Now i'm thinking hmm... if i get these new Necromancer 5th books, even if i don't like the actual 5th ed. D&D... hell at least the stat blocks looks totally compatible to C&C or any other retroclone (with ascending AC)
I'm converting my current S&W/Labyrinth Lord/LotFP Razor Coast/Red Tide (haha yeah I can't just leave well enough alone) game over to 5e using the free online D&D Basic pdf. There are a few differences of course (more hit points for PCs, slightly higher stat modifiers, etc). This new edition does remind me a lot of C&C, with a couple extra cool rules (I really dig the advantage/disadvantage rules).
I trust Necromancer to get that sweet old school feeling right. I just wish I had enough to get all three books. Maybe if I save my pennies I can get them all. I'm really, really hoping the spells book gets funded. I'm especially interested to see how they scale some of their spells for higher levels.

Preliminary spell list for the Book of Lost Spells and an interview with Ed Greenwood about 5E and his contribution to Quests of Doom!
I'm still hoping I can afford to buy all three print books, but if I can't scrape together the money will there be an option to buy pdfs of the other two books?

The project just unlocked the third book, meaning all 3 books will be released:
5th Edition Foes
Quests of Doom
Book of Lost Spells
So here on in, stretch goals will increase the existing content - potentially up to 20 more monsters and 6 more adventures.

It's our standing policy that if you purchase the hardcover you also get a copy of the PDF for free.
Thank you everyone!
Hi bill. Do you know if your going to be converting W1: The Cruicible of Freya to 5e as well as the wizard's amulet?
That is sad. Well, time to get converting
:D
Probably not to 5E--we did that for PFRPG in Stoneheart Valley
That's too bad, I was hopeful after seeing The Wizard's Amulet for 5E that we would see the rest of Stoneheart Valley.

I would certainly buy a stone heart valley conversion
Just a head's up: shipment has commenced for Quests of Doom and, I assume, the other books in the kickstarter. I can't wait to get my copies!
For those who missed out on the kickstarter, see Frog God Games if you want to purchase copies.
