But on looking at a brand new copy of Rappan Athuk Reloaded, a limited edition, and fantastic megadungeon, I pose a question which this dungeon has brought up:Why the nead to own the physical copy?I have the PDF from RPGNow and it's very high quality, and the odds of me ever being able to DM it are slim unless my partner and I have kids that I can entice into RPGs. So why do we feel the need to own the physical products when there are different ways of owning the actual information therein?
mbassoc2003 wrote:That's how I feel about stuff now as well, and it's easy with the Goodman Games stuff. I just have a folder with all the PDFs in it, and the odds are I'll only ever draw on them as source material and never play any of it.But I notice the last Rappan Athuk sold on eBay for $175 BIN, and it is a tremendous piece of work. I doubt I'll see another dungeon like it in my remaining years unless we see a really good rendition of Castle Greyhawk. RA is a masterpiece. I just don't know whether to sell on my boxed set and keep the PDFs, and it raises the whole 'I'm never gonna use it so why do I need to keep it' issue.

And as I recall, Reloaded is more than just R1-2-3 added together. The artwork is much more professional, the printing quality is a lot higher, and there is additional materials from the original campaign.http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250252827217
