Apparently there were a few things in DA4 that Arneson was unhappy with, but it has never become clear what those things were. It is possible that this rumour has been emphasized by ZGG as part of a stratetegy for selling the "real DA4" at some point in the future. This never happened though.
No, no.
It came out as a freeby called "The Grim Winter". :wink:
Havard Wrote:My own isnt too different, though I probably move the WL and C&C Society (Unless authored by Arneson) a bit further down the line.
The reason I do this is that the FFC and JG are complimentary to each other. You can find many ideas that are in Blackmoor (at least in the d20 line) very close or similar to many concepts of the JG world. (Clearly, with the number of modules released by JG, it's normal that some low-fantasy elements repeat themselves.)
Every time, I open a JG book, I find something I can use for Blackmoor.
But as I said earlier, this is just my take on those things.
