I think the core book is the best of the lot. The others add some interesting depth, but I tend to gravitate to the early works (First Fantasy Campaign) rather than the d20 or 4E stuff.
Just my own preference. The d20 books are all well done.

If I could own only one of the DAB books, it would be the 4e sourcebook "The First Campaign" Here is why: 1) It distills, clarifies, and in some casses improves information given across several of the earlier d20 books. 2) It was the last book Dave Arneson published and so can be considered the last word on the subject. 3) unlike some of the other sourcebooks, it is lighter on crunch and rules specific things and heavier on information. rpggeek.com/rpgitem/50589/dave-arnesons-blackmoor-the-first-campaignBut seriously, you can buy these things for a song and a smile now, you might as well get them all. |

Weirdly, if you order that on Amazon, you pay $1.00 less in shipping...

What's the core book called? The 3E Core Book is just called "Dave Arneson's Blackmoor". Some other books in the series that I would recommend: Dungeons of Castle Blackmoor Temple of the Frog City of the Gods Riders of Hak The Players Guide to Blackmoor and the Clock & Steam sourcebooks are mainly 3E rules stuff, so they will be the least useful for those looking to use them with older editions. -Havard |
