  1. I have been trying to get my hands on a copy of the first Runequest system with no luck. I remember playing it, but cannot remember the system so well. All those years of the Avalon Hill version have wiped it out. I am trying to figure out looking at the new BRP, how far is it exactly from the orig Runequest? Thanks for your help. Mike
  2. The comment referred to your behaviour, not the board.
  3. Unpleasant, unprofessional, unneccesary. Take the high road.
  4. Well, I think that the pub could probably just house the sell point on their home site have people buy it online, that generates an order to an online printshop and then have an online printshop produce it and ship it in a tube. I love tubes. Mick
  5. By the way, who is this Lulu woman?
  6. That's what I was thinking. If the customer opts to buy the reprint in its new packaging, give them the option of printing the map in large format on their own, the customer still pays the rights for the material, and then can decide to absord the cost of the large scale printing. I love big adventure maps. Our old group had an enormous IKEA plastic frame that we would put our adventure map into, and use grease pencils to leave notes or tracks the moves, that even worked great with battle maps. Recently I lucked out finding an old box set of Genertala for RQ on the cheap. It was in perfect condition. So to run the adventure I scanned and printed the map into 8.5 by 11 sections and taped it together and put it in the frame. Mick
  7. Hi, I have a question for anyone in the publishing world. As other RQ gamers, I have sought for used, slightly used and very used editions of my favourite settings and rule books. Some I cannot afford, specifically a boxed set of Pavis or Big Rubble. I know that they were reprinted in a large book, but what I consider to be a drawback is the lack of BIG maps. I am guessing that adding maps to these sets is a large cost to the publisher. I wonder if the reprints would sell better if they had a map or a code key to a pub site with a download section so you can download a large file and take it to a printer. Ok have to go again, son calling. Mick
  8. Ahh well my son is 4.5 yrs old, and my biggest problem is keeping him out of my dice bag. As soon as I can if he is interested, I'll run him and or his friends through any campaign they want. My buddy from junior high ran both his kids through adventures when they were younger. Mick
  9. Hi, My name is Mike McIntyre. I started rpging in 1978 with the D and D blue box. We played that for years until in the mid eighties I was introduced to RQ. Which I LOVED. It was such a liberating game for player characters that I never wanted to switch back to any system other than that. Of course next was CoC, and then a list of myriad games all played at some time or another from '78 on. Gamma World, Boot Hill, Car Wars, Paranoia, traveller, traveller 2300, and others. Now that my son is yelling for me, I have to go. So any how, I am pretty happy that BRP is on its way. Best Mick
