New Big Dragon Games Released CC2 Creature Cache

CC 2 Creature Cache comes a full 7 years after CC1 (PDF is PWYW),  the bestiary I used to stock my OSR adventure AA01 Purging Woth N'rld Oakwyn's Muddy Hole. If it is half as intriguing as CC1, the list of 200 monsters boasted between the pages of this new release will be well worth the price of admission. Look, Richard LeBlanc is successful enough he can drive traffic to Lulu. You know he puts out quality stuff if he has that kind of power!

Besides new monsters which every DM needs in spades, LeBlanc is always kind enough, and industrious enough, to include a drawing of each of the creatures. Mandatory, I know, in any monster book,  but you don't always get. I like he doesn't shy away from depicting adventures being slaughtered by his monsters. I love that throwback to old school printed materials which usually had one or more pics of some nameless adventurer taking it in the shorts. LeBlanc captures this feel in his drawings and adds to the appeal of the overall package. Black and white, 2-column as god intended.
