This is it, people, the wait is over!
The OSE Rules Tome contains a complete and faithful re-statement of the 1981 Basic/Expert version of "the world's most successful roleplaying game". This book (and some dice, paper, and a pencil) is all you need to have literally decades of adventure. This book is truly a "deserted island" book, provided you strand there with a couple of friends. The author has done an incredible job researching, clarifying, organizing, and laying out the original game, and has assembled a team of stellar artists to illustrate the book. What the Rules Cyclopedia (RC) is to Mentzer's BECMI, this book is to Moldvay/Cook/Marsh's B/X. You'll regret not getting this, seriously!
