... if OSRIC printings are of any interest to the Acaeum, but in case anyone cares, Black Blade have nearly sold through their print run of the red endpaper OSRIC.   I understand that a new and slightly different printing (v2.21 or v2.3) is being prepared, and you can as always still buy the v2.1 version from Lulu.

I bought mine somewhat recently. I had the lulu version, but the BB hardcover is awesome! Buy one or three!


And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

Buy them for your friends, your enemies, your wives, your players, your DM, for random people on the street.  Spread the love :D :D

Shipping's broken, the web site's broken too (vendor folded); we're working on a complete update to the web site, but it'll still be awhile:  email Jon @  [email protected] and he'll get you a very accurate shipping quote (and pack your books so that they'll survive an F5 tornado).

I have both paperback and hardback versions of OSRIC.  I haven't checked....where is the notation to say the books came from Black Blade or Lulu?

Mine is not at hand at the moment.  I know that the black blade logo is on it pretty clearly but can't remember exactly where.  But the easiest way to tell would be the red end papers.  If you have red end papers, you have the black blade version.

Comparison-wise, James' post at Dreams of Mythic Fantasy should help:  http://dreamsofmythicfantasy.blogspot.c ... print.html
