Just about a month until this book is released!

If you missed it, the full Table of Contents were shown at a panel at Gary Con back in March, and I transcribed on my blog along with some notes and promotional images showing some of the pages:

"The Making of Original D&D: 1970-1977": Table of Contents

For the latest on the Zenopus Archives, I take a closer look what the "Precursor" documents listed in Table of Contents might be. Speculative, but informed by the listed titles and knowledge of existing documents.

The Making of OD&D Book: What Might the "Precursors" Be?

New promo ad for the book posted by Wizards on Twitter/FB today. Shows two pages of tables from Chainmail plus part of the "Gygax on Armor" article from Panzerfaust. Never though I'd see Chainmail tables used in an ad!
