I wonder when DF will do non-European fantasy

Banestorm and THS are edge-case settings though. THS is very hard sci-fi with a density of 'background' that makes even hard sci-nuts (like myself) wince, and Banestorm has Christianity with a twist in it. As I've discovered you tend to get 4 types of people playing 'magical fantasy rpgs': Those that hate 'real world' religions in their fantasy, those that take Christianity very seriously, those that don't care, and b-dog. Banestorm puts off the first 2 and doesn't add much to 'D&D' fantasy that the third wants. It's the 'b-dog' type that are drawn to Banestorm, they want to explore Christianity/Catholicism (both modern and ancient) in a quasi-medieval fantasy setting... and that's Banestorm to a 't'.


Personally I'm drawn more to settings like The Madlands. Weird stuff, not just more blehneric 'kitchen sink D&D'.
