This site seems to have every book, module, supplement ever published along with scans of the covers. They also have current collector values for you packrats. It was nostalgic for me to browse around looking up all the old modules and books."

  1. I know that site by Graspee_Leemoor · · Score: 4, Informative

    I am familiar with the site in question. It is nowhere near as comprehensive as the story suggests. They seem to have all the 1st edition and earlier stuff but hardly any 2nd edition and no 3rd edition.

    This is, I think because it's mainly a site for collectors, and 2nd edition stuff doesn't fetch as high a price as 1st edition stuff. (Although I have seen a lot of 2nd edition stuff fetch lots more than some 1st edition stuff).

    Details of modules etc are confined to differences between printings, rarity, etc.

    This is definately a site for collectors, not players, and people wanting a stroll down memory lane (complete with random encounters) should look elsewhere.

    After some research on my own (too curious.. hehe) I found out that the persons in question are:

    Ed Whitchurch (DM) and
    Eric Sorenson (Dudlee Duerite)
