Yes! Exactly, that was it. Maybe we played together? I only knew Ben from the alt.rec.trading-cards.jyhad news-group, and of course playing with him that one time in Boston, and at least once out here in LA.

Nice! I played once with a group over a game store in Somerville. We're talking late 90's while I was visiting family.

Yes, fair, sorry for the thread drift

Great conclusion, thanks Michael @talien for sharing.

It'll never happen for a variety of reasons, but a 4e SRD with just the rules would be amazing.

Have run once, have played twice in my indie ttrpg group, and it's not for me. In fact just sold off my entire kickstarter rewards. If you are willing to play online, I know there's a discord for the Gauntlet games that you should be able to find games...

I only read The Man in the Queue, which most folks acknowledge is not her best (I mean, why would an author's first in a genre be their best?!) Maybe I'll go back for Miss Pym.

Certainly getting a bump from the 7.3 that MR has to 8.2. May have to track that bad boy down.

It's in there, but I don't know about updated. Oh, actually, I own both. When I get home, I'll do a quick compare and contrast and report back...

We believe in you! Also, it never hurts to have a party member who can take sneak attacks against spiders (aka, hold the can of Raid). Or Armor up with long gloves and long sleeves...

But I didn't actually like the resolution of the murder

Oh! I just read the first in the series that I found while on vacation at a thrift store "Expert in Murder". I liked the murder set up, I liked the structure where she had chapters that alternated POV. I liked the protagonists - Archie Penrose and Josephine Tey (unlike Elizabeth MacKintosh's...

I stick with cozies as much as possible... Or Rex Stout.

If you pull in the 90's and pull in card games, I still regularly play Vampire the Eternal Struggle CCG (fka Jyhad). I'm in ~25 asynchronous online games right now, and have played roughly 10-15 IRL games this year. The one game I really would like to play from the 70's is the one that got me...

I mean, if based on Star Trek, a red tabard pretty much has to die every session, yes?

@dave2008 had a cool thread about the lords of the 9 hells from a couple of years ago. Maybe that'll be of use?

I'll be running my lads through Lost Caverns, but have to get them from the Evermoors, where they are about to finish Caverns of Tsojcanth as re-presented in Yawning Portal; to the foothills just beyond Mithril Hall...

I have actually used this for writing a scenario for a Freebooters on the Frontier game, where the world was co-created with my players. Had a week to come up with something. They had fun, so bottom line, it worked. (I just had the pleasure of meeting for the first time and playing a couple of...

I always thought it was one of the Milton Bradley "GameMaster" series of games - Shogun (Samurai Swords), Fortress America, Axis & Allies, etc; but I guess it was AH All the way...
