A great piece by Bill Willingham for this Tuesday morning. What would be your spell of choice when fighting, say… a red dragon? #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

Okay so I may be getting too carried away with this dungeon 😅 level 1 has a wraith, a hero fighting-man and a carrion crawler and level 2 has spitting cobras and a wyvern - and this is BEFORE the nightmare-pulled skeleton chariot and the wight lord!! #osr #dnd #odnd #TTRPGs

Orcus by Dave Sutherland. I wonder if Orcus would be willing to lend out his wand…?🤔 #ADnD #ODnD #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #dungeonsanddragons

When you hope the damage dice roll high… “Come on, Momma needs a new pair of shoes and Papa doesn’t want a new character.” Awesome work by Larry Elmore. #ADnD #ODnD #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #oldschoolttrpg #dungeonsanddragons #BXDnD

“In the mysterious caverns below the castle, your odyssey continues against the awesome forces that oppose your efforts to reach the Dragon's Lair. Lead on, adventurer. Your quest awaits!” #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

Some DCS art depicting actual adventuring. Hmmm, does your party continue through this one way passage or do you find another area to explore? #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

You have new character sheets filled out & we’re going on an adventure. Which of these classic modules do you want me to run? Or do you have another favourite intro module? #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

One of my favourite Dave Sutherland pieces from the Holmes Basic D&D rulebook. #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

Some Dave Sutherland for this Friday. Another creature I rarely use but will rectify… the ominous Ogre Mage. #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

Wait, how many genres or categories do we actually have in the #ttrpg sphere ? #OSR #NuSR #NuDnD #nachosr #dorklandia ? #VintageGaming #RetroGaming #ODnD #BasedOSR

“Mess with a bull, you get the horns”… and in this case, a really big spear! Still the best D&D Minotaur depiction in my opinion. By the great Bill Willingham. #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

I’ve walked these corridors a few times in game. Yet I haven’t had a character live long enough to open certain doors for the real fun to begin. Who knows where this is? #ADnD #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

Erol Otus for this Wednesday. Adventurers exploring a dungeon, combat, finding treasure, now that is art that inspires me to play the game. #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

Wizard Eye is fantastic scouting spell & under utilized imo. Not every spell needs to be blasting & curing wounds. Variety is the way to go for your M-Us & Clerics etc. #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

In the latest post on the Zenopus Archives blog, a look at the some of the earliest of #Greyhawk lore, from the first draft of #DnD in July of 1973. Find the link in the first comment below. #ODnD #DungeonsAndDragons

The second series of the comic book ads from the 80’s. This one featuring Khellek, Auric & Tirra by Bill Willingham. This was another story line I wishes continued. #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ADnD #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

Hark, what is that plume of white smoke yonder? Some Erol Otus for this Sunday morning. #DnD #ADnD #ODnD #DnDBasic #HolmesBasic #oldschoolttrpg #dungeonsanddragons

A little early morning reading, research for upcoming adventures… if the party survives long enough. #ADnD #ODnD #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #oldschoolttrpg #dungeonsanddragons #BXDnD

Any day is a good day for some DAT. I always loved this small piece from the 1E AD&D DMG. Quote/Repost your favourite Dave Trampier art. Let’s keep it going… #ADnD #DnDBasic #DnD #HolmesBasic #BXDnD #oldschoolttrpg #ODnD #dungeonsanddragons

The Alternate Combat System also addresses the same issue which arises when considering the Fantasy Combat Table: weaponry is "subsumed in the matrixes". The combined result is a Character Level (Fantasy Combat Table DNA) vs Armor (Man to Man Table DNA) table. #odnd
