Not to be out done by the Forgotten Realms people. I feel there should be as much interest in Greyhawk and effort. We all know that 3.0 and 3.5 was Greyhawk. We know that 4th ed catered to Forgotten Realms. Its time for the cycle to roll back around to Greyhawk.

I love Greyhawk and would mind more support from WotC. I'm with you!

If what they did to Forgotten Realms is an indication of what they might do to Greyhawk... I'd kind of rather they leave it on the shelf. BTW, there are a lot of materials for Greyhawk available on the web. Google is your friend.

Brand new stuff that is canon to an ongoing history kinda like what they did in 3.0 and 3.5 like say "Return to Temple of Elemental Evil". Now "Revenge of the Ginats" should hav been Greyhawk and 4E "Tomb of Horror" was bland. The took the fear factor out of it with too many saves for me.

Now a question here is how much they would need to change it. There is a strong urge to give each race a homeland, which means if they add in new races, they fiddle with the setting too. Greyhawk is also a heavily human world, which doesn't work as well when we have parties that may be entirely non-human.

There are Greyhawk websites, fanzines... lots of stuff. 'Official canon', as far as I'm concerned, ended forever when Gygax stopped writing Greyhawk. Anything else is you pick what you want and run it like you stole it.

Its called multitasking with different settings. You create a world with Race homeworlds and Keep Greyhawk as is. When they come up with these ideas they lock them selves into idea that seems iron-clad the they way your talking. They can have more than one idea it would seem. There doesn't need to be this premise that we are only going to focus on one idea and one idea only. They could have Realms, Greyhawk,etc and still be successful and productive and make a profit. Isn't that what its really about. Ideas that will make WOTC money. Trust me if they bring back Greyhawk, they will not have a problem making money or selling the product unless they botch it all together. 8)

I want support. Racial composition should have limited impact on that. However, I'll point out that kobolds and centaurs were allowed (with special access; I'll admit) into the WotC sanctioned Living Greyhawk campaign.
However, WotC treatment of FR and LFR does make me leary; however, a simple campaign book like the Greyhawk Gazetteer (3rd edition) is better than being completely ignored by WotC.

Great World with memorable adventures that people talk about still today.

Greyhawk represents the setting of my first "successful" campaign. It has a special place in heart...
