Yeah, OK, that's a valid point Not just Talisman is "marketable".There are definitely people looking to pick up all the issues with CoC or RQ material, for example; or particular scenarios/settings (such as "Irilian"; 404 Not Found )."Whatever" was probably a bit too catch-all, perhaps.And there was usually better-quality material in most issues than in equivalent Dragons! *g*(well, in the "old days", anyhow )Irilian was a pretty good series. It ran in White Dwarf from #41 through #47 I believe (don't trust me please, I may be off an issue or two). Presented a fantasy city in depth, this was the days before even City of Greyhawk, so the entries were quite useful. I always liked their game and module reviews, even if I hardly ever agreed with them (I think they really ripped my favorite Call of Cthulhu adventure of all time, Masks of Nyarlathotep, and that adventure is widely acknowledged as a classic today!). You could tell they weren't afraid of pissing off someone that might be buying ad space, some of the reviews (especially of american products, of course) were quite scathing and funny.Mike B.And no CD archive, either... lack of which usually helps to keep values above zero (for later issues in that WD timeframe).
