One Response to “Episode 64: Best of The Dragon Vol. 1”


Hee,hee, hee. I just heard at least two of you admit that the original versions of the Bard, illusionist and Ranger were all better than the one’s Gary Gygax reworked in ADD. This certainly implies that the original Druid was probably better as well. I submit that nothing in ADD is better than in its’ original form by its’ original creators. Certainly, everything in !st edition ADD was longer and had more cross referencing, but I would not call these improvements.
Thanks for putting Super Man’s poop in my head.
