We just de-French-ified some parts. An improvement, really!

I already have the premium reprints, but if they'd slap the original covers on these, I'd pay for a-whole-nother set of the PODs.

The use of proper English spellings in OSRIC is really what elevates it above all other extant simulacrums.

OMFG...I just found out that OSRIC is POD now!!! Take that American D&D!

Americans love it so much that a luxury version is available from a well known American based company.

Question to Stuart: Did you and Matt fight, in OSRIC's nascency, over which spelling convention to use?

I'm not sure where OSRIC stands on the central issue confronting the roleplaying game world: Do dwarf women have beards? - but it is firmly in favour of 'dwarfs' over 'dwarves'.
