06-05-05, 11:27 PM I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find information on the city of Calimport. I am interested in running a campaign involving a bunch of thieves guilds at war with each other and figured Calimport was the best bet. Also does anyone have any tips and/or advice on running a campaign based solely inside of a city?

The Calimport sourcebook.

Both of these are 2e.

Empires of the Sands sourcebook from 1e, which the above box set updated.

Kuje, it's the Calimport sourcebook that is a free download, not Empires of the Shining Sea:

So it is. :) Odd that Lands of Intrigue is but Empires isn't. :) Oh well either way one of them is on that list.

06-08-05, 02:25 PM Thank you all for the information. I found the paths of darkness at half priced books near my house :) I wonder if they are gonna come out with a 3.5 edition of calimport... probly not for a while if they do.

It would be a total waste of resources to 'update' Calimport to 3.XE - as the only thing they would be updating is stats. IIRC the majority of the NPCs had a one-line stat block with little or no further information - really easy to convert to 3.XE. So basically, put in just a little elbow grease and get your Calimport campaign up and running.
