The {OSR old school renaissance} house rule wiki Links To Wisdom arose out of The Jovial Priest’s post The future of OSR blogging... where he lamented the lack of *memory* in the blogosphere. Jeff Rients then suggested a wiki in the comments and finally I offered to host the wiki on my Campaign Wiki site.

Links To Wisdom

The future of OSR blogging...

Campaign Wiki

Campaign Wiki is like a super simple, no frills wiki farm for role-playing campaigns in the vein of Obsidian Portal and Epic Words. Thus, the infrastructure was already available. I just had to visit the Campaign Wiki main page and type the name (one word → LinksToWisdom), and copy and paste the outline The Jovial Priest had suggested in his post What do you think to an OSR House Rule wiki/blog aggregation site?

Obsidian Portal

Epic Words

What do you think to an OSR House Rule wiki/blog aggregation site?

As The Jovial Priest said on his post the OSR House Rule Aggregation Site - LIVES, the vision for the wiki is this:

the OSR House Rule Aggregation Site - LIVES

1. it’s a repository of links to blog posts or forum posts that clarify a rule or propose a house rule

2. it’s organized around the B/X D&D by Moldvay and Cook table of contents

3. it’s a wiki where anyone can add a link to a post

This is where everybody else come in: somebody needs to be doing the real work of actually adding the links. 🙂
