I think there is some stuff that could be produced that doesn't rely
too much on individual campaigns.  (not to toot my own horn) I see my
write-up of Dragon Rock as one of these.  We already know Dragon Rock
exists and where it is and my write-up simply gives it detail that fits
with what little there is about it in canon.  While it assumes Rock of
Bral is also in the Tears of Selune I've specifically designed it so
with little or mno modification the write-up can be used with Bral in
an entirely different sphere (preferably one that links directly to
Realmspace, however).

Also some new ships (I won't even try to say all), deckplans for
existing ships (Night Druid has a couple fro the often forgotten armada
IIRC) that aren't mapped (damselfly, flitter, and mosquito jump to mind
and beholder vessels would be great also), and so on would easily
adable also.  Personally I think adding Paul's SJ primer (minus
anything that may be specific to his campaign) would be one of our best
ideas as that would help intro people to SJ that have no idea what it
is and how it works.  Addign his timeline as a suggested one would be
another good step in the right direction.

These assumptions tend to backfire, though this seems to be true of
those that post regularly on this list.  Of course 3rd Ed stuff may end
up alienating people.

Thank you.

Do you really think I'd admit to stealing that much money in my email sig?  Uhh, don't answer that.

The crazier the people are around me the saner I am.  That's why I work
in an asylum.  No, not the rubber room again!  No, but, but, my email...
