Hey Ghul! Well lets have it! Since you were working with the MAN, how about some feedback on your CZ upper works project. I haven't seen it but I hear it is huge. You pretty satisfied with it?

H ...

I'd like to offer a few corrections to some of the above remarks. First, I am not a ghost writer. My name is on the cover of Castle Zagyg: The Upper Works right next to Gary's. I was Gary's co-author, ...

Man's got con-EGG-tions. ;) Looking forward to your review, 'dog. Tell it like you see it, I expect no less.

Best,
Jeff T.

Hello fellow Hawkers,

I look forward to reading your candid thoughts and insights regarding Castle Zagyg: Upper Works. I travel light, so I don't even have my own copies yet. At Gen Con, I watched ...

Yes, it will be there. Hope to see you there, too!

Cheers,
Jeff T.

GVD,

Well said. I'm proud to have met you and happy I introduced you to Gary at Gen Con last year.

Best,

Hey Nelli,

I'm actually south of you my friend (small town called Atkinson, so I'm even more of a low-lander than you!), but I often enjoy heading up to the mountains, and will be up there again in ...

I don't think there is any connection. I used to visit Hawthorne's great stone face -- what we always called "The Old Man of the Mountain" -- until one day it fell down about 5 or so years ago. I've t ...

Hello,

I've been using C&C as a rules component of my Greyhawk 576 CY campaign ('83 boxed set almost exclusively) since 2005. By nature, I can't help but tinker with rules, so my game is also ...

Does anyone know what Gary's opinion of Greyhawk had been over the past years that he was away from it publicly? Did he know about this place or others that continued to build on his vision? Did he st ...

Nicely put. Smile

I think it is an individual campaign choice, and what you suggest above is perfectly fine. Some other alternatives (or expansions to what you suggest) might be:

* 2 distinct orders, 1 Suel, 1 Baklu ...

Fellow 'Hawkers,

It's been a very sad time, losing my friend and mentor, Gary Gygax. I'd been working for Gary almost 2.5 years now, and in that time, talking almost every day, we became good pals. ...

"Ghul"]In Gary Gygax's Castle Zagyg you will see the entire castle complex revealed<snip>

Any idea when this product will be out. I have seen the world created and read a little bit in the st ...

In Gary Gygax's Castle Zagyg you will see the entire castle complex revealed: every wall, every tower, every gatehouse, every outbuilding; the wilderness surrounding, the caves that pock the bluff on ...

I find the "Who is Who" article potentially useful for my campaign, and I intend to print it and stick it in the binder. In my GH 576 CY game, my players have multiple sets of characters. One set of c ...

In Gary Gygax's original Greyhawk campaign, he used Norse gods. This was before he'd begun the GH pantheon. Also, keep in mind that a few of the Norse mythology giants have a place in Greyhawk (if I'm ...

The 2e version works best for me! :) I think the piece is fantastic. Nice work. I'm going to print it and add it into my binder of GH deity info.

Gotcha. And I take it that Yggsburgh is not unlike the Free City of Greyhawk, and that the Four Tors bear a shocking resemblence to the Cairn Hills.

The Free Town of Yggsburgh is certainly not unli ...

I have posted the Faerie Kingdom of Celene to the WoG Heraldry page.

Hi Theocrat--

The 2 town modules for Yggsburgh that were released at Gen Con (Moatgate District and Town Halls District) were printed in small quantity for sake of Gen Con availability. As I unders ...

One of the issues, IMO, is the expectation of the modern gamer. Greyhawk is grounded in an historical context, verisimilitude infused with just enough magic to make it "fantasy." We have knighthoods a ...

I think it's a great idea to get the Greyhawk meetup in the program book. I would have really liked to have attended this year's, but by the time I found out about it I already had other plans. The so ...

The other world is actually "Uerth," which appeared in Expedition to Castle Greyhawk as an "evil mirror universe" version of Oerth. "Urth" wasn't part of the pentad.

Urth is a term associated w ...

If you have the 1983 WoGH boxed set, I would look at the Glossography where population distributions are charted in exceptional detail. Gives one a fine overview of each region's inhabitants, human, d ...

If I unsticky it you wouldn't see it at all it would be buried. =P

Anyway I'd suggest again right after the Dealers Room closes (6-7pm EST) meet up by the registration areas. Look for GHers you kno ...

I'll be at the Troll Lord Games booth all weekend (*edit, @Gen Con) and would love to meet any fellow Greyhawk enthusiasts. Stop by and say hello if you have the time!

Does running the original Temple of Elemental Evil count? If so, I've run that start to finish and took some character sheets along the way.

--Ghul

This is excellent work. I'm going to keep an eye on your site!

--Jeff T.

Count me in for the 1e version!

--Ghul

I also find it lessened in usefulness due to the system it is written for, but it looks like a fine compilation nonetheless. I wish it was written for AD&D, but I like it for being Greyhawk.

Sure, would love to contribute something.

Very nice find, Von Bek. Good stuff!

Hello GVD,

The first boxed set is slated to be released at Gen Con, in which Gary Gygax will be the GoH. This announced by Steve Chenault at the TLG site.

--Ghul

It's true.

Great post. This is exactly how I feel . . . and IMC, Eclavdra is a former follower of Lolth who now follows Graz'zt. ;)

--Ghul

It is tempting to include it as you suggest GVD, and although I have never read this book (though I do have 4 or 5 LA books), I'm pretty sure that Chris Clark, who is Gary's right-hand man in developi ...

Thanks for doing this!

--Ghul

Fantastic! Please do share when you complete this work! ;)

--Ghul

Well said, GVD. Health permitting, I think Mr. Gygax has a lot of gas left in the tank when it comes to creativity.

--Ghul

Ghul, take a look at this for inspiration:

;) Bookmarked. Thanks...

'Hawkers,

The advice is all most excellent! I have decided to develop my Saltmarsh wholecloth, as the DMGII version does not reflect a 14th century fishing town in my estimation; rather, it is mor ...

I suppose I should have noted also that my campaign is set in 576 CY. My intention (the campaign started in 575) is to use the 83' box set as the bible and basis of my setting, then use whatever mate ...

'Hawkers,

I will be running the Saltmarsh modules for my group for the first time in over 20 years! I have the DMG II, and I'm wondering what folks here think about the Saltmarsh content in that v ...

Thanks DMP--

This should suit my prupose quite well, allowing me to cut & paste, then delete all the items that do not fit my narrow-minded sense of canon! ;)

If only the novels were also in ...

Fellow 'Hawkers,

Hello. I'm looking to piece together a GH timeline in chronological order that comprises not only the timeline from the '83 boxed set but also the addition of events as chronicled ...

With RJK's departure from Troll Lords Castle Zagyg project, EGG is going it alone with the help of Troll Lords and a group of "assistant" writers writing under EGG's direction.

I'd sell the property to Gary Gygax for $1.00. Merry X-mas, Gary.

I'm coming back to Greyhawk after a long absense (10+ years) adn as I peruse all my 3.0/3.5E books, I see that there is a lot of Greyhawk material -- but you have to comb through to find ...
