[QUOTE="TerraDave, post: 6547181, member: 22260"] Keep in mind that a lazy DM in, say, 1981, would have had access to the following, beyond the core books (and basic and expert D&D rules) B1 In Search of the Unknown D1-2 Descent into the Depths of the Earth D3 Vault of the Drow S1 Tomb of Horrors G1-2-3 Against the Giants B2 The Keep on the Borderlands S2 White Plume Mountain T1 The Village of Hommlet C1 The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan C2 The Ghost Tower of Inverness Q1 Queen of the Demonweb Pits S3 Expedition to the Barrier Peaks X1 The Isle of Dread A1–4 Slavers Series B3 Palace of the Silver Princess I1 Dwellers of the Forbidden City L1 The Secret of Bone Hill U1 The Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh X2 Castle Amber PLUS Deities and Demigods, the Fiend Folio, the World of Greyhawk Folio, PLUS PLUS Monthly issues of Dragon, which had been in print since 1976 (since 75 as the strategic review) ADD, from even earlier, licensed Judges Guild products. They may have been industrious with their games, but DMs also still had some help. [/QUOTE]
