A Silver-Based Market with City & Rural Prices for Early Rules Games

I’ve prepared an equipment list for my open table, which:

• is meant for earliest rules traditions (all weapons deal 1d6 damage in normal combat)
• is priced to a silver piece (SP) standard
• has city & rural prices
• is Open Game Content

Given the above perks, I thought it might be useful for others.

Here are the available formats:

• Self-contained HTML: open-market.html (with thanks to normalize.css and sakura.css)
• PDF: open-market.pdf
• OpenDocument Text: open-market.odt
• Markdown: open-market.md

The list is also included at the end of this post.

If you have a comment, an issue, would like to generate your own additional formats, or would like to collaborate, source files can be found on gitlab: https://gitlab.com/acodispo/open-market/

Collaboration is especially encouraged: add weights, add more equipment, fix errors, etc! Pull/merge requests will be reviewed & probably accepted!

It took me a few hours to get this content together in a usable format. If you end up using it, consider dropping a tip in my ko-fi jar.
