what ESDs should I buy?

[blackshirt5]

Specifically, I'm gonna try to add a Spelljammer/Planescape feeling to my world. I was thinking of picking up Dragonstar for this.

Is it doable? Is it feasible? Or am I insane?

P.S. MY question of the day for today is this(feel free to remove it, mods, if it's completely inappropriate, but I didn't think it was): Have you ever drank so much water, you've taken a bathroom break, lost so much salt you've hallucinated, and then thought you saw the Great Gazoo from the Flintstones committing unspeakable rituals dedicated to Shub-Niggurath; and afterwards, were you chased around by an axe-wielding Trix Rabbit?

It has a mre Traveller feeling than Spelljammer feeling.
I thought it was very good and enjoy the setting very much.

Dragonstar isn't bad, but if you're looking for Spelljammer, you might want to check our Dungeon/Polyhedron issue 92, which has a Spelljammer conversion. There's a ton of stuff left unconverted, but if you're creative enough, you should be able to resurrect ships that are old favorites.

Mmm, no.

Yeah, I've got that Polyhedron already, but I'm having a hard time finding Spelljammer stuff for sale on the net. If you could gimme a good site besides hitpointe.com to buy OOP stuff, that'd be great(I'm also gonna look into monster books, and planescape stuff).

You can try Noble Knight Games

Or Dragons Trove Games

I've dealt with both and their very reliable and fast.

Well, there's always the ESD's available at WWW.SVGames.com. Otherwise, good luck, I don't know where to point you. Those books have been out of print now for something like 15 years!

Alright, I might just have to get the ESDs, burn em to a CD, and then print em out at Middlesex.

Dragonstar felt a bit bland for a setting. OTOH, It's meant to incorporate **all** D&D settings into it, so it's not detailed to the point where you have to rewrite your current campaign.

Crazy ideas back at you: Space 1889 and GURPS Steampunk. You might get away with the technology and guns rules in the DMG, but would have to scrape together some info on clockwork / mechanical fiddlybits.

Mmm ... my new away message ...

I think Dragonstar is an excellent setting and I recommend it very much. Integrating Planescape or Spelljammer like things into it should be easy....
