Though written using the Labyrinth Lord rules, its contents are all easily convertible to any version of old school D&D. I've reviewed the first four issues on this blog and they're all excellent and, above all, useful, filled with great adventures, imaginative rules variants, and other articles of interest to players and referees alike. And I adore the art. If you've never had a chance to read an issue, take this opportunity to download the latest issue for free and see what you've been missing.
It's a good issue overall, though I wasn't fond of the adventure ("Shame of the Shaman"). Loved the "Petty Gods" preview, though, and the two "Monster Clubs."
ReplyDeleteNice stuff! Thanks for the tip.
ReplyDeleteYay! My god is in the preview! I love the art for him - makes him quite creepy! My wife is smiling in the "that's nice, dear" way as I rave about how cool it is to see Mespilus in the flesh, as it were.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip, would have missed this one without it. After this preview I can't wait for Petty Gods to come out.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for the shout out James. Over 1000 downloads and counting. Exciting times.
