Comments: The biggest problem with the pages is that they are a bit inaccessible for some of us older D&D Dungeon Masters. I never stopped my Mystara campaign after I started it about 15 years ago, but I stopped buying any new commercial material simply beacuse I had enough to keep up my own campaign. Thus I've never even heard about the changes in corporate policy, the Wrath of Immortals, or the stuff that has been published in the Almanacs. Thus, much of the material required a lot of researching to be understandable. You know, plummeting comets and sinking wizard empires can be a bit baffling all of a sudden.
I propose thet you would include a short introduction on the pages: What kind of a project is this, how consistently you follow a common alternative timeline (is the material supposed to be interrelated?) - In effect: are the pages of any use to people following totally different Mystara timelines?

Comments: Hey, great site. I've always been a big Mystara fan (even before it was Mystara). I'd like to speak up and take credit for a few things I'm not credited with on the site, though.
The third section of the "Black Steel" page which discusses the halfling's use of the clan relic was my work, which I'd originally posted on the AOL message boards. I'd asked Bruce to cut-and-paste the info to the WotC/TSR board since my computer at the time wasn't letting me post to the WotC web-based boards.
The "Red Steel, Shadowed Veil" piece in the "Fiction" section is also my work. It was written in response to a "story ideas from adventures" thread on the Mystara Message Board a looong way back, and set the stage for a short campaign I was planning on running involving the "importing" of Red Steel weaponry to Karameikos.
Perhaps some day, if I ever get the notes in order, I'll write it up for this website.
Thanks a bunch, and keep up the good work!

Comments: The only minor complaint would be that some of the information falls under different categories, so (very) occassionally I have to do a little hunting (if, for example, I'm looking for all information pertaining to Alphatia, including immortals, spells, etc)... apart from that, excellent work! Have a gold star :)

Comments: Love the information, despise the site layout/graphical look.
Mystara is one of my favorite worlds to play on. I wish I had all the infomation you had here, and the official status...I would make a really nice looking site for it.
Instead, this site, and official WoTC site, is the second worst looking site of hem all (you can't get much worse than the spelljammer site).
Anyway, I just wanted to say that the info is great, but the layout needs some major help.

Comments: I tried to get on the message board but was unable to. Please try to fix this problem. Other than that, I got a hard on when I saw the page. I didnt think it would be this thorugh and easy to get to considering the contents of most of the Mystara campain. I would like to hear more about the status of the D&D gaming systems and would like to be involved more with its progress. Thanks chuck!

Comments: Hey, just gotta say i loved that campaign setting. throughout high school i ended up buying almost all of the gazeteers and boxed sets. i was pretty dissapointed when they tried to switch it over to AD&D 2ED. they didn't do a very good job. haven't heard much about it lately. Also, why the heck did they sink Alphatia into the hollow world? well anyway, i love your site. Keep up the good work!

Just a short note from England to say I enjoyed your pages. I stopped playing D&D about 10 years ago (I was a DM for a Mystara campaign), and chanced upon this site while surfing. It brought back a lot of good memories. I didn't know that the Mystara campaign had been discontinued. That's a shame as it was the most in-depth campaign I ever used, and I found that the Gazetters especially were a bloody good read on their own! Are there any plans to have the material in the gazetters scanned in to enable me to download the material and enjoy it once more?
There seems to be a problem in e-mailing this form. I had to copy and paste the lot.

Comments: We just started a new D&D campaign with 3E d20 using Mystara as a background. I felt the same sense of wonder I did in those early games! Thanks for all this great background material organized at one general site. I can't believe all this was out there and I never knew!

Comments: I would like to see more material concerning the original Gazetteer-era, that is pre-WotI materials, as this setting is best RPG-setting ever, but WotI screwed it up bigtime. Playing the WotI-campaign was great, though :-)

Comments: This is hands-down the best gaming page on the web. I especially like the home-brewed rules and games mechanics, and the mix of systems they support(OD&D, AD&D 2E, D&D 3E).
Keep up the good work.

Comments: I've always thought that some of the ways you place information on the site was less then intuitive, but it's a great resource and I'm not really here to complain. I just wanted to let you know that your link on the Main Page at the top regarding joining the MML still points to Leroy's Page even though he no longer has that information at his site. Also, I'm currently looking for a copy of the MML archive, and I'm having trouble finding it. richard

Comments: It is aprent that the current world has developed from the origonal "gaz" mags that where released by TSR
I have spent the last ten years of my spare time developing the same base information into 100's of years of political shiting and adventure based social and economic changes, that have kept a fair number of players guessing.
I glad to see that i'm not the ony one who got sucked into the ever changing world
cause and efect got away on me !!!!
whish i had the time to put all my stuff on the web too

Comments: Well, I believe it could use a little more organization. As it is the sight is little more than a hodgepodge of posted articles. Try to get a standard format for all of the articles and format them for html better. This site should contain a good library of publication-quality works for Dungeons and Dragons 3rd Edtion to help in Mystaran campaigns.
Although I wouldnt recommend snazzy html work you need something better than this, to be honest the colors clash and the design is quite poor. Make it look professional because it is official and you want it to be easy to use and attractive. Add some good pictures and artwork as well.
