Well, I'm a totally noobster to Blackmoor. Literally, John Snow of Blackmoor. I know nothing of the setting (until I was pointed to this forum, I even had problems understanding the different Blackmoors, and I guess I'm still only grasping the basics). But, giving the importance of the setting to D&D, I want to know about it. Since 4e is one of my favorite D&D editions, and I have plenty material of it, I'm thinking in buying the 4e version of Blackmoor and giving it try.
But I have my doubts, since Blackmoor seems to be really a puzzle to me (I guess I'm drowning in a glass of water). Is 4e Blackmoor a good source for the setting? Can I expect to get the Blackmoor vibe in its 4e version? Its faithful to its original? How about the 4e exclusive stuff? Did that ruined the flavor or enhanced it? And, how friendly is for a newcomer to the setting? I mean, do I need previous knowledge about the setting to be able to play in Blackmoor 4e? Do I have to get other books to get the full experience or is all in the 4e book?
Thanks in advance for your help.
