In April 2023 we presented the all-new Mongoose d20 Classic Play Bundle featuring Classic Play and other lines of FRPG supplements produced by Mongoose Publishing from 2001 through 2006 for the d20 System. Each 256-page Classic Play compendium details one particular element of fantasy gaming, drawing on dozens of sources released under the Open Game License. Like the Classic Play series, all the vintage d20 System sourcebooks in this bargain-priced offer offered rules, ideas, and insights to enliven Dungeons & Dragons 3.x, Pathfinder, or any fantasy game.
There were eight Classic Play sourcebooks in our Classic Collection (retail value $46) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including The Books of Adventuring, Dragons, Encounters & Lairs, Hell, Immortals, The Planes, The Sea, and Strongholds & Dynasties.
Those who paid more than the threshold (average) price also got our entire Bonus Collection with ten more titles worth an additional $51:
- All three Expert Player’s Guides: Renegade Wizard’s Spellbook, Renegade Cleric’s Tome, and Epic Monsters
- All three Seas of Blood ocean-faring sourcebooks: Seas of Blood, Ships of War, and Ships of the Goblinoids
- Both volumes of the Monster Encyclopaedia: 1 – Ravagers of the Realms and 2 – Dark Bestiary
- Both infernal handbooks of The Planes: Feuerring and Zahhak
Newly generated from the original system files, these .PDFs have pristine text. The front and back covers of each title are blurry image scans of the original hardcopies, 2001-2006.
Ten percent of each payment (after gateway fees) went to this Mongoose Classic Play offer’s pandemic-related charity, Direct Relief. Direct Relief sends protective gear and critical care medications to health workers, with emergency deliveries to medical facilities across the US and to regional response agencies across the world.
