Humble Bundle - Warhammer FRP 2e - Even if Just for a Buck - You NEED This!

My God! One of my favorite RPGs of all time, available for a measly buck. And if you put in 20, they include a PDF of WFRP 1e! Humble Bundle for the win!

Here's the 1 dollar:

Now for the 8 buck level:

How about 15 bucks?

Last, but certainly far from least, you add the following at the 20 dollar level:

Holy shit. I may be in gaming heaven...

I think this bundle is the first one to show up that I cannot pass up on. I've tried to talk myself out of it for a few minutes and all arguments fail, especially since I can direct some additional money towards some charity that is assisting with hurricane relief.

It is a great deal, and a nice resource to drop on any ZWEIHÄNDER players out there.

The WFRP 1e fully indexed PDF is worth the purchase alone!

Why "Swords & Wizardry?"

Believe me when I say I have them all in dead tree format. I have OSRIC in full size, trade paperback and the Player's Guide. I have LL and the AEC (and somewhere OEC, but I can't find it at the moment). Obviously I have Basic Fantasy RPG. Actually, I have the whole available line in print. Way too much Castles & Crusades. We all know my love for the DCC RPG. I even have Dark Dungeons in print, the Delving Deeper boxed set, Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea. BOTH editions of LotFP's Weird Fantasy and some dead tree copies of the Greyhawk Grognards Adventures Dark & Deep

I am so deep in the OSR when I come up for breath it's for the OSR's cousin, Tunnels & Trolls

So, out of all that, why Swords & Wizardry? Why, when I have been running a AD&D 1e / OSRIC campaign in Rappan Athuk am I using Swords & Wizardry and it's variant, Crypts & Things, for the second campaign? (Actually, now running a S&W Complete campaign, soon to be with multiple groups)

Because the shit works.

It's easy for lapsed gamers to pick up and feel like they haven't lost a step. I can house rule it and it doesn't break. It plays so close to the AD&D of my youth and college years (S&W Complete especially) that it continually surprises me. Just much less rules hopping than I remember. (my God but I can run it nearly without the book)

I grab and pick and steal from just about all OSR and Original resources. They seem to fit into S&W with little fuss. It may be the same with LL and the rest, but for me the ease of use fit's my expectations with S&W.

Even the single saving throw. That took me longer to adjust to, but even that seems like a natural to me now. Don't ask me why, it just does. Maybe it's the simplicity of it. At 45 52, simplicity and flexibility while remaining true to the feel of the original is an OSR hat trick for me ;)
