I didn't use Humour because then we have to argue over how it's spelled but Comedy is the same. As well, are we going to have a systems category like we have a games category or just have both all in the games category?K

HermitFromPluto wrote:One more question. Do the OSRIC modules require ownership of AD&D1E sets to play or is there a master/rules book?
Kersus wrote:OSRIC was an RPG rules system made from the OGL to allow for the publishing of AD&D 1e modules again commercially. So, they're 1e, but they're officially OSRIC as a system/game and OSRIC does differ slightly from AD&D for legal reasons. I'm not the expert on it, but that's the gist of it as I understand it. There are other similar games with commercially available product like Labrynth Lord (BD&D), GORE(BRP), etc... Some are brand new games like Mutant Future and Sorcery & Swordplay. A quick search on lulu for OSRIC will show you what I mean. Some of these are in distribution as well like the XRP OSRIC modules I bought at my FLAGS.K

In Dungeon#83, adventures are referred to as D&D as opposed to AD&D. In that issue one adventure states explicitly it is 3E and the others do not. Are those not explicitly designated as such still AD&D 2nd edition or are they all in fact 3E?
