D&D 1E 1e The World of Greyhawk...reprint WotC

[MrHemlocks]

Now that WotC is reprinting and making pdfs of many of the older D&D stuff has there been any word on reprinting/pdf of The World of Greyhawk 1e? I started playing roleplaying games after reading the Hobbit in 1979. Soon after I started playing D&D and bought my first ever rpg books...DM guide, players handbook and monster manual. We needed a campaign world for adventures and soon after bought The World of Greyhawk.

Now if WotC reprints The World of Greyhawk, along with more core 1e/2e books and adventures, than my gaming quest will be finished. I will become a happy gamer once more while enjoying the games of my youth with friends and most of all my children.

I'm with you. My World of Greyhawk set is very fragile.

Yes! This would be great!

The absence of setting reprints, along with BD&D reprints, is a glaring omission. I bet we see both in the next wave of reprints. (I'd bet on the original Forgotten Realms or Planescape rather than the Greyhawk folio, though.)

I have to say, I lean more towards wanting Oriental Adventures.

If they re-do the original folio, I am in for a copy. The boxed set did not do much for me..The Darlene maps, and how they would be represented are the crucial part of any GH setting reprint AFAIC.

I'd love them to reprint Fiend Folio, but they've already reprinted one 1E supplement now. My guess is we see BD&D or 2E supplements before more 1E stuff.

I gotta say, I'd be happy to see them do it!

This is what happened to my original WoG books:

The WoG books were among the best works of Gary Gygax.

That is a truly heart-wrenching sight for any true WoG fan. I feel your pain.
