I’m also now the owner of T1, The Village of Hommlet (Yes, I know its included in T1-4, but I prefer having it separately as well), C1 The Lost Temple of Tamoachan, A3 Assault on the Aerie of the Slave Lords and A4 In the Dungeons of the Slave Lords, which together mend a gaping hole in my AD&D module collection.

There are still a few adventures I desperately need to get – Mordenkainen’s Fantastic Adventure and Ravenloft are the primary two remaining. It shouldn’t be that difficult to pick both up. (Actually, there’s an Australian auction for the former at present, which I hope to win).

(A few Magic cards also arrived, completing my sets of the Alara Block. Yay!)

In other news, I’ve written a review/overview of 4th Edition D&D for rpg geek – you can read it here. It’s a fairly lengthy overview, and it’s still incomplete. I intend to write individual reviews for each of the core rulebooks to flesh it out more.

I’ve also posted session reports of the games on Friday night and Sunday afternoon, for those who care to read those things. Beware, the Sunday game is “King of the Trollhaunt Warrens” and contains spoilers!

Apart from that, a bunch of fantasy novels arrived from Amazon: Chris Evan’s The Light of Burning Shadows amongst them. (In hardcover as well – nice!) Also amongst them was Jack Vance’s Dying Earth series, and the book which is intriguing me at present, Elantris by Brandon Sanderson. For those unaware of who Brandon Sanderson is, he’s the guy who has been selected to complete the Wheel of Time series. Elantris is delighting me (I also got his Mistborn trilogy), so Chris’s new work will have to wait until the weekend. Sorry, Chris! (I want to read both of the Iron Elves books together, as it’s been a while since I read the first).

Add to that a few new wargames – Silent War (a solo game about WW2 submarines), Rommel in the Desert, Shifting Sands (both games about WW2 Africa), and Hammer of the Scots (Edward I vs Wallace and Robert the Bruce), and you’ve got quite a happy Australian.
