Yup, got mine about a month ago, via the Kickstarter. It's very well made and the campaign looks fun.

Interesting, maybe an age difference point of view? I've always looked at "campaign setting' to be just that. The setting allowing you to design adventures for player characters to play in. The lore, history, npcs, weather, geography etc. Often bullet point adventure ideas as well and if you...

"Borderlands, RPG Supplement for Runequest (Chaosium): I could easily be wrong, but this might be the first campaign boxed set for an RPG. - Andrew Peregrine I'd consider the campaign setting for "Thieves' World that they did in 1981 before Borderlands. Own both, both excellent. Thieves'...

Mad Max came out in 1980 in the US. Road Warrior in 1982 in the US.

Revision should have happened ten years ago. What needs to happen now is a new edition. I'll probably snag it, no I know I'll snag it. I'll just end sighing most likely as I read through and then glance at my GURPS 2e Box sets and the early "unrevised" 3e books that I still use. I collected...

I was a fan of the Thieves' World books before the release of Chaosium's Thieves' World box set and later companion book plus the FASA written Thieves' World adventures. So when the box set came out I leaped on it. I ran it and built it out using RuneQuest, then Palladium Fantasy rpg and later...

Just realized that I know Erica. She's a lot of fun as a GM and player here locally. Some days I can be so dense. lol Great interview.

That's very cool. Hmm at that time in my life I had been in West Germany for a few years and mostly doing border patrol along the West/East German and Czech borders as a recon scout. I think I'd rather have been in your Greek Art class though!

You know, I gotta agree. Great points on why we enjoyed it. I wonder newer generations of gamers would view Stormbringer. I repeatedly get this feeling that in the last couple decades that there has been a big change in what people enjoy and will dive right into. For that matter, it feels...

Paranoia Press did some fun stuff for Traveller, including the SORAG book. :) Stormbringer was soo much fun even if unbalanced.

Good deal. I don't recall playing Battlesuit but I did play a lot of Fantasy Trip (melee/wizard), Ogre and Car Wars. Nice to have that put to bed. BattleSuit.

Just got back from my ride thirty minutes ago and the first thing I thought of was GDW's Team Yankee, the First Battle rule set. Pulled it down and its hex but no dots in the center. Strike out again.

Went and looked up Star Fleet Battles speaking of Task Force Games. Maybe GDW? I'd swear it was 1970s wargame though and not 1980s. Ah well, Getting ready for an evening ride on my new motorcycle, so I'll have to search more later. lol Edit: BTW Points for having Universe and FASA's Renegade...

Sean seems like a nice guy and very bright, but his design outlook and what he enjoys are something that I don't care for.

I won't disagree on DF. I went all in on the Dungeon Fantasy Kickstarter and actually have two of everything that they released for it. That said, the power level (250 point start), the snarky munchkin-ism implied etc made it feel limited. I say this is a me problem because when I ran 2e/3e from...
