(So no, not an outright buy.)It wasn't their first fantasy RPG product though, because the Compleat Alchemist wasn't the only thing they had licensed from Bard Games' properties. They also got Talisanta, and had already published 5 (I believe) books for it the year prior to Alchemist. (And, if you count The Primal Order as a fantasy RPG, then they had also produced at least that and the first supplement the year prior to Alchemist.)It was the only publication under that line though. Can't help you on price, but I don't believe it's worth all that much.
