No, I didn't think you were... I was hoping you might have some sort of glimmer on when a Melee Kickstarter might show up, though. However, we will wait! ;-)

Creating a similar set of rules without infringing on rights left us with an "interesting" set of game rules, with compromises along the way, and for me, just enough to get by to allow continuation of programmed modules that had a similar look and feel. I certainly hope SJG can just address the few slight imbalances and typos and paste-up errors in the original rules, then, without the work-arounds that DCG had to use (IMO), make them available to the public once again, especially to younger gamers. My biggest wish would be high quality (along the lines of Death Test, Orb Quest, etc.) programmed modules that support the world of Cidri as presented in the original TFT rules. It is, I think, what DCG strived for, and I give credit to George Dew for having enough fortitude and love of the game to keep an homage to TFT alive through his Dark City Games efforts over these past years. |

Wow! Melee and Wizard were two of my first games from back when, well, they were in print. I have looked off and on for copies just for the memories but never won an auction or stumbled across them. This is up there with the reprint of ogre for me. I look forward to the opportunity to order lots of t shirts on the Kickstarter (and the games).
Ogre, melee, wizard...now you just need to reprint my youth. |

Steve has made a lot of progress on the game and we expect to have more info next month.

Watching the Daily Illuminator should get you the best info on the game. I can report that many of us have worked on The Fantasy Trip over the last several weeks, with some of the team working daily on the game.

Yes, I GM'd last week and Sam and Randy took time off from autoduelling to slay a bunch of hobgoblins, all of whom deserved it.
I am using the long weekend, now that I have my computer back (thank you, Apple, for the speed), to review Advanced Melee and Advanced Wizard. The file for In The Labyrinth is with Ben and Andrew right now. |

Re: December 26, 2017: The Fantasy Trip Returns Home
That is absolutely fantastic. I must say, I'm rather surprised at the speed and level of effort here, given the many, many other things you guys have on your plate!
Very much appreciated by this particular fan-boy, though! ;-) |
