It's Issue 150! The newsletter is almost three years old! Even a goal as humble as surviving for three years is only possible because of the support of dozens and dozens of people. I can't name you all but if the newsletter continues to exist, it's because of your help! Thank you!
Sounds like some great sessions. I am SUPER ITCHY to try out both Mork Borg, Cy_Borg, and Mothership. Formed a good group of players here in Japan, so that was fun, but I don't know if any of them have played. I haven't. How about yourself?
I’m taking my time, road-marching alongn the trail back to “Dungeons & Dragons - 1974”... in part because D&D was my intro to tabletop roleplaying games, and I want to know how it all came together... and in part because D&D’s 50th is sometime next year and I’d really like to understand how the game and industry have grown over the intervening decades. Delving so deeply back to the origins of this particular game has led me to Dave Wesely, The Braunstein games, Arneson’s Blackmoor Game, Totten’s Strategos, and even Avalon Hill’s Napoloenic games. Mostly I’m running D&D and Dungeon Crawl Classics, these days, so this “postcard” from your forays into other TRPG realms is like a breath of fresh of air blown through the dusty crypts... or perhaps a ray of sunshine beaming into the dark basements of yesteryear. Thank you!

That's a really good question (RPG skill!) and I will think on it!
