5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome--good resource for DMs, 17 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I'm sure every Dm has a little trouble figuring what new magical items to stump his players with. This resource solves the problem forever.With everything from amulets to daggers to "Goerl's Portable Tackle Box and Canoe" to dice to cards to boxes to bags to art to armor to axes to candles to boats to........... you get the point. There are plenty of items that are beneficial to your characters, and also a few that will annoy them or even be dangerous. There are some joke items, such as the Mystical Brown Coating Box or the above canoe and tackle box, some fun stuff, like flatboxes and cloaks of changing, some useful stuff, like magic carpets and amulets, some powerful stuff, like "The Tarot Deck of Many Things" some Artifacts, and even some cursed stuff. Essential for DMs, but not for players. This item also makes for some memorable moments. I'll always remember the time my players found the Candle of Convocation, which transports them to a high-school pep rally on a different plane of existence, and which they can't leave till they win the cheering contest. The players acted it out, and since our meetings have been outside (thanks to my parents). Anyway, this item is a must-have for all DMs, and if you get it, you will sure be satisfied.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is an excellent reference source for AD&D., 4 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Encyclopedia Magica: P-S Vol 3 (Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Accessory) (Hardcover)
This book describes in detail all the little effects of each item. It helps a lot when I'm actually playing and have no idea exactly what an item does.
