SQ 203 Old School Essentials Box Set mega episode w/ Erol Otus, Gavin Norman (Necrotic Gnome), David Hoskins, Matt Kelley (Exalted Funeral)
Episode description
This episode is sponsored by Exalted Funeral, and we talk about about the Old School Essentials Box Set with creator Gavin Norman (Necrotic Gnome), artists Erol Otus & David Hoskins, and publisher Matt Kelley (Exalted Funeral).
Old-School Essentials Classic Fantasy is a complete retelling of the classic 1980s Basic/Expert game, including all rules, character options, spells, monsters, and magic items.
The Classic Game Set contains the same game as the Classic Fantasy Rules Tome, just presented in a 5 book set for those who share our love of RPG box sets! The Old-School Essentials Classic Game Set + the Advanced Expansion Set also contains the same game as the Advanced Fantasy Player’s + Referee’s Tomes.
Celebrating 40 Years of Basic/Expert!
The Basic/Expert game which Old-School Essentials is based on was published in 1981 — 40 years ago! In celebration of this anniversary, we're delighted and honoured to announce that Erol Otus, legendary creator of the original B/X covers, has painted a brand new cover for the Old-School Essentials Classic Game Set!
