Save or Die Episode 117: "AOTC: Blueholm"

Those pesky clones just keep showing up! This show the 3 Dmigoes look at Michael Thomas's Basic Holmes D&D clone, called "Blueholm" for obvious reasons. We weigh the pros, the cons, the faithfulness to the original, and most importantly of all the status of kobolds!

This is what I've been waiting for since Zenopus reviewd the Prentice Rues on his archives - the three DMs of Save or Die tearing apart my humble retro clone (in the nicest possible way, of course)!

Most of you here will be more familiar with the background to the creation of the BLUEHOLME™ Prentice Rules (all caps, with an 'E', and a little '™'), but I've added some explanation to the thread over at the OSR Forums:

I have to say there's no excuse for some of the foolishness I perpetrated. Clerics turning 1d6+level HD of undead? An AC2 Ring of Protection? Where in hades did that come from? This will be fixed in the 4th printing, and in Compleat. I guess that means the DMs will be getting contributors' copies instead of reviewer's copies next time ...

So Vile Traveller, that was quite the post on OSRGaming ... but when will this IndieGoGo for BLUEHOLME™ Compleat be coming out?
