[QUOTE="Khoram, post: 6866743, member: 62942"] Just want to jump on the bandwagon here and say "well done!" to TheGlen for the amazing effort that went into this work. Mentzer's Red Box was my introduction to D&D, so The Known World/Mystara has always felt like it captured what I considered the essence of D&D more than Forgotten Realms. I never really got to play much throughout the years, but when 5E came out I decided to DM for my wife and kids. They loved it! We started with the Beginner boxed set, and I felt that module was a perfect introduction. Afterwards, I looked around and people praised Red Hand of Doom so I tried my hand at presenting them a 5E conversion of that. It went well for a bit, but I think it was too big and too complex for beginners and they had no idea where to go or what to do/what was expected of them. We haven't played in 8 months or so now. Recently I began looking around for something easier to get them into, and decided to convert a couple of old B modules (thinking B11 & B12), which got me looking into Mystara/Karameikos again after 30 years. That led me to find this excellent 5E Mystara fan work. :) One question if some of you know: I bought GAZ1 on dndclassics back about 2 years ago, and went to get the thing printed at OfficeMax and ran into copyright trouble. I was under the impression that all of these 20-30 year old pdfs were being sold with the intention that we could make print copies for our own use. Is this not the case? Seems like kind of a stingy oversight on WotC part if so. [/QUOTE]
