        The items listed were taken from the 1st ed. Players Handbook, 2nd ed. PH, Aurora's Whole Realms Catalogue, Al-Qadim (by TSR). Some items were left out such as greek fire oil, others were added by me. These items are a general list of things you can buy in a city. Prices and items may vary as to availablity and workmanship.

        >From: elder@bullet.ecf (ELDER J David) Subject: Item lists Originator: elder@bullet.ecf.toronto.edu

        This list was posted to a mailing list that I used to follow. It covers costs and weights for a variety of common items. Although the terminology is reminiscent of AD&D I feel it could be used in any fantasy environment with only a small amount of conversion. I have found it useful for stocking stores and generally for the concept of product availability. Recently…

        2/8/01 From bradds@concentric.net (Bradd W. Szonye):

        Historically, most coins were made of silver until the very late middle ages and early renaissance. Gold coins were more common in Italy and the Byzantine empire, but trying to maintain currency in two different metals (gold and silver) was a frequent cause of economic trouble, because of the fluctuation of relative values. Following is some information on historic coins and values that you may be able to use in your game.…

        In most campaigns, players don't care what their coins look or feel like, but with a little investment in work, you can add that touch of extra realism. Here are the coins used in my Zioth campaign.

        Rang's economy is based on barter and silver, the later dominating commercial activity in towns and cities. The silver Aglar (ă'glǒr) has been minted since the early days of

  • Moose Factsplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigMoose Facts

    * Did you know that “Moose Watching” is illegal in twelve cities and towns throughout the USA, because of fatal injuries caused by it? * Did you know that Bullwinkle Moose was the real name of a Pennsylvania farmer? The show was inspired by Mr. Moose, who was a friend of the producer's sister. Rocky Squirrel, however, was a completely original name.
  • Moose Pageplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigMoose Page

    Looking at this Moose page, you may ask, “what is this infatuation you have with moose?”

    I'm not quite sure I can explain it myself. Maybe it's their huge size (male moose grow to 7'6“ at the shoulder and 1000lb). Perhaps it's their agile movements (moose can move very quietly through underbrush, despite their size and mass). Maybe it's those fancy gadgets they carry on top of their heads (moose antlers can measure as much as 6ft from tip to tip, and weigh up to 90lb as a pair). May…
