The Great Glacier is an accessory for the 2nd edition of the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, published in 1992.
The module describes "a bitterly cold wilderness of ice and snow", and outlines the conditions characters experience in this type of environment. [1] The product describes the cultures of the three tribes, together called the "Ulutiun", or the people of the Great Glacier. [1] These hardy people "live in scattered small villages", the largest of which is only 1,500 strong. [1]
According to John Setzer
The components of this product include a 96-page booklet and a map of the standard [ Forgotten Realms ] type with a scale of 1 inch = 30 miles, allowing it to fit with other maps in the Forgotten Realms series. Printed on the cover folder is a short but useful list of Ulutiun terms. Some of these are real tongue twisters: can you say “Innugaakalikurit”? [1]
The Great Glacier was written by Rick Swan and published by TSR. [1]
John Setzer reviewed the module in a 1993 issue of White Wolf Magazine . [1] He stated that the product met Forgotten Realms standards, and was a good product, but didn't rise to the level of greatness. [1] Overall, he rated the module 4 out of a possible 5. [1]
Forgotten Realms is a campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) fantasy role-playing game. Commonly referred to by players and game designers as "The Realms", it was created by game designer Ed Greenwood around 1967 as a setting for his childhood stories. Several years later, it was published for the D&D game as a series of magazine articles, and the first Realms game products were released in 1987. Role-playing game products have been produced for the setting ever since, in addition to novels, role-playing video game adaptations, comic books, and the film Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.
The flexibility of the Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) game rules means that Dungeon Masters (DM) are free to create their own fantasy campaign settings. For those who wanted a pre-packaged setting in which to play, TSR, Wizards of the Coast (WotC), and other publishers have created many settings in which D&D games can be based; of these, the Forgotten Realms, an epic fantasy world, has been one of the most successful and critically acclaimed settings. Many campaign settings include standard sword and sorcery environments, while others borrow Asian, Central American, swashbuckling, horror and even space-travel themes.
