Once I got there and joined a real group, I got my first taste of JG. The campaign was set in the Wilderlands. I think we started with Citadel of Fire. Then we headed off to CSIO. We used the new 1st Ed AD&D books as they came out. When I got home from college, I started up a campaign of my own in the Wilderlands. I ran it for over twenty years.

Not the least due to Melan's involvement with the project :) Along with Rob Conley's Majestic Wilderlands, these are great examples of how to take the barebones presentation of the original product and make it into something truly personalized and special.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01682401446176099294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3094937232522894470.post-14333971433854932742010-09-30T16:22:42.534-07:002010-09-30T16:22:42.534-07:00I own the box set that was produced for 3e (as wel...I own the box set that was produced for 3e (as well as the CSIO book, and PDFs of all the 3e JG modules from Necro and Goodman Games). <br /><br />It is, hands down, my favourite 3e-related product.

I own three different printings plus a few extra maps. Maps maps maps. Which is my suggestion to Evan - go with the Necromancer boxed set for the content, but buy a few original maps. They are on very resilient stock and look gorgeous, plus the NG box didn't have player maps for cost-related reasons, and you need those for the full experience.Melanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07165894144553629675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3094937232522894470.post-29577616693524614242010-09-25T12:05:14.193-07:002010-09-25T12:05:14.193-07:00I also have the third edition box with one campaig...I also have the third edition box with one campaign running in Lenap and one I'm hoping to start up in the Sea of the Five Winds region.Alex Schroederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17104864340940538702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3094937232522894470.post-51486761218532568032010-09-25T11:13:23.964-07:002010-09-25T11:13:23.964-07:00How useful is this if you have the 3.x box set Nec...How useful is this if you have the 3.x box set Necromancer put out?<br /><br />I still have mine and since it doesn't take very long to make stats for OSD&D I'd probably use it.

It was $75, had all the books and all the maps (Judges and Players). I've used it consistently ever since. It's the best gaming product (next to the Ready Ref Sheets) that I've ever owned. In case of a fire, they'd be one of the first things I'd grab as I would try to escape.Balrog62https://www.blogger.com/profile/10524223991891502964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3094937232522894470.post-18599652332399037152010-09-25T09:01:50.762-07:002010-09-25T09:01:50.762-07:00For what it's worth, the original maps are sol...For what it's worth, the original maps are sold separately, and are almost always available cheap on eBay or Noble Knight.
