#5 lord_karsus Jul 07, 2008 13:44:24	-Thanks. :P -Hey, you asked. I'm all for making the Forgotten Realms your own in your own game! :P :D
#6 18DELTA Jul 07, 2008 14:39:31	-Hey, you asked. I'm all for making the Forgotten Realms your own in your own game! :P :D -:D I figured there was some kinda date calculator for the Realms. I bet that will get trashed in the Fourgotten Realms. :P :embarrass 18DELTA :embarrass

But, who knows...
#8 18DELTA Jul 07, 2008 21:24:10	-Unless it's specifically addressed, the calendar should remain the Calendar of Harptos, and should remain in tenday fashion. But, who knows... -Crossing my fingers on this one. Watch them go to a seven day week in the Fourgotten Realms. 18DELTA :embarrass
#9 lord_karsus Jul 07, 2008 21:31:32	Watch them go to a seven day week in the Fourgotten Realms. 18DELTA :embarrass -Yeah, that's what I was thinking. It might be, though, such a "little" detail that it isn't even mentioned, and as such, stays the same.
#10 18DELTA Jul 07, 2008 21:43:04	-Yeah, that's what I was thinking. It might be, though, such a "little" detail that it isn't even mentioned, and as such, stays the same. -Well with the 'concerted' effort to trash the rest of the setting... 18DELTA ;)
#11 lord_karsus Jul 07, 2008 21:49:13	-Well with the 'concerted' effort to trsh the rest of the setting... 18DELTA ;) -Not all of it, nor was the intent from the get go to trash things (in most cases, anyway). But, just as the 3e books ignored so many of the "smallish" details from the 1e and 2e books, because of limited space and stuff like that, I'm sure that 4e will ignore a lot of the "smallish" details from 1e, 2e, and 3e.
#12 18DELTA Jul 08, 2008 14:01:38	-Yeah like 'Unther' and 'Mulhorand'(sp). 'The Little Things' :P 18DELTA ;)
#13 xhereticx Jul 08, 2008 17:44:17	-Yeah like 'Unther' and 'Mulhorand'(sp). 'The Little Things' :P 18DELTA ;) Well actually in 4e instead of ignoring history they go for a more direct approach, wiping it out completly. Unther, Mulhorand, the Vilhon, Maztica, Sembia, etc. Most are now monster-infested wastelands that are barely recognizable from their original manifestions. No more worrying about tying in pieces of Realmslore together that would "overwhelm" an "average" player, just classic names turned into slash and hack.
#14 lord_karsus Jul 08, 2008 18:06:19	-None of those places, it's "that" bad.
#15 merrikcale Jul 09, 2008 19:22:23	yeah pretty much all gone
#16 18DELTA Aug 04, 2008 1:04:16	-LK can I get this thread Closed? Thanks. I dont want it merged with my other Red Hand Thread. 18DELTA :D
#17 lord_karsus Aug 04, 2008 11:04:28	-Sure.
