@doggoblingames @birv2 Yeah, I backed Blueholme, and play it sometimes. He *finally* got the setting Brochure out.

It's a retro-clone of my favorite actual D&D version, but in practice it's too close to the original, no modern conveniences like ascending AC, unified saves. The playable species are buried in the monster list. It's *very* conservative compared to S&W.

"XP for Reported Treasure" – is a thing I will try out soon when I run Village of Hommlet in Blueholme (Holmes D&D).

Spend a turn (10mins) to inventory/sketch treasure in situ, then tell people about it when you return to town in exchange for experience points.

Treasure you bring back with you is just treasure.

This feels like it should work fine. I'll report back on how it goes.

Please don't take this as a sales pitch, but if you have been thinking about whether to get the #BLUEHOLME or #BLUEHACK core books, it might be safest to do so before January 13th.

Obviously both #BLUEHOLME and #BLUEHACK are published under the OGL 1.0a, and both use elements of the WotC D&D 3.5E #SRD in the core rules. At this stage no-one knows for sure what Hasbro/WotC are planning, but the possibility exists that the #OGL 1.0a may be withdrawn. Again, the impact is unknown unless tested in a court of law.

Which is great, it's my favorite D&D retroclone, but it still does need another booklet or two to even match actual Holmes D&D.
