Goodman Games

It's hard to remain excited for something so far out. What are you talking about? :) I'm so excited about the December 2012 release of The Hobbit! Time moves so quickly these days, 2013 will be here before I know it. April is like two weekends away when you have two young children and a more-than-f...

But, if the stars align, we may have some exciting news for the pre-order crowd.

Very interesting.

This is wonderful news!

The Fiend Folio was my favorite of the three monster manuals. In large part to the unique art.

And after the player's PC have defeated the vile pumpkin beast, they look to the treasure. The DM says, "You got a rock!"

Very neat!

My Dad got it for me anyway....but he had to read it first. I like your dad's style. That's how things went in my house. My folks had to review things before it came into my sister's and mine hands. I remember when Star Wars came out. I was eight and DYING to see it. Since it was PG, my dad and my ...

:oops: I can't believe I left C&C off my list. When I was typing I told myself "self, I know I have 4 rules sets I use and why can't I come up four?" I should have just checked my signature on the boards. :lol: Senility: "It's not just for your grandparents any more." :wink:

finarvyn wrote:What I end up doing, honestly, is just cross off all of the 3E monster stuff and running the DCC module with other (simpler) rules, usually OD&D, Labyrinth Lord, or DCC RPG.

I do the same, only using C&C rules (or the DCC-RPG beta).

JediOre, I assume that yours is supposed to be a list of things that you discovered in the 80's, not things that were made in the 80's. Otherwise, half of your list would be wiped out. :lol: Sounds like we enjoy many of the same things, however. 8) Finarvyn, you assume correctly. I was eleven in 19...

Some times I wish I was still in the eighties. :lol: So do I. The memories are grand. The games that come to mind: AD&D Bard's Tale Star Raiders, the Temple of Apshai, and my glorious Atari 800 (My favorite system to date) Joust, just one of many great arcade games Dark Tower Risk Stratego Land...

Ha! Done! But really, we just need to get you to GaryCon ...

Where and when is GaryCon next up?

True that!

On the same trip Roslof's widow commented that before Joseph got in touch with him, her husband had begun to wonder if his art was relevant any longer. The DCC RPG is a testament that there are still fans out there (us) in love with the the work of the greats. //H Harley, thanks for mentioning this...

Like a pig with wings!

Doug K and I tried playing Dark Tower at GaryCon last year (sans the rule book, I think). We tried inferring the rules from the different sounds coming out of the board, but finally gave up and started drinking. I'd love to see a game played correctly. (I can still remember seeing the DT ads in the...

We'll I went out and filled out the questionnaire.

Mr. Lloyd, I wish you well with your research.

You'll need to give us a summary of your findings!

Here are some other examples of his work:

Wow, that was my thought about 3rd edition. I don't even want to see 4th edition.

Hmm, interesting idea! Anybody happen to have any leads on his contact info? Joesph, I've made contact with Mr. Pepper! I really did not think I would be able to make contact with him. I was not sure I was going to be able to speak to the man when he picked up. I choked! I will send you his phone n...

The Flash version Harley pointed to is very close to the original, but it lacks the fun of playing with two to four friends. Pressing the keypad on the tower and waiting as the mechanism spins about to reveal what happened to you was always a blast! But to get back on target, I would love to see his...

The best kind!

Bar none, Dark Tower is my all time favorite board game of all time. My eye's sweated this year when I got my game out of the basement to introduce it to my children, only to find the tower no longer works.

Yep! That's him!

Hi Mr. Goodman,

Have you given thought to see if Bob Pepper would be willing to illustrate some of the art work for the DCC-RPG?

Mr. Pepper is the artist behind the art of Milton Bradleys' Dark Tower game and Dragonmaster card game. Very evocative artist.

Just some grist for thought.

Take care.

Hey Finarvyn,

Would you mind moving this thread to "Actual Play Reports" since that seems to be a better fit for this thread.

Thanks.
