Breakdaddy takes a break...

Post by Breakdaddy »

After three straight hours of adventure-crafting last night, I think I've got a really nice adventure partially in hand. I am not going to mess with it tonight much and approach it tomorrow with fresh eyes. Having the right tools makes all the difference....

You like that, you'd love my AD&D 1st edition DMG and PHB... those still have the new shine on the covers. They look like theyre straight off the gamestore shelf.

Well...I do have to say mine is due to amount of use. Best Cities book I've found yet though.

No Engineering Dungeons. Alas. Oh well, I kick your Cities book in the nuts because my copy is the small press original version, before released by Chaosium. Nyah nyah.

I need to reacquire a copy of Cities.

EDIT: Hey, what's the difference between Cities and Runequest Cities?

Engineeering dungeons is indeed being used, it just didnt fit in the pic, neither did my Savage Worlds Fantasy World Builder, also present on the table. CITIES... I figured youd have a collectible version of that.

Some of this stuff is less used, but no less useful. Engineering Dungeons is there on the left...

Good looking set of tomes you've got there, BD. Personally, I'd swap out some of those d20 things, but we've each got our own methods to madness. Strangely, one book I've always liked has been the SpaceMaster stuff for world building... like filling in buildings. It's weird, but never held me back.

Thanks, chief. The D20 builders are much less used than my main books but I picked em up during the 5$ sale and have gotten good use out of them.

Online game with Andy and some of his buds. Probably just a one shot before he kicks off his online game.

They're out of their damned minds. Its an awesome resource but that's a hefty price even for this fine book.
