Last week saw the release of the AD&D 1st Edition Core books in POD at DrivethruRPG.
Monster Manual
Players Handbook
Dungeon Masters Guide
This is a pretty big deal really. This means for the first time ever 1st Edition will remain perpetually in print.
Today even more 1st Edition goodness was released.
A1 Slave Pits of the Undercity
A3 Assault on the Aerie of the Slave Lords
H4 The Throne of Bloodstone
Soon every adventure of my "Come Endless Darkness" campaign will see print.
Looking at H4 it is only $12 for a POD version. No idea if it has the giant fold out map (I highly doubt it), but you get the PDF with it and can printout the map on multiple pages if you need.
Throne of Bloodstone has always gone for top dollar on eBay. I am not sure what this will do to the aftermarket since there are many that will want that map. I do know that in many cases when PDFs of TSR/WotC products first came up the aftermarket took a hit.
I still have have a copy of H4. I had a couple in fact adn sold one a while back for 30 bucks.
I played Throne back in the day. Soon after it came out in fact. It is a killer module and it took us all summer to complete it but it was worth it. I played it the first summer I was back from college. So in between working two jobs I tried to squeeze as much gaming in as I could.
I would love to use this as the capstone to my Come Endless Darkness game, but I need to figure out how to get the characters there.
