Dungeons of Dread is the reprinting / repackaging of the classic modules S1 - S4. With the exception of the cover art for S1 - Tomb of Horrors (bad scan?), it's a nicely put together package of some kick ass modules.
There was one significant problem - they all rely on illustrations / handouts for the players, which is hard to do with a hard cover book. Are you going to be the one ripping pout pages? Not I!
WotC has put all four illustration booklets online for free download. They look amazing. Even better, you don't need to own the originals (or the reprint compilation) to use them. Grab the downloads and use them to set scenes in your own adventures. Seriously. Why let classic D&D art of this quality go to waste?
Thanks for letting us know about this.
ReplyDeleteMy one bitch about the reprint and this pretty much fixes it for me. I would have preferred to have the handout booklets but this allows me to print my own.
ReplyDeleteGlad they took the time to do this.
Dare I hope that WotC is starting to "get it" finally?
ReplyDeleteI think Mearls gets it...good deal, he makes some awesome material.
ReplyDeleteI will be downloading this soon as I get home. This is great!
