Which settings are worth looting?

[arwink]

I currently play in Eberron, so I don't know whether it counts as looting. Once I'm done with that campaign and go back to my homebrews, there's fairly good odds that some of the Eberron elements will go with me (particularly Artificers and dragonmark mechanics, as well as the action points).

WHen I was running homebrews, my looting list consisted of:

The Known World/Mystara
The Ptolus setting that appears a couple of times in Monte Cooks products and website
Planescape (for planar stuff and feel)
An old fantasy game called Dragon Warriors.
Titan, the world of the Fighting Fantasy game-books
The Iron Kingdoms

Greyhawk???????

That's what I'm thinking too.

Argh! Can't beleive I left Warcraft off the poll.

Argh! I can't believe you left Planescape off the poll.

But regardless, I chipped in my votes for FR (outside of the planes, I adore FR), Ravenloft, Scarred Lands (some of the magic material I've used), and a generic vote for Planescape (moral ambiguity, clash of philosophies, planar stuff) and Darksun (psionic stuff).

And CoC for the atmosphere and tone.

Besides Eberron and The Scarred Lands, I vote for:

Wheel of Time
Warcraft
Iron Kingdoms
Call of Cthulhu

Empire of the Petal Throne is one I draw a lot from. Also lots of literary settings (Nehwon, Young Kingdoms etc)

Edit: I take a lot of crunch from OGL Conan.

About the only thing I like about 2e is some of the setting stuff like Al-Qadim, which is one of my favourite settings even though I'd modify it to avoid the shoehorning in of all the standard D&D races.

Wilderlands I tend to use rather than plunder from, but I like lots of things from Blackmoor and non-d20 Glorantha and Warhammer.

Arcanis, Arcanis, Arcanis, bit of Eberron, little bit of FR, and Arcanis.

Good to see some other enlightened persons here who have voted for Arcanis, and Gothmog, you're damned right.
