Added on The Haunted Tower . . .
But the big update is I have divorced Original D&D from Classic D&D. Well, at least the rough draft . .
For Classic D&D, Core Rules (I) now has all the rules. Creature Crucible has been moved to Accessories and Gazetteers (they were really a continuation of the GAZ series anyway). Core Rules II is no longer necessary - I haven't deleted it yet, and all the other pages need to be edited to remove the link.
Original D&D has been added to the Homepage (index.html) - I made it the first item as that seemed most appropriate. Chainmail, Woodgrains, OCEs, Supplement, Geomorphs and some other items have all been placed on the same page.
The links to several of the items (like the sheets and screens) are not updated yet . . . I don't have time at the moment, but I'll finish it off tomorrow.
Further editing is likely necessary, but I wanted to get started on getting the two separated.
Oh, and I created a new directory entitled tot_odd for all Original D&D items. _________________ "Ah, Blackadder. Started talking to yourself, I see."

I have changed the reference name of Attack International Wargamers to Dave Casciano Co. and updated that page as well.
I have changed the reference name of Aero Hobbies to Singh, Hugh and updated that page. Aero Hobbies does not appear in either edition of The Manual of Aurania and Singh is listed at the head of authors in both publication irrespective of alphabetical order. _________________

It's amazing how much time passes by when you are trying to edit and fix pages . . .
Anyway . . . I put up pages for the Silver Anniversary D&D Adventure Game, GAZ2 Emirates of Ylaruam and GAZ5 Elves of Alfheim.
I went back and revised many earlier pages with the updated format including adding a link to the research forums (and creating all those links in the forums as well). This was all of the CM series of modules as well as several X series.
I discovered that all the Gazetteer pages said "next module" instead of "next Gazetteer" - revised all of those. Several other cosmetic changes to the Gaz pages to improve appearance and correct minor mistakes.
All main pages have had the Top & Bottom links revised. Core Rules (2) has been tottally removed and no longer exists. Core Rules is the only category. I revised some early items such as the Classic D&D game and Dragonquest Game (changed links, text edits, etc.).
Edited early pages of Companion Rules and Basic (RED) set to match the new format - changed scans and added large scans. (Whenver possible, I try to provide pics of the box set and contents).
Several links on the glossary pages lead to "non-existent" pages - but I put the links in anyway for when the pages finally do get created.
The format is mostly how I want it now, but I am going to eliminate several items from the Miscellaneous page and all of the Wee Warriors, Quest for Fazzlewood and other "Gems". I think the focus will be on Classic D&D from Holmes set up until 1999 (just before 3rd edition).
Wee Warriors, Fazzle and other items will find their home on other pages - such as Original D&D, Wee Warriors, RPGA modules, Gems of Rarity, etc.
(Don't forget to refresh your pages if you view any of this . . . ) _________________ "Ah, Blackadder. Started talking to yourself, I see."

Another few hours in the books . . .
I created pages for Thunder Rift, Quest for the Silver Sword, In the Phantom's Wake, Sword and Shield, Knight of Newts and Assault on Raven's Ruin.
I haven't edited all the links, but this page of modules will now be knows as "Later Edition D&D" rather than "Special Modules".
The title "Modern Modules" will be called "Thunder Rift Modules" and the Thunder Rift setting and Character & Monster Assortment will be listed here as Thunder Rift accessories.
Jade Hare (s) will have their own special heading apart on this page.
Also added Eye of the Wyvern (fast play module).
When do I need all this done by . . ? _________________ "Ah, Blackadder. Started talking to yourself, I see."

Others may disagree with me, but I don't see at as a priority to "get-it-all-done" by the end of June. Although I would like to see the D&D section filled in a bit more in the research area, it doesn't have to be. If you feel swamped, then stop. Do the work that you want to do and not the work you feel you have to do. This has to remain fun and enjoyable. That's the spirit here. _________________ "This is cool."

Okay, I'm back in town and will start to get a little bit of free time. I added PC4 Night Howlers. Also, I edited earlier posts on PC1-3 with the rest of the credit info (having received this from a friend of mine).
Let's see if I can pull it all together for the homestretch. _________________ "Ah, Blackadder. Started talking to yourself, I see."

Added even more Scribe art to the original art gallery, crosslinking each existing entry to the artist and the item, and vice versa. _________________ Tome of Treasures - #1 resource for collectible role-playing games.
