Speaking of DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, (reviewed very briefly in PF 62), here we have a supplement to that popular set of fantasy campaign rules, published by Tactical Studies Rules. Physically it matches the original volumns of D&D and was written by Gygax and Kuntz. It can best be described by quoting from the forward, by Gary Gygax: "there are new characters, new abilities, more spells to use, a horde of new monsters, heaps of new magical treasure, and various additions to the suggestions and rules for adventuring above and below the ground..." Fantasy being what it is, it appears that there will never be an end to the development of fresh ideas, and this booklet is what we hope will be the first of a long series of periodic supplements to add to your enjoy- ment of DUNGEONS & DRAGONS. There will be at least one more, for Dave Arneson, coauthor of the original work is currently in the catacombs beneath his tower preparing the second supplement. Among other things this work will reveal to a breathlessly waiting world many of the horrid things which are part of the 'Blackmoor' campaign and how to make it just as horrible in your own game. Meanwhile, find out what the devious minds behind 'Greyhawk Castle' have been dreaming up..." There are 56 pages, plus covers and plenty of Greg Bell's excellent illustrations. The price is $5.00 and is also available from PANZERFAUST. More Reviews
