That might be a good place to begin work on a 'standard' list.Dennis Laffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053699552003336733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829093857574761981.post-91673343174099985682011-04-04T04:45:16.052+01:002011-04-04T04:45:16.052+01:00Not OD&D.

I'm trying to release supplements that are edition neutral, so I spend a lot of time thinking about what I need.<br /><br />I'm working on alchemy, and if there's one thing that varies between fantasy games, it's skill systems (hence 'OSR Rosetta Stone' on my blog). I'm extremely interested in this series, and am just commenting so you know that this is actual valuable contributions that will affect what I produce.-Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02331863932906631618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829093857574761981.post-25535902199478010872011-04-03T14:51:35.493+01:002011-04-03T14:51:35.493+01:00Me too.
