[QUOTE="Paragon Lost, post: 9721679, member: 6966375"] My absolute over all favorite setting to run. I snagged it when it came out and ran it from 1981 until 2000 pretty much. First with RQ based mechanics and when I ran into repeated issues where players who were used to D&D and wouldn't embrace a skill based system with no classes, I swapped to running Palladium Fantasy Rpg (because it had levels and classes and yet a lower hit point system, parries/dodges/blocks and armor absorbed damage. Basically I referred to Palladium Fantasy Rpg at the time as a hybrid system) from late 1982 until 1987. In 1987 I said enough though Palladium Fantasy was fun it was a mess and GURPs had just come out. GURPS 1e/2e/3e ended up being my Thieves' World based campaign system until I finally stopped running it in 2000. Good times, good memories. I also have the Companion and adventures by FASA for it. Edit: [USER=2209]@Voadam[/USER] Zip led revolutionaries. Hanse/Shadowspawn helped them once but wasn't their leader nor a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Sanctuary, also known as the Piffles derogatorily by others. [/QUOTE]
