Hello Rob!

Hehe, there is certainly room for suggesting improvements to this place. Curtains you say? ;)

Maybe you could share some of your ideas on Blackmoor derived from with us? :)

I am a fan of the 3rd edition rule system, but although I no longer want to play AD&D, I am a greater fan of the 2nd edition era (and the vast number of different campaign settings that were published during that era).

Back during my AD&D days, I saw the differences between AD&D and OD&D as a barrier to me being able to understand products from that line.

However, since converting over to 3rd edition, I have become excited (and impressed) by the various communities that have been converting older material to the d20 System rules.

I've recently become interested in D&D campaign settings in general, and Blackmoor's place as the first D&D setting has made me interested in talking about it over at The Piazza's Blackmoor forum.

I recently picked up my first (and so far only) Blackmoor product: the paperback version of Dave Arneson's Blackmoor (the 3e version from ZGG). I understand that First Fantasy Campaign is a free download from Dave Arneson's archived website, but have not yet grabbed it.

My main motivation for looking at multiple D&D worlds, is to eventually be able to use them in a world hopping campaign that uses Spelljammer as a way to visit every known D&D world. But I am also interested in these worlds from the same sort of intellectual point of view as Garolek seems to have.

I also recently picked up Robert S. Conley's Suppliment VI: The Majestic Wilderlands (a reboot of the Wilderlands campaign setting), but do not have any other Wilderlands products yet. I have no Mystara products at this time.

I do have some Greyhawk products, but not as many as I would like.

So I am interested in Blackmoor as it exists in its own right, as well as how it could work with these other three settings. In fact I am also interested in how it could specifically work without the other settings, so that I could use the settings as different worlds in the same campaign (if I decide to go down that route).

Ideally, I would like to see Blackmoor fandom get to the stage where a group of fans set up an encyclopaedia of Blackmoor (rather like Forgotten Realms Wiki, The Great Library of Greyhawk, Dragonlance Lexicon, Planewalker's Planescape encyclopaedia/wiki). I would like to see this sort of thing done for every D&D world (and have started work on what will eventually be an encyclopaedic wiki for Spelljammer).

I would also like to see fandom eventually do other stuff for Blackmoor. Maps, art, stories and anything else that people want to make. I think that circumstances have held the setting back and that the hobbling that was applied to commercial Blackmoor is something that need not apply to fanon Blackmoor.
