Jun 05, 2006 17:08:50 I have an old 2e Mystara adventure that includes a CD, that's sort of a sequel to Castle Amber. Perhaps it's in the same series as yours.

Yep I found it, check this link out:

It appears they made three of them. Interestingly yours was designed by Monte Cook.

Yes, it was a short-lived attempt to port Mystara to AD&D2e, which included also another boxed set, Karameikos: Kingdom of Adventure.

It appears they made three of them. Interestingly yours was designed by Monte Cook.

However, he only did a rules conversion from OD&D to AD&D. The original design of Glantri and its many NPCs, magic schools etc. was done by Bruce Heard in the "Principalities of Glantri" Gazetteer (http://reviews.dnd.starflung.com/select.php?id=3).

You may find most of them as ESDs as well (some are not so easy to find otherwise).

Also, you may want to have a look at Mystara's official fan site (http://pandius.com)

Jun 10, 2006 15:37:31 I'm glad to hear that someone found those CDs useful. Most people seem to suggest that they were the reason why the AD&D Mystara line failed.

IMO the Red Steel CDs were much better than the ones from the Mystara line proper.

There were four AD&D Mystara products that included a CD and two Red Steel ones.
