If this is a joke: Kudos to them.

If not, I wonder what their first character was??? ;P

[Tarren Dei]

Okay. So who's going to make one of those for us?

[S.Baldrick]

It brings out a new meaning to the term "Old School Game".

[Fake Healer]

Wow! That held up WAY better than the OD&D ones that came in the original box sets. I love it but $17K is a bit much....

[Shelbrune88]

Must have been tough to fit XVIII on one of those little sides

As a friend of mine said: Maybe they played a futuristic game placed in a post-civilisation middle-age!

Edit: I may have something about the characters, another friend of mine got his PHD in roman history, I'll post if I do.

They were all griping when edition -4.0 was upgraded to -3.5.

[Amelia]

I agree that that is some seriously cool stuff.
