Recently read most of David A Hill's "Avremier" supplement and really enjoy his ideas and originality with this great setting. After 30+ years, it's been slow cooked to a rich maturity that reminds me in some ways of "Empire of The Petal Throne" material. Check it out! It can be easily used with Original '74 D&D and other classic OSR clones.

You can tell a lot of time and a lot of love went into this. In a market overflowing with OSR books, retroclones, heartbreakers, and the rest, the Avremier books stand out thanks to that love and attention.

The style of the books is so evocative of the early days of the hobby, and the quality of the writing and production is very high. David Hill and co. have added plenty of new spin to old ideas, as well as adding some fresh concepts into the mix. Every area has been given a fresh lick of paint... monsters, classes, races, loot, mechanics, settings... and all these areas have been expanded on as well, so it's not just the simple touch-up job that a lot of OSR products think they can skate by with.

They do not stand on their own, and you will need access to 0e rules to use them, and I only mention that here as I feel it needs pointing out as so many OSR products are a self-contained system now, and something like this 5-book series might easily be mistaken for such.

There is an awful lot packed into these little books and they are easily worth their asking price, and I thoroughly recommend them for fans of the oldest school.

---Supplement 0 Notes---

The Armiger is a very nice alternative to the traditional Paladin, with its powers coming from heraldic beasts as opposed to deities, and with each beast granting an immunity, a bonus to attack a specific type of creature, and a Heraldic Manifestation (A spell-like power with limited daily uses)

Tons of new magical items, spells, gods, and more...!

This, the Avremier booklet, and the other Avremier books are extremely well written. Although slightly different in setting/rules from the Oed and later TSR offerings (D&D/AD&D), they pay great homage to the original game in scope and typeset/format, and do translate well in order to incorporate into one's own setting or to play them as Avremier campaigns. The artwork is original and very well done, the sense of humor is, well, very close to mine and I personally find it awesome (Flutterpotomus). I have read and seen other OSR type offerings of the past and current crop of efforts and this is by far the best I have run across in quality and quantity of content. Avremier in the making from decades ago now available to us all. I will always look for new releases as they are of the highest calibre. Dave of Eclectic Hobbies.

Oh man, I have been playing for some time now, and Avremeier is a wonderful setting to play in. David has really out done himself.

This is a truly fun and off the wall setting to read through. I love the creatures, the handful of new spells, and also the setting. It's cool to see ideas like humanity rebuilding civilization against the fae and the wilderness. It's short, sweet, and simple and this is a setting I have high hopes that I'll run in my future campaigns.

This was a good first supplement to this world. 30yrs in the making and it did not disappoint me at all. well thought out and a pleasant read. Enjoy.
