I was mildly tempted to pick up a hard copy of OSRIC 3, but the PoD tome is $90. The pdf is free. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I mean, I can get hardcover reprints of all three AD&D core books for $69 from wizards.

Thanks to the AD&D DM’s Guide, I know that 16 gnomes can work at once on a ten foot wide tunnel through hard rock and can excavate 480 cubic feet in an 8 hour shift.

I won’t count how many times this has come up in my games.

AD&D DM’s Guide

Of course “conducting the game” is on page 110, after important things like Construction and Sieges.

Poking around the AD&D GM’s Guide definitely has advice I feel is very counter to a lot of neo-old school thinking.

“The final word, then, is the game. Read how and why the system is as if is, follow the parameters, and then cut portions as needed to maintain excitement.”

This is really interesting. A poll from the Different Worlds magazine from May 1986. #ADnD ranks 27th & #DnD ranks 37th in a list of top 40 #TTRPG.
