Great suggestion and I have added it.  Over on my blog I have over 450 blogs listed. I am gradually going to update this thread with them as I have/find time. Of course anyone is welcome to do what you did, just post the link so all I have to do is copy and paste.

[Mr Darke]

I'll throw mine in for consideration:  Grimmhaus.  I am trying to get it back up and going and have some future plans for it.

I just subscribed. Thanks for pointing us to this one. I like your description of OS play for New School folks.

As someone who has deliberately returned straight to OS, I can't really imagine playing with all those rules!

Here's another link. Anders Blixt is a legendary RPG designer here in Sweden and he's got a blog where he posts about games, books, movies, science and other stuff. Some entries are in Swedish, but nowadays most seem to be in English. The blog is not pure Old School, but every now and then he writes about the "old days". He's been into RPG's since 1977, and apart from being heavily involved in the development of the two bestselling Swedish RPG brands (Drakar & Demoner and Mutant), he has also produced material for games like Traveller and MERP.

Corrected the heinous error of omission & added two of your blogs to the list; as Northwind & Ruins of Arduin are now listed. I have to read through the others in greater detail before adding them. Well screw it I'll add the 5e one as well as it is a real god blog & shows how you can apply Old School ideas to modern games.

That is an impressive blog that you have there.

Your hub of blogs in toto is what I was referring to. Have an exalt.

'taint the size, it's that an ASCII forum reader doesn't see signatures.
