Hello all!

I'm trying to compile a list of all known (at least commercially available) versions of OSRIC rules and their alignment to the versions of OD&D, D&D and AD&D (and beyond)...

For example:

"Swords & Wizardry Core" - Mythmere and FGG - 1E AD&D ?
"Swords & Wizardry Complete" - FGG - OD&D
"Swords & Wizardry White Box" - Mythmere - OD&D

"Labyrinth Lord" - Goblinoid Games - D&D (BECMI)
"Labyrinth Lord, Advanced" - Goblinoid Games - AD&D ?

etc.

Can anyone help?  I'm just starting, so any and all input is appreciated.

Thanks,

~throwi

Dragonsfoot has a handy reference here:

I draw the line at collecting... D&D beach towels.

Shoulda been: ".. from Pangreenia to Floratopolis, from mystical Treeonia of spectral Forests to Schruborial dimensions." - The Forests of Leng

Great topic over there!  I have a further question though: what are the different edition/printing of OSRIC?  From that topic the same cover matches to both 1E and 2E...

Guy Fullerton has a listing of OSR publications, too, which may be useful:  Knights & Knaves Alehouse • View topic - Hoard of the Gygaxian Horde
