Clark Ashton Smith and the Complete Book of Necromancers

This is a subreddit for news and discussion of Old School Renaissance topics. We primarily focus on D&D (LBB, 1st ed. AD&D, etc.) and the retroclones. Other Old School games (Traveller, Runequest, Tunnels & Trolls, et al) are of course open for discussion. This is *not* a place to rant about how (your least favorite edition) sucks! In fact, I hope discussion arises about how later editions do things right, and how to incorporate them into OSR-styled games.

REVIEW: The Floating Tower from Atlantis

Lamentations of the Flame Princess is a tabletop role-playing game using old school fantasy game rules and steeped in all things strange, macabre, and weird. Inspirations include Lovecraft, Argento, Barker, the Stockholm death metal scene, Morrison, etc. Being part of the OSR family of games means that LotFP uses the Open Game License to recreate game rules of the late 70s/early 80s, and every supplement is compatible with hundreds of other RPGs, and their material is compatible with LotFP.
