Man, I was standing behind Dave Arneson yet somehow I missed being in the shot. That was a great event. Got to meet Monte Cook and thank him for all the fun times.

Today's Something Awful had an article on this too, though much less flattering.

heheh. read CNN's review.
They should have said: it's like cowboys and indians. Only with beholders. And wands that go boom.

That, probably, would've blown their little minds trying to figure out what a beholder was.....

But..... WOLVES?!?!?! yeesh! Maybe if they'd have said "DRAGONS", it've made more sense.

Yeah, right. Susan the Beholder, uh actually just Susan. Right, yeaaaah. Anyway I'm proud of my game! I say congrats to 30 strong years! DnD is only two years older than me.

Interesting that in CNN's related poll--"Do you believe D&D is the best fantasy RPG?", Yes is only leading 60% to 40%

I thought the CNN article was good reading albeit short. To me they did a decent job portraying the gaming and the community in a positive light. I suspect there will be a rash of anti-D&D comments coming out in the near future.

Then again, there were a LOT of wolves and other canines in the Harbinger minis...
