Hi!
With all the talk about home brews and how different rules support or hinder home brewing, I started thinking about the best tools for making your own setting or world. I have for example heard a lot of good comments about A Magical Medieval Society, but are there more resources and tools out there that are top notch for helping to create a fantasy campaign setting (not necessarily D&D or d20)?
My list so far:
1. A Magical Medieval Society
2. Medieval demographics made easy
EDIT: Thanks for the tips so far! I'll add the recommendations to this list:
3. The Writer's Guide to Everyday Life in the Middle Ages: The British Isles from 500 to 1500
4. Dynasties & Demagogues (Atlas)
5. Crime & Punishment (Atlas)
6. Book of the Righteous (Green Ronin)
7. From Stone to Steel (Monkey God)
8. Dungeoncraft from Dragon (link)
9. Put in a secret in everything you design!
10. www.wikipedia.org
11. maps.google.com
12. images.google.com
13. freeonline graph paper
14. World Builder's Guide from TSR (avaliable as PDF from Paizo or RPGnow)
Fill up the list ...!
