Via the Land of Nod comes this, the complete AD&D 2nd Edition Monstrous Manual(s), html-ized and (apparently) WotC-approved, for your perusal.
This is obviously a project very dear to my heart, as you can probably guess. Perhaps the best thing about this site is that it also includes illustrations and monsters from the setting-specific Monstrous Compendia, like the Planescape and Kara-Tur ones.
I've noticed that a few monsters are missing, but it's still pretty great.
ReplyDeleteHeh. I unknowingly used at site the other day while talking about cyclops sharks (aka Spelljammer's scavvers http://www.lomion.de/cmm/scavver.php ).
ReplyDeleteThere is no way that is WotC-approved. Look at the domain name. It's probably just a hassle for them to get a cease and desist notice through, if they have noticed it.
ReplyDeleteBrendan, I'm just assuming, by using the word "approved", that WotC don't care about it.
ReplyDeleteHow is it different from this:

Zak, I think that link only has the 2nd edition AD&D Monstrous Manual, whereas the one in the post includes various monstrous compendia from different campaign settings.
ReplyDeleteah, i see.
ReplyDeletewho are these wonderful automatic people willing to do all this typing and scanning just because they love us?
That is amazing, serious piece of work!
