[QUOTE="RealAlHazred, post: 9489817, member: 25818"] This is, indeed the best version of the Dancing Hut. It remains memorable to me decades after I read it. The James Bond 007 game was one of the more successful movie-to-RPG adaptations. JB007 is a very, very good game, that maintains the feel of the James Bond movies in the game; this is no mean feat, and I've always been impressed by the excellent support material. [I][B]Thrilling Places[/B][/I] remains an excellent supplement if a GM is running a modern game and the PCs go to an exotic "Bondian" locale. What many don't know is that, there's a retroclone of the JB007 RPG put out by Expeditious Retreat Press. It's called [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/128259/classified?affiliate_id=22291'][B][I]Classified[/I][/B][/URL], and it's very faithful to the original. The comparison I heard was, [I]Classified[/I] is to [I]JB007[/I] as [I]OSRIC[/I] is to [I]AD&D[/I]. They've only put out one scenario for it that I can see, [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/128260/classified-operation-rogue-lion?affiliate_id=22291'][I][B]Operation Rogue Lion[/B][/I][/URL], but you can easily use all of the old JB007 scenarios with it.
