I have a new post about an author I really love - Dennis Sustare.
I knew he did a lot of games, but I recently found out from Martin at Daddy Rolled a 1 that Dennis Sustare wrote the Druid character class in OD&D. How cool is that?

Session 5.0 in Castle Amber. The party meets a Unicorn, the Wild Hunt, and some magic Squirrels. I also took a chance on using Chainmail rules with OSE, which worked nicely and really turned the tide with the Wild Hunt.

What a great resource!

A stack of the AD&D 2e Complete Handbooks going to the shelves. The spine lettering hints at the graphical changes over their long run. I have the definitive printing photo reference to the Brown books; link in the comments. Enjoy! -Wayne
