There were other games which had solid mechanics, but the Fame and Fortune part was relatively new territory. TSR didn't usually innovate much after the early 80's in RPG design, but this game was an exception. I don't recall that we played a HUGE amount of it, but we did play enough to have a couple of campaigns and some durable characters. To be perfectly honest, aside from 1e GW I think this was pretty close to the only other TSR game we played much (well, there was also Boot Hill, but that game was pretty limited in its scope, fun though). I think it was just eclipsed by some even better designs and as TSR descended into oblivion it just got mostly lost. While there are more modern games nowadays it still stands up reasonably well, which is a lot to say for a game of this vintage.</blockquote>
