@SJohnRoss I'm not that familiar with Grayhawk and I suspect that my feelings about the setting are probably shaped by the fact that I played AD&D at exactly the time when TSR were dumping Grayhawk in favour of Faerun.
It's a lovely idea to play your way out of a setting using a different ruleset though.
@SJohnRoss I've come to appreciate un-detailed and un-adorned settings that manage to be evocative. My mind has little room for lore... I just want a fictional space where people can be inspired to make some questionable silly creative decisions.
@SJohnRoss I always really liked Last Unicorn's weird extrapolations. It's always nice to be surprised by RPG mnaterial pertaining to stuff you are already familiar with
