The previous post has been updated with a review of The World of Greyhawk (Folio).

I was also 12, about to turn 13. Autumn of 1988, my soon to be step-brother bought me the Mentzer Red Box. My first attempt was with him playing two characters - halfling brothers named Bodor and Fodor Baggins. And he bullied me into letting Fodor be a magic-user. I later gathered a couple...

One of the long awaited items on this list is finally here! The World of Greyhawk Folio!!!!!!!

Homebrew for most of my gaming years. Forgotten Realms for one short campaign (maybe 3-4 months). Ravenloft for about a 6 months-ish. Dragonlance for a few sessions (the party got misted off to Ravenloft and never made it out). That's about it, at least for D&D settings. But, my homebrews...

Let's see... BECMI - I started D&D with the Mentzer "Red Box" Basic Set and continued playing it for around 5 years. AD&D 2nd Edition - I skipped 1E and went straight to 2E from Basic. This one I played for about 4 years before taking a break from D&D to play World of Darkness and Palladium...

The World of Greyhawk (Folio) Originally published May, 1980 Version being read and reviewed: The World of Greyhawk by Gary Gygax This is one of those products that I didn't think we'd ever see in PDF. But, lo and behold, it popped up today, so, here I am, writing this review. This is the...

S3: Expedition to the Barrier Peaks Originally published February, 1980 Version being read and reviewed: S3: Expedition to the Barrier Peaks by Gary Gygax First things first - SPOILER ALERT!!!! Still here? Ok, here we go. EN World ate the lengthy review I had typed up so - short and...

Just one new item today, this one for Amazing Engine. AM2: For Faerie, Queen, and Country

I honestly had no idea there were so many Star Frontiers products.

The non-D&D trend continues with three more Star Frontiers PDFs and...*drum roll*... Amazing Engine! SFAC3: Zebulon's Guide to Frontier Space SFKH1: Dramune Run SFKH2: Mutiny on the Eleanor Moraes AM1: Amazing Engine System Guide

The Wrath of the Immortals set is, in my opinion, much better. I hope they get that up in PDF soon.

My all-time favorite D&D book ever. I love this thing. I got it new when it first came out and have had a few copies over the years as others were lost or wore out.

Three new Star Frontiers titles today - SF3: Sundown on Starmist, SF4: Mission to Alcazzar, and the Star Frontiers Referee's Screen and Mini-Module (which is free). Also, the D&D Rules Cyclopedia is now available in print (along with SF3, SF4, and In the Cage: A Guide to Sigil).

I have been looking for something like those maps for years! Thank you so much for posting them!

I have done that very thing, actually. Thundarr was one inspiration among many, but the setting was post-apocalyptic Earth and featured orc motorcycle gangs prowling what's left of the highways and ruined cities infested with aberrations and undead.

While I think only four classes would be a bit constrictive, about a dozen is the sweet spot for me. A class, to me, is a fairly broad concept that can then be narrowed to specific niches with subclasses. The only reason, IMO, for a new class is if there is a broad concept (say, psionics) that...

The Rogues Gallery Originally published January 1980 Version being read and reviewed: The Rogues Gallery by Brian Blume with Dave Cook and Jean Wells This is basically a big book of tables of NPCs of every class (AD&D 1st Edition specifically). While interesting, the intro which explains the...
