grodog wrote:http://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=19261 is a Dragonsfoot poll about whether folks would ever possibly be interested in buying a CD of scans of the original levels of Castle Greyhawk. I thought some folks here might consider chiming in, given that some of us have been waiting about 30 years for the Castle

I'd much rather just have the professionally printed version and go from there. The fact it has taken 30 years to get this thing published is really quite ridiculous. I see gigantic projects released everyday for RPGs and none of them took 30 years to complete. Let's put it this way, haven't even bought any of the recent Gygax Castle Zagyg releases yet.Mike B.

Monte Cook's Ptolus looks very interesting.http://www.montecook.com/cgi-bin/page.cgi?ptolusBut $120 is quite a sum for a 672 page book, a CD-ROM and other "goodies".I would much rather have a nice box set with some archival quality maps done up similar to the way Decipher did the Maps of Middle-Earth for the Lord of the Rings RPG. Fifty bucks would be about the highest amount I would pay for something like that.

We have a lot of industry figures, most are still living ... and I just can't afford to be paying for people's names. I'll have to get my gaming history in other places, I guess.
