What do I need to have to run a AD&D 1e Campaign?

Hello everyone,

I recently started using Fantasy Grounds and it looks really promising as a VTT. I was curious however, how do I get the data to run an AD&D 1e campaign? Since there is not any preexisting data, what has everyone else done to get setup? I did try installing the OSRIC ruleset, but it was throwing errors. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

I'm a little bias but I was suggest using the AD&D 2E ruleset and it's content. There are even adventures from 1e for it already. The systems are so close as to be the same IMO.

Thanks Celstian!

And the 2E ruleset probably has more features than any other ruleset.

Hello and welcome.

I´d advise using the amazing 2E Ruleset and the following Extensions:

Celestian´s AD&D1E Extension

Sterno´s OSRIC Conversion

and perhaps my

OSRIC Magic Items

This is as close as you´ll get to 1E right now. Have fun!

I'd add a caveat to that. If you're new to FG, I wouldn't recommend using extensions until you are familiar with using FG. Modules (the OSRIC one mentioned) are great tho and contain content to use.
