Into the Borderlands
I read this update on the Goodman Games reprint/5E conversion of B1 and B2 yesterday. Here's Brendan S with some thoughts on it.
Originally shared by Brendan S
I remember the news about the license acquisition for this, but haven't paid much attention since. Glad to hear there is progress.
At some level, a 380 page version of B1-2 is sort of absurd, but I don't even care, I'm just happy there's a hardcover love letter to these old modules.
(However, while I wouldn't kick a a careful 5E conversion out of bed, my guess is that the DCC and collect-all-the-things faithful who will undoubtedly be the primary customers of this book will maybe benefit less from this part of the book than more casual 5E players.)
A thought experiment: what would the B series look like retold in the manner of Into the Abyss (or one of the other recent single-hardcover adventure paths)? Would that be possible? At some level I know WotC has been taking a lot of inspiration from trad modules, but somehow the relationship between I6 and Curse of Strahd seems unlike what I am trying to get at here.

B1 TSR Editorial Dept copy
It's a B1 day: here's a TSR "Editing Dept" copy of B1 - see the labels on the cover.
This is from a recently ended auction of a lot of similar modules: http://www.ebay.com/itm/142358665850?orig_cvip=true

Rules expansions from B1?
Chris Kutalik:
Question to the community: have any of the various Holmes clones and expansions throw in the de facto rules expansions of B1. You know things that were drawn from the Greyhawk supplement like demi-humans thieves, hireling rules, STR mechanical stuff? Just curious.
