(TFT) Re: Introduction and an Errant School of Thought

["joel sira" <jodasi@hotmail.com>]

What you say is true. You might as well play ad&D, or arduin.

But, If you decide that TFT is your way of life, like some of us like to 
thing but dont practice <grin>, then you get the merit and admiration of the 
faceless few.


Here are some of the benefits of taking on the task of converting systems:

1)Converting from one system to another builds problem solving skills.

2)Inspires creativity.

3)Gives you insight into game design.

4)Learn the lost of game balence.

5)Explore the lost art of game rule fudging.

6)Experience first hand the thankless job of coverting.

7)Learn how to take constructive critism.

8)Takes up even more hard drive or shelf space.

Id like to see some of your arduin stuff. what parts of arduin do you want 
to start with??

Dear All,

I signed up last December 99 and have been a quiet observer all these
previous months ...

i had been a player of TFT since 1984 under Alan Robles and because of my
work assignment, have stopped in 1997, but my interest in it is still very
much alive and strong... I must say that I am very glad that it still has a
very active following despite it being OOP for many years now.

I must admit that the posts have been tremendously informative for me and
that it has made me renew my interest in the game ... nay - the experience.

the past few weeks i have been toying with the idea of converting Arduin
Grimoire thingies (lots of them) into TFT ... except that i have been
considering the repercussions of converting stuff ... like ... if i convert
Arduin or for that matter, AD&D stuff into TFT ... i might as well play
Arduin or AD&D rather than TFT, its a rather tricky and thorny issue ... so 
i
would like to ask your views and opinions on this ...

Best regards to all,

Jaypus "the Barbarian Errant"
