The sites looking quite good! So go check it out.  

Sorry if I didn't come up with any questions.  Been focused helping Rob get the site in shape.  I trust you have some questions about what it was like playing with Gary.


oh yeah loads of good ones too. some from early on right back at the start, then the interaction with all the other "big" names of the RPG industry, how his publishing and articles have developed over time, the who/what/why/how he got into publishing articles simply from playing D&D etc, how things have developed over the years and his thoughts on that, things as they are now, why he's decided to do what hes doing at this point in time and all sorts of other stuff :)

should be good.

i did have a look at the site. starting to look great now. nice simple layout and i like it. cool stuff!

evening :) its 2.55pm here :D

The website now holds a treasure from Jim Holloway, and I know all of you will be impressed as I was!  GREAT cover!

Go to the wesbite and check under the latest news.

PS--Yes, as noted at the site, the release date is mid-July and we are on track to make that at this point.

Yep, couldn't agree with you gents more!  :)  It's a more than stand-up job by Sir Holloway!

Just the s--t-eating grin on the Sk's face, the all meaninful eyes, which express:  "I've-got-your-sword," the twisting of the fighter's arm by him to disarm, the total actions energy and color.  Evertwhere it is a fantastic
piece.

Hey All--Oh yes, got the questions--and some humdingers as we would say.  I was busy with the cover stuff last night and should be getting to it by latest saturday, and then we can post to your site.  And thanks for the opportunity!  You asked some questions that over the years I have not been sked, amazingly so as they are actually interesting ones.  :)

hey guys

just letting you know that rob has replied to me with answers to my questions. wow some of them are really cool and from them i now have a list of others for next time round :D (can almost hear rob sigh from here)

i am still laughing at one of his replies, relating to his favorite gaming moment - pure class and anyone would have wanted to be there to see it :D

this lot will be up on our website later today if i can get ahold of spencer to sort it......

thanks once again Rob :D
