[QUOTE="Demetrios1453, post: 8305019, member: 6801060"] It would be fine if they did concentrate in giving some detail in one region (which would almost certainly be Cormyr/Sembia/Dalelands/Moonsea), just as long as they don't fob off the remaining areas of the setting with a paragraph or two, as SCAG did (although they could say "For more detail on the Sword Coast region, see the [I]Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide[/I]", to save some room). Do like Eberron and Ravenloft did, and give like 2 - 4 pages to each country/region outside the core zone, and that will be fine (and 2 - 4 pages to cover each of the main areas outside Faerun, if they care to enter that potential minefield). Honestly, that wouldn't be too much different from what the 3e FRCS did when it came do detailing nations/areas.... I'm curious what the "city of adventure" that would get its own chapter (as Sharn did for Eberron) would be in this case though? None of the cities in the region quite have the cachet that Waterdeep, Baldur's Gate, or Neverwinter have. Suzail? Westgate? Raven's Bluff? Maybe they would go the opposite way and give us a "village of adventure" with Shadowdale... [/QUOTE]
