A local retailer is selling off a lot of RPG books, and I managed to pick up two in particular that I know for a fact are not 4th edition:Dungeon Master Guide (3rd)Lords of Darkness (3rd)I bought the two of them for very cheap, I think it was $10 or less each. I had differing rationalizations for each:DMG: I figure that tips on running a game as a DM will be useful no matter what system the DMG is for. I guess there is very little "crunch" in here, from what I can see. Most of the statblocks in there look convertible if I wanted to use them. Am I out of line on this?LoD: A couple of the players have expressed a lot of interest in playing in the Realms. I have all 4th FR materials, but I might alter the setting so that the Spellplague did not have the effects listed. I would prefer to set the game in the FR that people grew to love with the books and videogames. LoD seems to be to be primarily a fluff book, and the wealth of information on factions looks invaluable, particularly for <$10. Is this book useful for a 4th game?Thanks in advance, we are all very new to the game, we are just winding down our first adventure, a heavily modified "Keep on the Shadowfell". I have no problem hacking the setting, as I enjoy the creative process. I look forward to picking your brains!~</blockquote>
