Tell me about these older edition D&D products [list updated: Nov 20/10]

Glantri is a very interesting book because it has the first occurrence of prestige classes for BECMI D&D (and usable in B/X also). I can see why it was listing at $30. It also explains what happened to the spaceship that crashed in Blackmoor and how it will spell the end of the world if the Glantri wizards aren't kept in check.

I've been considering getting it for months. I always balked at the price but one of the Acaeum gurus thought it was an okay purchase at that price since I'd more than likely have to pay for shipping from the States if I bought a copy on Ebay.

I'm glad I have it. Plus, it came with an extra cover and a extra copy of the map; although, those bonus tidbits are is pretty rought shape. Still, I could always send them to someone who have the gazetteer but is missing the cover and/or map.

I also found another Role Aids product I wanted, "Demons: Denizens of Vecheron". (I paid around CAN $7 for it.) Very cool.

Yeah, I'm aware of those deals. I haven't decided what I want yet. However, I'm leaning towards Adventures Set 8.

Went to have lunch with my sister in Bridgeport earlier today. I noticed a sign in Bayard on the way home for a Garage sale.

To my surprise I found thee 2nd Edition monster books and one D&D gazetteer in a lot for only $10. What a find! They aren't exactly in the best shape (the Gazetteer has seen heavy use and the monster books have info written in them) but it's still nice to find some stuff that I can eventually put to use.

I think the Source & Backgrounds Set is the only one available as I tried to put the rest of the sets in my cart and given the following notification: There is not enough product in stock to place in your cart, and this product cannot be backordered.

The MYSTARA Monster Compendium Appendix is a great monster resource regardless of edition. It's my favorite 2e monster reference. You'll get a lot of use out of that book.

Yup, there are some monsters in there that have already caught my attention; Actaeon, Baldanar, Cooltpixy, Darkhood, Drolem Golem, Silver Golem, Hutaakan, Phanaton, Rakasta and the Sollux.

I can't wait for the Pathfinder bestiary comes out so that I can convert them for my homebrew I'm creating. Until then, I'm gonna take a whack at updating them for 4E.

Yeah, it just did that to me too.
