I'm currently in the midst of updating the Castle of the Mad Archmage to get it ready for a new edition. Here's what's changing:
- The OGL is being removed and the text updated to remove OGL-required content
- The text is being made more generically OSR-compatible, rather than specifically for Adventures Dark and Deep
- Stat Blocks are being added
- The Castle Environs is being included, and has been significantly expanded with encounter tables, fuller descriptions of the NPCs, etc.
- The Black Lake (originally only found in one of the One Page Dungeon contests) is being included as level Three-A, and significantly expanded
- The maps are included as an appendix (but a separate map book will be available as an option)
This will be the new standard "core levels" book.
I'm also contemplating a special 10th Anniversary Limited Edition book, that will also include all of the side levels that have been published to date (the Gardens, the Watery Caves/Museum, and a new level that will also be the November adventure module).
The question is, would you be interested in a mega-compilation like that, even though it'll be outdated once another non-core level is published?
