Simple and vanilla, but large enough to potentially have a place for everything d20 related. The maps could also be made to only cover a smaller part of the whole world, allowing for even further customization if needed. Let all the 3rd party people sort out what to do with it. Additional setting sourcebooks (by my people or others)could be comprehensive or more modular, for either a complete one-world-in-a-book thing or easily customized by gm's (buying multiple different sourcebooks and mixing it up). Additional books could therefore be consistent with established canon for my world or contradict anything previously published (as long as it is easy for customers to figure out which type of book it is). Do a few (depending on the amount of material released by 3rd party publishers) sourcebooks, using the campaign setting in different ways. eg. a grim'n'gritty version, a superhigh fantasy, a lowmagic, an arabian nights, a mists of avalon romance thingy etc. Perhaps even do a write-our-setting contest for this, and publish the best.But i would still focus most of my efforts on other campaign settings specifically eberron and forgotten realms. I'd also release single comprehensive books of older settings, such as darksun, mystara, greyhawk etc.</blockquote>
