IIRC, someone asked Reynolds about Fate of Istus and he dryly remarked something to the effect of "For some reason the last chapter or so of my copy have the pages ripped out" |

Age of Worms has one of its adventure components set in the Cauldron region, further tying it to Greyhawk prior to the Savage Tide.
IIRC, WOTC mandated that the city of Greyhawk had to be the generic ... |

One of the earlier issues had another 1E adventure set after the end of the series called "The Last Slave Lord" or something similar. Throw in the "A0" module in the Against of the Slave Lords reprin ... |

Apropos of this discussion, I was recently going through all my old Planescape material, and the supplement "On Hallowed Ground" gave locations for a number of the Oerth deities, including Trithereon. ... |

So... I plunked down the $10 to get access. I did a preliminary survey of the Greyhawk material - which wasn't a lot, but there were a few surprises. (Most of the material shows up in the later issu ... |

I'm curious - what problems arise (other than conflicting with the 2E ordering of the supermodules) with setting GDQ prior to the other two?

I was just reading it myself recently - the text indicates that the sacking of Seaton happened around the same time of the U1-3 modules.
I had always made the assumption that the original Slave Lor ... |
