Curious what a setting vet would suggest I focus my research on first to really know the setting without getting overwhelmed, if that's possible. My first guess is head to the Archives site, but open to suggestions.
Hello Riaghan!
Welcome to The Comeback Inn!
You are lucky, living in the Twin Cities. You should look up the guys who played with Dave

Feel free to explore the Blackmoor Archives and this forum. Other than that, I think the D20 Dave Arneson's Blackmoor sourcebook is a pretty good introduction to the setting.
Some of the books from the 70s and 80s are awesome too, but not as well organized for a beginner IMO. It depends a lot on your tastes and what you are used to though.
Let us know what you think and how we can make this place better.
