It will be one of the most treasured periodicals in my collection. [/i]

Pyramid of Light was a module i wrote at the request of Dave Arneson as one of the tournament rounds for a gaming convention in the 1980s (i forget which one). when it was run, it was done as a D&D module, but when we tried to publish it in our magazine - Adventure Gaming - TSR objected saying certain material was copyrighted. so i redid it, with some help, making it generic.it was published as an insert to one of the issues of Adventure Gaming. the editor was Tim Kask (former editor of TSR's The Dragon), i was asst ed and marketing director, and it was published out of cincinnati, oh.as an interesting side note, the magazine shared the same building as Ral Partha.boy, did this ever bring back memories lol.
