Message: <blockquote data-quote="pemerton" data-source="post: 9486421" data-attributes="member: 42582">A straightforward D&D world requires a town/city (for urban hijinks), a forest (for Elves, and for Bugbears et al to raid from), hills and mountains (for Dwarves, and for Orcs et al to raid from), and an idea of mysterious lands on the other side of the forest, across the mountains, etc.A swamp and seacoast helps too.The Nentir Vale in the 4e DMG ticks these boxes. (Though the coast is of a lake rather than the sea.)So does the mini-setting in the module B10 Night's Dark Terror. (Again, sans coast. I used this for my main 4e campaign.)And so does the middle of the GH map - there are Dyvers, Greyhawk itself, and Hardby for towns; the Kron Hills and Lortmils; Celene for High Elves and the Gnarley Forest for Wood Elves; the Pomarj for Orcs; the Wild Coast and Woolly Bay; and still in the same general area the Abor-Alz and Bright Desert.It hits all the traditional high notes for FRPGing.</blockquote>
