[QUOTE="Gorg, post: 9605165, member: 7029501"] Thanks! Have yet to see it come up on Ebay, but oh well. Doesn't really sound like one to run, just for the completist that spends all my money, lol. For funsies, I'm putting those 4 B/X characters (and 2 more!) thru MaximumMayhem's mini dungeon #1 Necromancers something something, lol. Really cool adventure! As someone who hasn't played any TSR era D&D since 3e came out, I was flabbergasted at how much loot there was! Then I remembered: XP is primarily awarded for treasure recovered, not monsters stomped. No wonder my old DM is stuck in "separate the players from their loot at every turn" mode... My modern sensibilities are revolting at the limited spell lists included with B/X. So many where's this? and what, no that? I now remember WHY we eagerly scoured every new rulebook, splatbook, and campaign setting for more spells, lol. Once they level out of the Basic rulebook, I'll switch them over to 1 or 2e for further use- if they live. (the dungeon level is wicked!) The vast majority of my modules are for AD&D- or 3e/5e- not B/X. [/QUOTE]
