    May 1980 The Dragon feature a module, a special inclusion, or some other out-of-the- ordinary ingredient. It’s still a bargain when you stop to think that a regular commercial module, purchased separately, would cost even more than that—and for your three bucks, you’re getting a whole lot of magazine besides. It should be pointed out that subscribers can still get a year’s worth of TD for only $2 per issue. Hint, hint . And now, on to the good news. This month’s kaleidoscopic cover comes to us from the talented Darlene Pekul, and serves as your p, up and away in May! That’s the catch-phrase for first look at Jasmine, Darlene’s fantasy adventure strip, which issue #37 of The Dragon. In addition to going up in makes its debut in this issue. The story she’s unfolding promises to quality and content with still more new features this be a good one; stay tuned. month, TD has gone up in another way: the price. As observant subscribers, or those of you who bought Holding down the middle of the magazine is The Pit of The this issue in a store, will have already noticed, we’re now asking $3 Oracle, an AD&D game module created by Stephen Sullivan. It for TD. From now on, the magazine will cost that much whenever we was the second-place winner in the first International Dungeon Design Competition, and after looking it over and playing through it, we think you’ll understand why it placed so high.

  • H-2 the Mines of Bloodstone
    H-2 The Mines of Bloodstone Conversion Guide Introduction: In 1986, TSR published the module named “The Mines of Bloodstone” with the code “H2”. It was written by Douglas Niles and Michael Dobson as a sequel to H1, which was originally conceived of as a stand-alone adventure. Unlike H1, “The Mines of Bloodstone” was not primarily designed to highlight Battlesystem, which provided rules for mass combat in the form of miniature wargaming, and instead gave DM's the option to use Battlesystem for the large-scale battles, or to have them take place off stage. H2 thus consisted of a 48-page story, with several pages of maps for battle encounters and dungeon th exploration. This conversion guide allows DMs to run the original module with 5 Edition rules and provides a reference sheet for encounters.
