[DT] What systems will you buy adventures from? - Kersus - 04-16-2014
What adventure modules (pdf or print) would you buy based on system?
RE: What systems will you buy adventures from? - trp - 04-16-2014
I went with
OSRIC
Generic
Other
OSRIC: because AD&D wasn't on the list.
Generic: because I'm fine with adapting adventures to whichever game I'm running. I've often used MERP and RQ adventures in AD&D, and I was using AD&D modules in Dangerous Journeys: Mythus.
Other: Chaosium Runequest (not the poorer Moongoose knockoff), Rolemaster, Call of Cthuhlu, Mythus, MERP and others.
In general, I don't care if a game is out of print; a good adventure is a good adventure. So, I would buy adventures for those other retro-clones if they came with good endorsements from people I knew had the same gaming sensibilities as me.
So, I guess I'd buy anything that I think is good.

So I wonder if generic (like the Eldritch Enterprises system) or OSRIC would be better. What if you had to pick just one for a fantasy adventure? What is your preference?

With a gun to my head, and I can only pick one, then it would be OSRIC, because I am more likely to run an AD&D game, and there would be no need for conversion.

Have you seen their recent almost pocket version?

No, I don't actually keep up with the rules*; I've got all the AD&D 1e books that I need.
* even being a frequent poster at K&KA.

After GaryCon and some thoughts for publishing, I've been going through my OSRIC hardcover (which I got as soon as they were released). It's pretty neat. For actual play though, I already know where to find everything in the AD&D books so that's what I use, but maybe I could make the switch.....
I probably need some help to polish the adventures I want to publish. Heck like many gamers, I even have my own system and world, but I'm not sure they'll see the light.
