What up nerds! I hope everyone is well and that your polyhedrons are treating you well. Up today, as we meander through the TSR releases over the years, from 1990 is FR11: Dwarves Deep, in tasty original shrink. This is one of my all time favorite covers.

Aha! Everyone who owns this, here's the errata: on the foldout map, "Rimmato" should be: Rimmator
…and in the text, bottom right of a page, adamantine is the durable alloy used so ably for items, but the brittle hard ore it's derived from is "adamantite" ! Please fix. ;}— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 15, 2019
And that cover apparently caused consternation among some distributors: "We look at the cover and we're staring at a DEAD MAN'S FACE!" (Said someone as the product sold out from under him….) ;}

And I rue that I lacked both time and wordcount to detail a roster of 40-plus dwarf clans (who led them, their aims and interests, their feuds with others, where they flourished [or dwindled], and so on…
I even had to admit four pages or so of alloys known only to dwarves…— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 18, 2019
Sorry, "admit" should have been "omit"…my aging brain is addled by too much delving through boxes of old, faded Realmslore.
What am I waiting for? Someone to hand me about three months of free time (oh, and do my taxes for me; that'd free up a few weeks). ;}— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) February 18, 2019
