I've had one who has told me to call me when I run Eberron.

Having only barely scratched the surface of the Campaign setting, some of the things I can forsee doing with Eberron are:- A "Sharn (L.A.) Confidential" type of game- Gaming out parts of the Last War- Running an artifcact hunt a la Indiana Jones- Running a high-politics style of game with the Houses- Running Church Inquisitors for the Silver Flame- Replaying the desparate struggle between the Silver Flame and the Lycanthropes- Running a Lhazaar Pirate Kings gameThe player who likes Eberron to the exclusion of other settings is playing an artificer who is running his own magic item business. He loves it because he rarely gets to play an entrepreneur in D&D, but he loves it! He enjoys the dungeon crawls, but he enjoys his character accumulating wealth all the more. It's his thing, who am I say it's "bad wrong fun", to borrow a phrase from Psion? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
