Tell me about these older edition D&D products [list updated: Nov 20/10]

[Knightfall]

Yup, there are some monsters in there that have already caught my attention; Actaeon, Baldanar, Cooltpixy, Darkhood, Drolem Golem, Silver Golem, Hutaakan, Phanaton, Rakasta and the Sollux.

I can't wait for the Pathfinder bestiary comes out so that I can convert them for my homebrew I'm creating. Until then, I'm gonna take a whack at updating them for 4E.

Sounds interesting. While I'm not into 4e, I'd definitely be interested in seeing your Pathfinder conversions when the PFRPG Bestiary comes out. ( I really want that book and the PFRPG core book. ) You'll be posting your conversions here on EN World, right?

It'll be a slow process, but yeah I can post 'em up.

Monsters aren't one of my strong points, so working on the baddies will help to get any of the kinks out of my system. It would be nice to be able to master monster creation and conversion.

It's picture time once again...

BIRTHRIGHT Cities of the Sun

Demons: Denizens of Vecheron​

Hmm, I need to find a better binder for the monster folio.

Dragons and Dungeon...

Dragon #59, #76, #81, #100 , #105, #107, #113, #126, #127, #136, #180; Dungeon #41​

Dungeon #41 is great! It has a Greyhawk and Spelljammer adventure in it.

Man, talk about your strolls down memory lane.

I used to have every Birthright produc up until a certain point.t. Then my parents heard about D&D from neighbors and how it corrupts the young. They decided to take all my D&D material and burn it. Boy, was I pissed. They told me that I wouldn't be allowed to own any D&D products as long as I lived under their roof. I couldn't wait to move out!

I'm still rebuilding the collection I used to have, only costing me a lot more now!

 

[M.L. Martin]

All three VRMHCs? That's almost too much of a great thing. Taking too much van Richten at once has been known to cause devilish DM scheming, 2nd Edition nostalgia, and a tendency towards overwrought gothic declamations.

DRAGON #113 was one of the first two issues of DRAGON I ever owned, and #126 has a bunch of cool articles, including AD&D and Marvel Super Heroes stats for Dracula himself.

Dude, I'd have disowned my parents if they had tried that!!!

I guess I was lucky. They asked me about the game, but they didn't judge it based on rumors. The fact that the game made me more interested in history, mythology, and reading/writing in general was a big plus in my parents eyes. ( I played up the math angle too. )

I do know how that feels. I made the mistake of selling my 2e collection about 10 years ago. I didn't really have a choice at the time but I wish I hadn't done it.

Still, I've been lucky with some of the books I've been able to find at the prices I've paid.

Bwah-hah-hah!

I haven't really looked at the DRAGON Magazines yet. I'm keen on starting with #100 since that has a Gord the Rogue story in it as well as a Pages from the Mages article.

I'm actually heading out to hunt for other older DRAGON Magazines.

Later,

A number of these are Creature Catalog in 3.5 conversions. Might help with your Pathfinder updates (and the Drolem is apparently about the same as the Ironwyrm golem in the 3.5 Draconomicon).

My parents weren't perfect, but when they heard D&D corrupts the young they looked into it for themselves and realised that was rubbish.

I guess I should appreciate them a bit more!
