Post subject:  Hello

I just wanted to say hello and announce my presence here. I have just recently (in the past year) gained interest in Blackmoor. I hope to meet those of you I don't know yet and discuss this setting.

Hi Julian.

Which of the Blackmoor books do you have so far?

:D Hi Julian!

In your case the most interesting question for me: Which ruleset would you use? :)

Also, to understand most of the things we are discussing,
you might want to start reading this here:

(We need really a BM beginners' FAQ.)

Cool enough! :)

I strongly recommend to read both David Ritchie's and my own guide to BM, then. The FFC alone is way too few to run a campaign there that would make sense (holy-water-breathing horses, exploding apples, etc).

Also, I strongly recommend you to get DA1 and the free Supplement II pdf. With that, you really don't need anything more. :)

I may have those. I bought some of the pdf's when it was announced sales would stop. I know I have the whole OD&D run but I am not sure about the DA series. BTW, do you have links to the guides you mentioned?

If you go there's lots of cool stuff, including "The Maiden's Blackmoor" and "OD&D Supplement II".

Not sure if David Ritchie's guide is on there though.

Welcome Julian! :)

I think the others are getting David Ritchie confused with David Ross. David Ritchie co-authored the DA series of modules with Dave Arneson.

David Ross is a legendary Blackmoor fan who did some impressive research on the pre-3E Blackmoor source material. It can be found here:
