That's the one Jay Exonauts! That game was a huge part of my youth. Those RIP markers were all over my house, eventually. Come to think of it, we got into D&D because my brother played Dungeon! at a party and wanted a copy and we got D&D by mistake...

That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
Correction in comments, I'm still mad Ok, I found out the 5e allosaurus from Tomb of Annihilation was only CR2 and was outraged, so I made a comparison of a D&D character and allosaurus specimen MOR 693.

From Voyageurs National Park on FB: Called “Catamaran” by locals, Bert Upton is among the strangest of historical characters on area waters. He lived in a hut built over a dug-out at Squirrel Narrows. Found frozen to death in the 1930s by Kettle Falls pioneer Oliver Knox; Upton was perched lifeless in the snow just a half-mile from his home. Shunning civilization, Upton defined the word hermit. First spotted rowing his crude log raft on Namakan, no one knows how he got there. Upton’s accent implied an English heritage but any personal inquiries brought a stony silence. Some suspected him a man fleeing the law; others saw a bizarre outcast; everyone knew he was peculiar. Just five feet tall and wildly unkempt, Catamaran wore hacked-off pants and walked barefoot with a stick. Winter demanded shoes but no socks, a cast-off Mackinaw, and a trailing cap made from the leg of old underwear. He was oddly religious, and suspicious of being poisoned.

I don't recognize the board. Which edition is that?
ReplyDelete(Aside: I'm very VERY tempted to draw up my own print-and-play version)

ReplyDeleteJamey Crook That's the one that I had too -- my favorite box and board art. Loved everything about it. Otus didn't have a thing to do with it. Found out years ago it was all Jim Roslof's work! (I was totally under the impression it was Otus too, BTW.) https://sites.google.com/site/zenopusarchives/home/artists-of-holmes-basic/jim-roslof-art-bibliography
