Apr 29, 2004 8:53:23 Well i was thinking about the moon chart.
and from there i thought about a "month" in Krynn.
DLCS mention that there are 4 weeks in a month.
Does it say that there are 28 days in each and every month?
Cause if its like this a year is about 336 days.

But it does say: The Night of the Eye happens on a cycle of 504 days (which is exactly 1 1/2 years).

So that tells you that a year is 336 days.

Actually you have just confirmed that there are 28 days in a month.

It will be really amussing if ill see that one of the DL heroes was born in the 29th or the 30th.

Well...Kitiara was born on the 31st of October. I think she was the only one...but I can't remember. But there hasn't been a 31st of any month for about...8 years, or so.

When SAGA came out...they simplified the previous calendar from TotL which was based off our own real world calendar. SAGA is where it changed to 30 days each month, 360 days a year. (either that or TotL was the odd one out...I don't know for sure)

Apr 30, 2004 4:13:46 I had gone to a 28 day month back during the very first printing of the Dragonlance hardcover release by TSR.

I wanted simplicity so I just made the house-rule which now seems to be the rule. Nothing like being ahead of the curve.
:D

Apr 30, 2004 10:07:43 Well if you want to justify kit's birth just chop off 3 days throughout the year and add them to October.

I mean heck, in the real calandar we have months that are 30 or 31 days and a month that changes from 28 days to 29 days every four years.
