This post is part of a series of posts in the D&D 40th
Anniversary Blog Hop Challenge. The
information in many of these posts is related to events that occurred primarily
in the1980’s. Since it is now 2014, I can not guarantee complete accuracy with
such a large passage of time but I will present the events and information as
best as I can recall.
Day 9: First campaign setting (published or homebrew) you played
in.
When we first started playing
A/D&D we did not really use any campaign world information outside of the
scant information included in the modules or hinted at in various spots in the
rule books. We just sort of acknowledged
it in the background and winged the details from there. No one in our group ever bought any of the
campaign settings for use in our games.
The best answer I can give is that defaulted to the information given on
Greyhawk in our AD&D gaming and to the Known World in the B/X games. We did not focus on or even go into great
detail on the campaign world until we moved onto other games.
The first game world that really
struck a chord with us was Palladium Fantasy.
The world was different from the standard fantasy offerings from TSR at
the time. We became very interested in
exploring it after the core book and would pick up others. The other game world that really stood out
was Talislanta.
