It's rare for an OSR product to cost more than about $35 and this is more than twice that. Plus, it's a retread of D20 material that quite a lot of us already have and, as The Iron Goat rightly says above, converting monsters to OD&D isn't exactly hard.James Maliszewskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00341941102398271464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6886547051691715141.post-79846898601025480072011-06-02T04:03:20.944-07:002011-06-02T04:03:20.944-07:00If I were too rich, I could afford to buy the book...If I were too rich, I could afford to buy the book.Stefan Poaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08192911890556534923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6886547051691715141.post-89137418726589525352011-06-02T03:10:25.497-07:002011-06-02T03:10:25.497-07:00I wanted to buy it, but it was too expensive.

Converting monsters to 0E or B/X stats is easy enough. It's the concept that's important, not the slight differences in the stats.<br /><br />That said, I wouldn't mind having a copy, but I guess I just don't want it bad enough.The Iron Goathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15839364742884404019noreply@blogger.com
