Perhaps it's nothing to worry about, but I've noticed that the number of views for a number of attachments in one of my posts has been increasing dramatically over the past couple of days. Now, I'm not very well versed in how the interwebs works, but it seems rather odd that all of a sudden...

It's a tricky question. But here's some I've found an utter joy to watch, in no particular order (although Carrie Coon absolutely blew me away the mostest of all of them): Carrie Coon as Nora Durst in The Leftovers She is so good in this role, especially in Season 1, that it is hard to believe...

Speaking as one, I can assure you that this is not true. I mean, what would we do for servants?

Artist: Emmanuel Source: White Dwarf 40 (Games Workshop, 1983) Depicting: Um... Well, since my sense of "weirdness" has nothing to do with "gonzoness" (I have always detested Gonzo and the Star Trek critters with a passion, although age has softened my resolve a bit in the first case - poor guy...

I was wondering the same thing. The document itself rather looks like a submission, what with the staples and all. The yellow bit looks a bit more like something that may have been in a zine, for it has a strong resemblance to what the pages in early issues of Alarums & Excursions looked like...

I did some digging and found where I got the file from, so a shout out to Jon Peterson for posting it. Playing at the World Vette sjit, wat?* Agreed, though I suppose I can see why Aronson did it the other way round in a weird kind of way. *) Which properly translates to "It rather is, isn't...

Yup. At least it says so on the yellow bit. So that would make the Aronson illusionist date back to either 1974 or 1975 depending on what month in 1975 Greyhawk was published.

Et voilà! Fascinating piece. Unfortunately I can't for the life of me remember where I got this from. 't Was fairly recent and I must have it bookmarked somewhere but there you go. Also, this rather seems to be some sort of original manuscript rather than how it appeared in The Wild Hunt? Or...

Well..., technically..., that isn't entirely what Peter Aronson thought. 😄 Source: Peter Aronson, The Strategic Review Vol. 1, No. 4 (TSR, 1975) OK. All kidding aside, I agree, of course, that Illusionists aren't allowed to use wands of magic missile because, well..., Gygax rules! So I guess...

Well, technically, they could. Source: Peter Aronson, in: The Wild Hunt 19 (1977) For the purpose of which we shall magnanimously assume that "(ALL)" stands for "(any)". All of which is a good thing, for otherwise I'd have to retroactively kill off the Illusionist I played, um..., some time ago.

Allow me to add everything that Robert Kuntz made over the years after his separation from TSR (and especially before that). Now that would really be something.

Heh, true that. And I do believe Games Workshop has a strong and well-established tradition of not being forthcoming in this respect - at all. Edit: g>G

I'm not familiar with this OAR series, so with the caveats that GG leaves most of the adventure, plot, and NPCs intact and that I haven't said this if they don't, I'd say that people would be well-served if they did an anthology of some of the best scenarios that appeared in the White Dwarf...

I've always um... not like liked DCS art much and I'm not so sure whether it was all deadlines. In fact... never mind. To be fair, though, he did have one redeeming quality, and that is that he somehow had an extremely good eye for - and understanding of - 'composition' and 'dynamics'. I mean...

So how does Greyhawk fit in? I suppose one could argue that discovering and working with old Greyhawk for the first time was much like buying and driving your first 205 GTi*. It was unknown and (almost) unique, challenging, daunting even, crude and offensive, broke down all the time, and tried...

So my first reaction was: "Seriously? How can anyone not know that that's Dave Trampier?" But then I realized that this obviously meant that something was amiss, and so it is. So where has the DAT gone that I've seen on this illustration since, well, forever? Hmm... I'm sure you went through...
