The Ryth Chronicle

Thanks, Scott. I put some notes in the original post supplying the missing links (including the Rythlondar pdf download), which can be found at the Internet Archive now.

This thread is so useful & informative regarding actual play in the '70s I just moved it from the General Board to Links & Resources and made it sticky.

It seems to me that attacks were based on an "ascending armor class" scheme. To hit value were as per chart, but that chart remained the same at all levels. Each character had a bonus to hit as they progressed in levels.

I have also compiled all the Rythlondar materials into one document, with a cover featuring a "non-related" pic, but thematically appropriate.

A previous version I downloaded was only 80 pages; what additional materials did you add to your compilation, Zulgyan?

Letter N*10 was found and posted later, and also an additional letter from 1988 looking back at the campaign. These letters were 2 additional pdfs that were posted separated from the main document.

Thanks!

I put together a copy of this for myself back in 2012 with an original booklets style cover. I took snapshots of the two poorly scanned pages (pages 3 and 4 in your version Zulgyan), lightened them and then stitched them back into the document. Made those pages much more readable. I'd be happy to supply pdfs of those two pages if you'd like to split and merge them into your document.

Great, thank you Zulgyan

1/4/20 Update: I've merge Zulgyan's "Complete Rythlondar" thread into this longer "Ryth Chronicle" thread.

It's too bad that issue 2 is missing from the collection. It came out at the same time that many groups were converting to the new Greyhawk rules. That would have been a fascinating read.
