I knew not of 3.0, 3.5, or 4, and didn't care. I wanted the game I knew and loved in the 1980s. And a few years ago when I found Labyrinth Lord and the Advanced companion, I found the game I played... that most people played. And now you want your shot to put your spin on it. I say great. Go for it. Maybe your flavor will taste a bit more natural to me, or someone else. But never think, for one moment, it is a waste of time.

At least reorganizing the B/X game (with certain additions) into a similar fashion as AD&D (a players manual, DM guide, etc.). But it fell way down on my priority list of projects because:<br /><br />A) I couldn't decide on titles I liked.<br />B) I couldn't see how I could make it more interesting and/or useable than the books that already exist.<br /><br />[also, I figured some of my other projects WOULD be more interesting to people likely to pay me]<br /><br />In all honesty, I (now) think such a product would be a little redundant...and would probably not pursue it myself. HOWEVER, that doesn't mean it isn't worth doing. Just having a copy of your game of choice...all in a singular reference book...is a great idea (what I call "D&D Mine"). And I'm sure there ARE at least some folks who would like such a reference, whose preferred style of play is just what you're describing. But there may not be much of a market for it, unless you can really tart it up with some decent artwork and such.<br /><br />That's what I think. Sorry if that's kind of a damper.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263662621289630246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6707455220399106053.post-10846996211886363002017-07-31T16:13:43.752-04:002017-07-31T16:13:43.752-04:00Think it's a wonderful idea and await the resu...Think it's a wonderful idea and await the result!Brazilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15817651425653741272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6707455220399106053.post-91925768269376398152017-07-31T14:15:06.109-04:002017-07-31T14:15:06.109-04:00As one of those people who wanted this in that pos...As one of those people who wanted this in that post, I applaud you.
