Within the broad parameters give in the Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Volumes, YOU are creator and final arbiter.

Thanks for the heads-up, Treebore. Pretty sure there's at least one or two I'd be likely to make use of.
Yeah, I go the boxed sets.
Strangely the Whiterock PDF now comes up in my account 4 times and gives 20 downloads each.

Download ALL FOUR - - there are four books - - silly way to name them, but if you don't have all four you're missing something - -four different color-coded books.
That's why there are four entries - - as far as the 20 downloads each - - can only theorize, but some of the files are HUGE, so maybe they're taking into account the dl will fail more often.

Wow! Thanks for the heads up Treebore. Anyone have any suggestions on what to buy? I have the Gazeteer in hard copy as well as "The Adventure Begins" and "The Vault of the Iron Overlord".
I plan on buying the PDF of the Gazeteer as well as "Castle Whiterock" and "The Adventure Continues". Any other suggestions for good ones to get?

Yeah, I just got this in my email, and picked up the whole lot. Why not right?
The whole lot as in all 50 or so of them? Wow! I know they won't be available for much longer but I don't think that I would get all of them.
Does anyone know if we will still be able to download the ones we have bought after December 31st? Or will the download links be removed from our purchases from that date?

Only the sales stop. Those downloads are bought before the end of the year, so it doesn't matter when they actually get DLed.

I really hope that is the case. Can anyone confirm what Treebore is saying? Maybe I'll send an e-mail to RPG Now to double check. I'm slightly concerned as I don't think I would be able to download everything I am going to buy in time otherwise.

I'm not certain about this either. I thought that when something was removed from the site, it was removed in every capacity, downloads included.
Could you let us know what reply you get to that email?

Anyone notice that the Etherscope line of products doesn't seem to be part of the sale?
Yep, I noticed that.
I also didn't notice a d20 logo on the cover image.
