Some people at the club must own this/run this/played this. What are your thoughts? Anyone with any anecdotes worth sharing?

It did sound like the author had an axe to grind with Gary Gygax. I know he's considered the father of D&D, but what was he like as a man?

Maybe I'm a weirdo, but I enjoyed John Wick's article. B)

New edition of Traveller is now available! PDF now available. Print version incoming in April.
If you pre-order the book with Mongoose, email them and they'll send you the PDF for free.

But going by the usual standard of Mongoose's publications - is it really worth the £30 they're asking?

A good point, my hardback is a first edition and is missing various characters and punctuation. I'd like to think they've got it sorted now, but will probably wait for the independent reviews to come in.

I think Mongoose have shrunk to a one man and his dog outfit these days, not sure they even print their own books, so maybe they will improve, quality wise.

If you are in the cancelled Remnants game tonight, plz don't expect to join/spectate my Savage Worlds game, I cannot keep doing it.

Garuda - Thu 2 Jul - 17:10

Okay mate. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Sorry Garuda won’t be at the club tonight. Feeling rough as a rag mans trumpet.

Or he could be my guide dog. According to my last optician appointment I'm as blind as bat.

Can you put him in a ever disguise? False moustache and glasses might do it.
