<p><a href="https://url.attronarch.com/6mw"><strong>Adventures Dark and Deep</strong></a> by Joe Bloch of BRW games is an alternative AD&amp;D second edition, imagining how might AD&amp;D evolve if Gary Gygax remained at the helm of TSR.</p>

<p>Joe is a great scholar of AD&amp;D and it shows. <em>Adventures Dark and Deep</em> consists of two thick core books (<a href="https://url.attronarch.com/h2e">rulebook</a> and <a href="https://url.attronarch.com/564">bestiary</a>), but now there is also <a href="https://url.attronarch.com/7qj"><strong>Adventures Dark and Deep Lite</strong></a> which is a single tome to get people started with the system. PDF is available as PWYW, while PODs are at cost.</p>

<p>System aside, I am a great fan of Joe&#39;s supplemental books, which are easy to use with OD&amp;D and AD&amp;D:</p>
<ul><li><a href="https://url.attronarch.com/po2">Book of Lost Lore</a></li>
<li><a href="https://url.attronarch.com/vyr">Book of Lost Beasts</a></li>
<li><a href="https://url.attronarch.com/rb1">Book of Lost Tables</a></li>
<li><a href="https://url.attronarch.com/w78">Swords of Cthulhu</a></li>
<li><a href="https://url.attronarch.com/yal">Swords of Wuxia</a></li></ul>

<p><em>Book of Lost Tables</em> sees a lot of use with its 348 random tables for generating random wilderness terrain, random wilderness encounters, random dungeon terrain, random dungeon encounters, random urban terrain, random urban encounters, character parties, and more.</p>
