OSE Classic Fantasy is a wonderful book. The layout is really impressive. The art is great. Moreover the book just has a great feel to it.
My only minor gripe which was too small to actually deduct a star was that it was really unclear what the shipping lead time would be when I ordered from Exalted Funeral. It took a few weeks to get the book which was totally fine, I just didn't have any indicator on how long it should take and it actually made me wonder if I had maybe not placed my order correctly. I reached out to their support team for a shipping update and didn't hear back from them for a few days until my order had a shipping label created through FedEx. So I actually got a FedEx notification then later that day support responded to my request and sent me my tracking number.
It is important to note I ordered right after Christmas so one can very safely assume that Exalted Funeral was both really busy and also probably working on short weeks because of the holidays so again I don't think this is cause to deduct from the star total.
Thank you for a great product! I look forward to getting more products in the future!
Grabbed this on the Black Friday sale knowing that it will be gifted to someone who loves OSE’s presentation of B/X as much as I do.
Just the most perfect presentation of the B/X game.
Love it, best reference for B/X or BECMI reference I’ve ever seen.
Information and text is laid out in a way that is fun to read, and easy to scan, so it makes the overall message exceedingly clear: THE DUNGEON HATES YOU.
Go forth and delve.
