[QUOTE="Gothmog, post: 1030435, member: 317"] Originally posted by Emiricol: Well, if that was true, then yes, it would have been the dumbest mistake WotC ever made. No other setting out there on the market today compares to Midnight, period. But Midnight wasn't sent in for the campaign contest. It was developed locally by a guy here named Jeff Barber, and I played in one of the Midnight games he ran in development. The setting FFG submitted to WotC is called Dawnforge. According to the most recent Game Trade magazine: "Enter the age of legendary heroes, legendary magic, and legendary power! Chosen as one of the 11 semi-finalists in WotC's setting search, Dawnforge is an exciting new campaign setting for the d20 system. This core book features detailed information on the setting's geography, history, legends, villians, heroes, monsters, and magic, and includes a full-color fold-out poster map of the Dawnforge world. Oct 2003." This new WotC setting leaves me completely cold. I love dinos, but they seem thrown in just to be in the setting. Steampunk is really a rather silly idea IMO, and combining it all in this setting seems really gimmicky. Pass. [/QUOTE]
