Now that was a setting with verisimilitude. Of course it was a "low-magic" setting so using it for D&D had it's own issues. <br /><br />I am sorry that i missed this poll.<br /><br />(the word verification codes are actually starting to resemble real words...I am afraid...very, very, afraid...)By The Swordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16799389743529116360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991833568800031158.post-39847322828009196812009-03-30T10:55:00.000+11:002009-03-30T10:55:00.000+11:00Oh wow; thanks for stopping by, Jeff.

If we had been voting on "Forgotten Realms novels that Greg enjoyed the most" I have some very serious props for the Finder's Stone books.<BR/><BR/>We tease because we love. :-)Greg Tannahillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00823898295759037081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991833568800031158.post-51727153288230151722009-03-28T13:50:00.000+11:002009-03-28T13:50:00.000+11:00Thanks for clarifying.

Some friends waved some of the 3.5 supplements for it under my nose the other month but I really haven't had the chance to get up close and personal with it at leisure.Greg Tannahillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00823898295759037081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991833568800031158.post-5762104645725245732009-03-26T08:47:00.000+11:002009-03-26T08:47:00.000+11:00Well, now Maztica is 4e'd out of the world, which ...Well, now Maztica is 4e'd out of the world, which would be a shame, but I don't think anybody knew much about it?<BR/><BR/>Great line about RA Salvatore, btw ;) I enjoyed this read.<BR/><BR/><BR/>I voted for Eberron myself.
