[QUOTE="Nellisir, post: 6120099, member: 70"] Yesterday was Swords & Wizardry Appreciation Day, a not-quite-last minute assembly of blogs around the internet posting anything at all related to the S&W game. Personally, I thought ten or fifteen blogs would participate. Maybe thirty. Wrong. The last number I heard was one hundred and forty. That's a lot of blogs. There are new rules, classes, races, spells, advice, settings, campaigns, adventures, reviews, stories, and more. Somewhere in the melange I saw rules for carousing go by, which I definitely have to go back and find. The heart of this swirling storm of chaos, and the place to go for links to the various blogs, is Tenkar's Tavern: [URL]http://www.tenkarstavern.com/[/URL] Also check out Mythmere's Blog, by Matt Finch - the guy that wrote Swords & Wizardry: [URL]http://swordsandwizardry.blogspot.com/[/URL] 2,000 Coppers is "The Home of the S&W Appreciation Day Blogroll", which I take to mean that if you find this thread in November, you can go there and find links to the participating blogs in the sidebar, without having to dig through 7. months of other stuff: [URL]http://www.2000coppers.com/[/URL] S&W is a stripped down, streamlined ruleset based on the original D&D rules, which have fed every iteration of D&D so far. There's material here for just about every game in existence, from Basic to Pathfinder, and 5e looks to be very compatible.
