Thank you for keeping these games alive. A couple years ago I found a copy of Exotic Characters and Worlds if you have any questions about it. Also, do you know if there's a PDF copy of What Price Glory? Thanks and keep up the good work.
Thanks Timothy for your comment. Wow, i had never heard about Exotic Characters and Worlds and was not aware of its existence. It would be nice if someone could provide a scan of it sooner or later.
Yes, i own a copy of What price glory by Lauffenburger, actually it is amongst my most prized items. It was one of the hardest item to find during my collection years and i also own a scanned copy. I plan to shed some light about this little known fantasy rpg in the future. Stay tuned
I was impressed by the description of the villagers, every farmhouse, who lived in each, and what made them tick. It's really a different approach than a more modern "here is a city of 100 houses, 3 of which contain a character that advances the plot". Totally impressed by how many dozens of personalities, livelihoods, petty motivations were conjured up, and communicated in a line or two each. Really a living little world. Cool stuff.

Very fascinating. It's always nice to see these artifacts be brought back to the surface for everyone to enjoy. Thank you.
P.S. A bit of eye candy on page 12. I wonder how many parents knew about that when their kids were buying it?
thank you very much!
Thank you!

I'm concerned if I tried to scan it, it would destroy the binding. It's just cheap old glue, not very good quality.
Well done Catacom Librarian!
