[QUOTE="jester47, post: 344982, member: 2238"] Wow, I have to say that you guys put a lot of work into your campaign. Lots of changes and exclusions. Wich is not bad. But I go the other way. Demi humans - They are all there. Lycanthropes - love em. Mainly the rats and the wolves. I love the greyhawk pantheon. Especially since I made hextor and Heironious different aspects of the same child god. Airships? yes. Dragons in all their colors? yes. Dragon subspecies? yes D&D standard planar cosmology? Hell yes. This way, if I like somthing I just toss it in. The biggest problem I have is with the one degree alignment shift. For god worship. But that is pretty minor. My problems with generic stuff are these: Oftentimes there is only one planned way to deal with a problem. But over all I decided long ago that trying to exclude things made things harder and less plausible than if I included things. WIth exclusion you have to exclude from everything that uses the original set. So every module is not going to fit. With inclusion, you dont exclude anything (as long as it is just not RIGHT OUT). It allows you a lot more creative flexibility I think. Things can be as off the wall or gritty as you want. It just depends on where you are in the world. Aaron. [/QUOTE]
