I am wondering if this could work without ruining the fantasy flavour of the campaign: * Old Technological complexes: These could appear as little more than dungeons, pergaps with some Gigeresque feel to them, and even weird experiment creatures still living inside. Buttons and levers to open doors or have other functions could be interesting too. *Tech gadgets: Some of these would have seemingly no function to PCs, but may be sold off to wizards and historians trying to learn more about Blackmoor. Others could be weapons, appearing to Mystarans somewhat similar to wands and rods and have charges just like such items. They would be covered with strange runes (Blackmoor letters). * Robots: As from the DA modules and WotI, or perhaps simly golems. This is what they would appear like for the PCs anyway. This is probably a good time to dig out the Meks too... :) Any other thoughts on this? What would be things to avoid when introducing such elements to your campaign?
