OSR Shopping Run at LuLu, lend me your awesomeness!
Posted: Sun Dec 23, 2012 6:44 am
So, once the first set of moneys come in from the sale of Dyson's Delves over on LuLu, I'll have enough put aside not only for my internet connectivity via the hardcover release, but I'll also have a couple of hundred sitting there from the softcover release. So instead of just pocketing that money and running amok, I figured I should toss some of this filthy lucre to the other OSR authors out there... Also, I need to order a small batch (5-10) of Dyson's Delves, so I might as well throw in some other books to save on shipping with one big order (because shipping this crap in Canadia is stupid expensive).
So far my shopping list is:
So, I'm choosing to avoid megadungeons (because I have enough of my own), individual adventures / modules (again, I have all the ones I write, and the ones I've listed above I have ulterior reasons to purchase), and Retro RPGs that involve multiple volumes (I like my RPGs being single books).
So, what else should I add to my cart, and more importantly, why?
So far my shopping list is:
- Dyson's Delves (obviously since this is why I'm making the order in the first place)
- Basic Fantasy (maybe the perfect bound edition, but I do love hardcovers)
- Labyrinth Lord (even though I'm a hardcore B/X fan, I want to support Daniel for bringing an OGL version of it to life)
- Labyrinth Lord AEC (because really, this IS how I played AD&D back in the day)
- Companion Expansion (looks cool)
- Advanced Adventures Compendium 1 (even though I write adventures primarily so I'm already swimming in them)
- Advanced Adventures Compendium 2 (but also because I think Joe and Suzi are f___ing awesome)
- Dark Dungeons (because the price is right, he redid the proficiencies really well, and I love B/X and BECMI retroclones)
- Usherwood Adventures Expansion (because this is the kind of stuff I love - just wish it was hardcover)
- Theorems & Thaumaturgy (again, the stuff I love - give me them sweet house rules!)
- Blood & Treasure (I like his work in general, and want to support it)
