He sells the recasts of a particular type of miniature and then when he eventually gets busted by the IP owner, he apologizes, says that he didn't know becuase he bought them at a convention, and then stops selling them. There are 5 or 6 different posts in that thread that say almost the exact same story, which is a little too coincidental for me. Like a wise man once said, "I don't like my coincidences to be quite so coincidental".

And, as is often the case, WiKipedia is wrong; in this case about this being the first non-TSR D&D module -- Judges Guild had been in business for a year puiblishing D&D stuff before Vampire queen came out.rmaker

GenCon UpdatePlans are proceeding apace for the Premier Wargaming Event of ‘76. We are currently lining up all the judges that we'll need for all the tournaments. We will have complete listings of that in the next issue. In the meantime, a peek at a couple of new items.Bob Blake, Rt. 1 Box 47, Valparaiso, IN 46383, needs DM's to help run a mammoth D&D tournament, that will span all three days of the con. The end result, after three days of dungeoneering, with the same characters, will be a champion Mage, Fighter, Cleric, Elf and Dwarf. Each participant will run a predetermined character, and all participants will be judged on performance, with eliminations. Sounds really interesting to hear Bob tell it. Get the full lowdown from him if you are interested in being a DM.
