Lots of great old school and 3E stuff from these folks. I highly recommend pretty much all of it, with few exceptions.

Yeah. Have a couple of their books and have found them very detailed, well thought out, and an overall excellent resource. Very worth the $$

[alcyone]

Yeah, I wish they'd do a conversion of their 1-on-1 adventures for C&C, my conversions take too long, but I suppose it's too much to hope given that they are already 3.5 and 4e D&D.

I'm really trying to control my impulse game spending. Is there anything here that is really, truly extra spiffy?

[Go0gleplex]

The one that really stood out among the three I have is "A Magical Society: Silk Road" which deals with trade and trade goods. I didn't see it on their site as a book but RPGNow has it in PDF for a decent price.

If you dig Monster Books, their Monster Geographica books are pretty good. They each contain 200 monsters. Plus Expeditious Retreat is very OGL friendly.

Darnit, I already have all that stuff

But all their "Magical Society" books are definitely must-haves for anyone who isn't some kind of medieval history professor. It helps that the books are specifically written for gamers, so it's a much smoother and more fun experience to read these books than something like Wikipedia or an actual textbook.

Agreed. I have the original and am considering picking up the new edition, considering this sale.

+1 on that, I like all the Magical society stuff, but silk road is top notch.
