This was not a whim of WotC. The complicated Gordian Knot of legal ownership of various Living Greyhawk (LG) Published works prevented WotC from using this campaign as official Greyhawk. LG was still a massively important entry point for the second wave of Greyhawk fans. [LIST] [*]First off, there are at least 3 major fans of Greyhawk on the D&D 5e product team... Mike Mearls, Christopher Perkins, and Chris Lindsey. [*]There are a ton of folks in the Greyhawk fan community that are producing original Greyhawk content. [*]Greyhawk Online (home to the Greyhawk Wiki) and even the old-lady herself, Canonfire.org has seen a huge increase in activity. [*]The Oerth Journal has been resurrected and has been publishing quarterly for over 2 years. [*]There are several Discord groups are dedicated to the subject. [*]Countless blogs. [*]Facebook, well, as someone who runs one of the medium sized (about 3000 members) Greyhawk Facebook group (and there are a lot of Greyhawk groups out there), I have to say there has been a steady increase in interest over the past 3 years in the setting. [*]More importantly has been the multiple streaming Greyhawk campaigns that has brought the setting to a whole new audience. There is a dedicated Legends & Lore show that runs weekly. I can say that WotC has noticed streaming activity more than anything. [/LIST] I do want to say, there were some Greyhawk stuff done even in 4th edition. Mostly in Organized Play at the tail end of the RPGA (which morphed into D&D Encounters during 4e) and by 5th edition became Adventures League. Do I think Greyhawk will be a setting in the next 3 to 4 years, yes. Do I think it will be the next one, no. [/QUOTE]
