(TFT) Greetings and Salutations!

[David Peterson <peterson@vigyan.com>]

Howdy!  I am new to the TFT mailing list and would like to present the 
customary letter of introduction.  Like many on the list, I began playing 
Melee in 1977 and Wizard as soon as it was released.  I picked up these and 
many other games at Rider's Hobbies in Flint, Michigan and have been 
enjoying wargaming in various was ever since.  I currently reside in 
Poquoson, Virginia and play occasionally with the Atomic Comics Emporium 
game club.

I have been enjoying reactivating The Fantasy Trip over the past couple 
weeks, and have been enjoying the creative work of the members of this list 
very much via the list archive.  I have also had a great time surfing the 
TFT web ring.  Great job everyone, I am so impressed!

Part of my current pursuit of TFT stems from the end of the school 
year.  My children, 7 and 11, are out for the summer and are finally old 
enough to take an interest in RPG's.  While I have the third edition D&D 
books, I just have not been willing to take the time to get up to speed 
enough to DM d20.  (Or maybe I would go after Hackmaster instead.)  On the 
other hand, I can still play Melee without even opening the book (the 
purple and white cover is getting frail anyway).  So I am preparing to give 
my kids an introduction to TFT via a little home-made campaign. 
(Suggestions welcome!)  We will be using the new Dungeons & Dragons 
Miniatures line for our pieces, plus a few things from Mage Knight and Lord 
of the Rings Tradeable Miniatures.  For younger kids you need a solid 
visual appeal.  I think it will turn out to be lots of fun.

Cheers!

David Peterson
