I picked other; 'none of the above', really, as we never played in any of these periods / eras. In our time in Blackmoor, I think we may have been in a period that predates all of these periods.

Gertie was alive and well, Sir Fang was a menace along with Fred's Orcs, and it was - from what I can tell from all of the published materials after FCC, a very different place.

Oh, and the elves had 'magic bang sticks' at the time...

Well, my campaign is set in the second half of the Mage Wars, and has mostly taken place west of the Misauga around what will become the duchy of Ten. The various political factions come in handy as plot devices but there is still a lot of "wild west" feel to it. I like that I can draw on the sourcebooks for all kinds of color, background and geographic detail without being beholden to all the historical events and characters from later days. The future is unwritten, so to speak.

I voted FFC and DA. Those are my favorite eras.

My campaign is a little different though, basically placing DA's Blackmoor in the Blackmoor area of Gygax'z GH. I'm using my favorite parts of both gentlemen's games and mixing in a lot of my own stuff as well. Should be interesting.
