In my campaign I avoid these two areas ore alter them: they are (as you may imagine) the Big Rubble and Dragon Pass.
In my campaign the Rubble is not inhabited by mostali or Aldryami, but merely by Trolls, bandits and chaotics (let alone the 'newts!). I think that future HW supplemets should provide us with a different picture of the Rubble, because its conception is undoubtedly aged. Dragon Pass, with Delecti, Beast Valley, Ethilrist, the Grazers, Dragon's Eye, Cragspider etcetera is a sort of big Big Rubble. OK, its the crucible of the HW: I like some themes (the Seshnelan advance, the Lunar expansion, the Dragon awakening) but I don't like its picture, with the many groups divided in precise boundaries (except for raids) but light-years apart for what concern mythical past and racial interaction. It's Gloranthan-speaking too much, IMO. In my campaign I have not dared alter DP, but I don't visit the area. I prefer use it as a distant background for local effects and rumours.
