This toolkit will make your games flow much faster. It has quite a bit of the homework frontloaded so poor, over-worked DMs can stay focused on telling the story. Not only am I a user, but I'm a supporter as well!

One of the best toolkits for AD&D on the web.

I've been using the toolkit as a player now for about 6 months. Having stepped back into AD&D 1e for the first time in decades I've appreciated the way the toolkit automates a lot of the rules. I also like the interface and design, it's easy to get around and find what you're looking for. Moreover, the discord community is active and friendly. I've learned a lot about 1e just from the community. I've played in 2 campaigns, both of which I found through the community. I highly recommend it.

I really appreciate that fact that someone has made tools for 1st edition. There are lots of resources out there for newer versions, but this is great for us old school types!
