>>>Magnis's Horde of Swords<<<
_____________________________________________________________________________

 I hope the following 12 swords can be of some use to players and DM's 
 alike.  I have been playing AD&D for 12 yrs and have many items which I
 hope to upload. I am currently working on a program for windows for many
 AD&D applications, and hope to have it completed soon. The items below where
 created for the AD&D game, but can easily be used in AD&D 2nd edition game.
 If you have any comments or suggestion, please let me know.
