Have installed the GBC and it is very useful.
Currently playing gateway to savage frontier with it . It has so little treasure and lots empty areas, but still having fun
The Agents Dune box set is a true idiot proof starter set. You get quite a lot in the box.
The game play is moderately narrative, and conflict can take a while to get your head round.
I like it
When you go in the duelling halls take of your armour and shield. Your double never equips them but you can. You will mostly win.
Save the game a lot.
Enjoy the rope guild
