Cas,

I have two boyz years 8 and 6.  They are interested but still too immature
for the rules to play TFT.  I've played Heroquest with them and one time
Warhammer Quest which they enjoyed very much.  But it is asking too much to
play TFT yet.

Every Friday afternoon in my classroom at school, I have a group of seventh
graders who play Advanced Heroquest, that they enjoy a lot.  At ages 12+ is
when the kids really get into this STUFF OF IMAGINATION.  Mainly because
their reading ability is better.  Two or three of the kids are reading The
Hobbit and another two LOTR.

The problem though is that they enjoy playing the game so much they tell
their friends, who also want to join.    I remember GMing a D&D game in the
70's that had 12 player characters = tough work (rule arguements, trifling
with each other, etc....).   The best number of players to play a game with
I have found has been three and possibly four.  This led to less arguements
and it became easier to share the pizza.

Yours in Cidri,
Justin
