Men and Magic Compilation
From the Introduction: These rules are an amalgamation of the earliest published volumes of the oldest fantasy role-playing game; those little booklets that ushered in an age of adventure and magic for so many. What you have before you is an attempt to gather¸ organize¸ edit¸ and customize all that written material into a set of similar volumes that retains the old-school feel and form¸ while offering more ease of use and reference. The first three volumes of this series will collect and edit all relevant data from those original tomes¸ plus the prequel and the supplements that followed¸ into a cohesive set of guides that will be self-contained and complete. The final result will honor the original spirit of the source material in every possible way. From the Scope: This presentation of the rules will provide full coverage of the game¸ as originally presented. Any changes or edits are included for clarity and completeness. All relevant rules or additions from supplements and magazines ( The Strategic Review and The Dragon ) are also provided¸ in proper place and context. For the sake of brevity and continuity¸ Chainmail is not used as a reference¸ as those rules were modified in the earliest supplements¸ and these rules incorporate the alternate combat system. These rules are compatible with the Avremier Campaign Setting¸ as presented in its OSR format. No ownership is claimed or implied. This is entirely a reference work.
