Necromancer Games kept the torch of old school gaming alive during the hey-day of 3e D&D. They published a lot of cool stuff, including resurrecting the Judges Guild's classic 'Wilderlands' setting. It's good news that their material will be available again.
Really good news.
ReplyDeleteGood news!
ReplyDeleteSomehow they weren't on my map until it was too late... and so I've been retroactively collecting some of their stuff to mine for ideas.
If some of the products are released in S&W versions, I very likely will pick up a few things from Necro!
ReplyDeleteTo clarify: I already own a lot of great Necromancer stuff, but I'd be tempted to buy even more if it were statted for S&W.
