Rob Kuntz was an exceptional player from my Dad's stories. He was devious and could map dungeons in his head w/o getting lost (not bad if you ever played in Castle Greyhawk). My Dad recalled with great relish how he designed the Tomb of Horrors specifically to consternate Rob- and sure enough he managed to get a dead orc in the bottom of every pit in the ToH  Note: Robilar was a CE fighter that often used his humanoid minions as canon fodder when dungeoneering. |
You played when you were 4 or 5? Holy cow. I have a nephew who is going to be 4 this spring, and I can't wait to play with him. He is a smart creative kid and I know we will all have a blast. I figured he would have to be 7 or 8 before he was able to play, but I think I just re-adjusted my time-table.
What game did you play at age 4? Not AD&D right? Was it Basic, or Original D&D? Or some variation your father made up?
