Re: Vote Up a Campaign Setting (VUACS, 3E/4E): Yes, Really!
This is quite valid, and may make people (perhaps unconsciously) try to sabotage the voting. It might (read: probably will) do me, unless it turns me completely off.

I do my homework, cnsvnc, never fear. Look at the previous Vote Up A Villain. They voted fairy, I gave them a Celtic-inspired babystealer. Originally Posted by cnsvnc

Hey, hey, I'm not sabotaging voting if it doesn't go my way, I'm sabotaging voting if it goes one, very specific way.

Besides, I'm not sure that a hopeless plunge into self-parody should necessarily be called sabotage. I mean, doesn't ludicrous self-parody comprise the entirety of the Steampunk genre?

Re: Vote Up a Campaign Setting (VUACS, 3E/4E): Yes, Really!
As much as I want a solid sci-fi option to show up one of these days in homebrew, it's likely not going to win, and to be honest with you this Desert Fantasy option actually intrigues me more. And it's not just because I was recently trying to come up with a post-apocalyptic campaign so I could have Desert Elves. No sir, not a bit. (And yes, I realize it's more Arabian-Nights inspired and not post-apocalyptic, but that actually sounds even cooler to me. And we still get to finally get those Elves out of their trees.)
That, and steampunk seems overdone to me.Last edited by Juhn; 2008-11-10 at 12:57 PM.

Re: Vote Up a Campaign Setting (VUACS, 3E/4E): Yes, Really!
western frontier in all likelihood it wont win but I'm voting based off of what I want, and the dustlands doesn't look like it is getting finished anytime soon, and that makes me sad. Although arabian nights sounds promising.

Like someone else already said, voting to make it a satire/self-parody would be more unique, I think. Originally Posted by Meek

Really impressed by the diversity of this one. I hope the result will be satisfactory to all.

Re: Vote Up a Campaign Setting (3E/4E)
Hey, way I see it, even if Victorian/Steampunk wins, we can always push it more towards "Victorian" than Steampunk. Something similar to the Victorian era, with its empires and racism and violence, would make an excellent backdrop for a fantasy game.

Whats wrong with steampunk? And also, there's no reason why steampunk and fantasy can't coinside. That is unless the people running this say it can't...
