Dragons at Dawn
#1
So . . . the recent Dave Arneson game day reminded me that I really wanted to get my hands on Dragon's at Dawn. . . but it doesn't seem to be available anywhere anymore. Am I missing something?

No. You're right. It's not. Wink

So in the 6 or so years since I wrote the thing, there has been a steady trickle, and a times a flood of "new" information about those early games. I plan to revise, at some point and have pulled the game from sales until then.

Meanwhile, I've been putting all my efforts into Champions of ZED, which is basically OD&D choc full of Arneson goodness.

Recently got my copy of Champions of ZED. Double thumbs-up to its presentation and contents. Big Grin

Indeed. I assume that research into Champions got Dan looking at some elements of D@D a little differently. It will be interesting to see what he comes up with!

I'd be interested in it if you get to revising it one day.
Is Champions of ZED available anywhere via pdf or such? I did a quick search and didn't catch anywhere. It certainly looks interesting.

Last I knew, Dan had a couple of hardback copies of CoZ left over (from the kickstart or something like that) that he was selling for $25. You might PM and ask about one.
