Seconded. This is my biggest frustration with the RPG industry to this day. :( I also used to be frustrate about edition wars, but I guess those days are over :) Havard

I am probably to blame for this. Ivid is using my maps as a basis for some of his works, and my maps are based on the assumption that Blackmoor exists in the pre-history of Mystara. :) Havard

If you are going to change things, you might as well make the changes severe. Still, this is a fantasy setting we are talking about. If the players are set on it, there is no reason not to have changing everything back possible, should the players want to. I am certainly planning on having...

Updating RA's Publication Timeline for Blackmoor: 1972 - D. Arneson begins his Blackmoor campaign using altered rules for 1:1 Chainmail and its Fantasy Supplement. Arneson and G. Gygax collaborate and G. Gygax begins his Greyhawk campaign shortly thereafter. 1974 - D&D first receives wide...

*bump* Just rereading this book now. While it certainly has its flaws, as pointed out above, Dungeons of Castle Blackmoor has a lot of curiously interesting details scattered around in the book. For instance, the "timeline" in the beginning of the book, indictating the different ages through...

So its not a symbol to identify who are Autobots and who are Decepticons? ;) Havard

This is part of so many products, including the widely loved Gaz3, but at the same time it is an element which is pretty easy to ignore. I toyed with the idea of replacing the Radience with an old Nithian Pyramid, linking it to the Nithian era rather than Blackmoor for instance... Havard

Thank you so much for mentioning this program. I think this is what I have been looking for for years :) Havard

Thanks for posting this! It will be very helpful for converting the City of the Gods to 4E. :) Havard

Captain Scarbelly is still alive IMC as well! The PCs were cast as piratey types and have surprisingly little intent in killing their enemies if they can defeat them through other means. Having Scarbelly alive turned out to be good thing as he is the only one ever to have navigated a vessel out...

Good quote mhensley! I'm not sure how keen I am on yet another class/level based system, but if Chris Pramas is behind it, chances are its going to be brilliant :) Havard

They are two quite different sourcebooks. The Player's Guide includes 3 new classes, 4 Prcs, new skills, feats, spells and equipment/magic items. What I find most interesting about the Player's Guide though are the last 4 chapters going into more details about the churches, noble houses and...

Less than one month left to get the Blackmoor pdfs you are missing now: Havards Blackmoor Blog: One Month Left? (Sorry if I sound like a salesman B-) ) Havard

Yeah. Not sure what to think really... Havard

Aha! That kind of a point B-) In that case, thanks! :) Havard

Uhm... are you criticizing my posts or the ZGG press release? Havard

Ooops! Fixed! Thanks for the heads up! :) Havard

Looks like the final word has not been said about this issue. Zeitgeist Games issued their own press release on the situation today: Havards Blackmoor Blog: ZEITGEIST STRIKES BACK? Havard

My understanding is that the agreement between Adkinson and Arneson at this point primarily concerned the rights to D&D, not Blackmoor, although it is not unlikely that the agreement between ZGG and WotC over Blackmoor may have been part of the deal. My latest blog entry has more on my...

The 3E and 4E sourcebooks are fairly similar, thought he latter is better organized IMO. Havard
