Eberron Campaign Setting

    Just wondering what people here think of it. I think it's a nice change compared to the over-powered Forgotten Realms setting, if with a bit too much pulp fantasy/sci-fi bits.

    I'm starting playing an inquisitive campaign of it on Sunday. It's been run by my favourite local GM/RPG writer, if people are interested I could keep some kind of journal on it here :)

    What would people think of this?

    By all means. I'm playing in an Eberron campaign right now too, and it's really really fun. I'd love to see what others are getting out of it.

    Personally, I love the cities. In Forgotten Realms, it's just "You're in Waterdeep." but Sharn, City of Towers is so much more alive and vibrant, and dead cool. A character could spend his/her life there adventuring and not bother with the rest of the world.


    The new races and player classes are fun, the prestige classes are cool (I love the master Inquisitive. Nazi Gestapo Elves! :D ), the action point system makes for some really over the top heroics, and the high tech magic results in pretty much everything I love about fantasy.


    And the artwork, don't get me started on the shiny, shiny artwork...

    /me sits down and has a rest.
