Nice! The more I realize how poorly Labyrinth Lord is actually laid out for play (lets see how many random places we can put charts!), the more I wonder why we don't just play B/X D&D with all the cool parts you have added to the game bolted on. Those books are just flat out cooler than LL, I am sorry.
ReplyDeleteYou mentioned how 4e is not evocative to you - the B/X books are evocative in a way that LL is not to me, some indescribable combination of layout and art and nostalgia.
I agree that the B/X books' layout is hard to beat -- incredibly efficient, practical, and quite evocative. (Of course, the Otus, Tramp, and Dee artwork doesn't hurt either.)
ReplyDeleteYup. I love the layout so much I even wrote a post about it:
