Aihrde Setting

[R. Scott Kimsey]

Do any of you play in games set in Aihrde? I'm curious how people
like the books relating to that setting. I've seen them on the TLG
site, but I haven't been able to flip through one because they don't
have it at the local store.

It's good ol' Greyhawk for me.

[R. Scott Kimsey]

Me too Chris. That's the setting I have always used the most. The
only 3.x setting that really appealed to me was the Iron Kingdoms, by
Privateer Press, though I also found quite a bit I liked in Eberron.
Funny because those two are so different from Greyhawk.

I run a homebrewed setting that is heavily influenced by sword &
sorcery literature. There is also a strong Lovecraftian element to the
setting as well. As for Aihrde It seems like a strong setting from the
materials I have read. If I ever do decide to run a pre-canned setting
I would definitely consider using Aihrde.

Sounds like something I'd enjoy. I'm a big fan of Lovecraft, as well
as of swords and sorcery in the vein of Robert E. Howard, Fritz
Leiber, etc.

If you are interested in cosmic horror infused sword & sorcery you
should check out my blog - Swords Against the Outer Dark. The link is
on my profile. All the game rules and discussion I have presented so
far are geared toward C&C. Enjoy!

[R. Scott Kimsey]

Thanks, Mangus. I bookmarked the blog. A lot of good information
there, and some great links. I'm a fan of Clark Ashton-Smith as well.

I see under movies you have the Cthulhu movie. What did you think of
that? I thought it was pretty cool, personally. Better than I
expected it to be.

[Mangus]

Thanks for checking it out. I can use the traffic. :-)

I enjoyed CTHULHU very much. I think they nailed the Lovecraftian
atmosphere. The movie was creepy on many levels... despite Tori
Spelling's participation.

[Chris Perkins]

Tori Spelling does have the Innsmouth look... so, in that regard, she belonged in the movie.

[Mangus]

ROFLMAO!!!

Being a guy that works closely with TLG, I have run the setting a
couple of times. My normal setting is Goodman Games DCC 35 The Known
Realms. I run this because I cannot possibly do Aihrde justice while
running a game for the guys that actually created the setting. I wasnt
around in the early days so I could not possibly be as familiar with
the setting as the guys I am running the game for are.

[R. Scott Kimsey]

Yeah, that would be a bit difficult, wouldn't it? My game is currently
set in a homebrew world, though Aihrde might be an interesting place
for it (or Haunted Highlands).
