2E Rules Online
Posted: Thu Aug 30, 2012 4:46 pm
I was searching online for a thief-related something for the campaign I am building and stumbled upon what appears to be a legally hosted complete (?) set of the 2E rules online which is free to browse subject to a Use Agreement (copied below). I accept that 2E may not be the edition of choice for many out there, but this is such a wealth of information I couldn't help but share.

USE AGREEMENT
By using the following web pages you agree that you will not make copies of this legally purchased (versus licensed) Core Rules CD data (versus a computer program). In addition, you agree to view only a single page at a time. You also acknowledge that the Core Rules material may be copyrighted. You may temporarily borrow access (we lend you free access without compensation) to this Private Non-Profit Archive's Core Rules CD data files at the location of the data (here in the internet, a location we must both explicitly come to communicate and share with each other) in exchange for your compliance with this use agreement. If you do not agree to all of the terms of the use agreement, you do not have permission to use these web pages.
The first-sale doctrine is a limitation on copyright that was recognized by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1908 (see Bobbs-Merrill Co. v. Straus) and subsequently codified in the Copyright Act of 1976, 17 U.S.C. § 109. The doctrine allows the purchaser to transfer (i.e., sell, lend or give away) a particular lawfully made copy of the copyrighted work without permission once it has been obtained.
If you use and enjoy the library, please pop into the Forum and tell us what you are doing with AD&D these days! If you have any problems using the interface, clear your browser cache and refresh your web page.
