That neatly summarizes one of my favorite things about this list -
the view into other members ideas, styles, and gameworlds that we
get. We may not always agree, but it is fun to get that insight,
also it helps clarify ones own thinking to compare it with
another's.
Well said sir!
Here here!

Subject: (TFT) Experience points and Army sizes in the Wiki
Hey all, just posted two things on the Wiki. One useful, one
frivolous.
The first is a table of experience point values for each level of
points.
http://tft.brainiac.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Basics.ExperiencePoints
The second is a fun exercise to determine the point value of a
character leading an army echelon of a certain size.
Not meant to be dogma, just a quick reality check if desired.

n=Rules.LeaderRanksAndSuggestedXPValues
Enjoy!

Nice stuff Lord Inar, nice stuff.
I've been MEANING to thank you for your efforts on the WIKI Sir, I'm
both impreased and thankful for your efforts!
I find the experience stuff MOST intresting because I've thought
down simalar paths myself.
In drawing up my brilantly named Dark Lord (like that name? I'll let
you use it! LOL) I got a bug lodged in eleavated regions of me
neathers and decided to figure out WHERE his experience points came
from...
I ended up saying that he destroyed a couple of villages, which a
glance at your table suggests would be something I could "look up"
now.
More when I get a chance to "pour" over it.

Subject: (TFT) Test Drive TFQ
Howdy, Gents,
I'd like to invite you all to test-drive my new rules, The Fantasy
Quest.
Melee. As you might imagine from the title, these rules were
inspired by my
love for TFT ever since I discovered TFT Melee in a mall game store
while
visiting Monroe, WI in 1978. I've tweaked and tinkered with TFT and
related
products for the past 30 years, and I finally decided to send my own
rules to
market (as long as they pass the "sniff-test" with you veterans).
The Fantasy Quest. (TFQ) Melee is the one of four rulebooks which
I'll release
simultaneously, along with TFQ Wizards, TFQ Adventure & TFQ Foes.
If these
initial releases take hold, I plan to follow-up with many other
sourcebooks
such as TFQ Campaigns, TFQ Supers, TFQ Battles, TFQ Universe, TFQ
Pirates,
etc..., as well as settings like TFQ Greece, TFQ Britain, and so on.
One thing I don't intend to publish is adventure material. I think
you'll
find that the Dark City Games gang are doing a super job of that,
and I hope
they continue for years to come. TFQ should be completely
compatible with
their adventures. Additionally, the TFQ website will be a place for
you to
post your own adventures to share with others players. The TFQ
website is
currently under development and will be launched sometime this year
prior to
the release of TFQ in stores.
I think you will find TFQ's systems and mechanics to be easy-to-learn,
quick-to-play, and find that they elegantly handle most of the
elements of
fantasy combat that us old TFT'ers have come to desire. Light on
boring
details, heavy with options.
If you are interested in receiving a play-test copy of TFQ Melee,
please email
me directly at Gavin.Gossett@comcast.net. A few of you offered to
playtest
TFQ a while back (mid '07?), but the "family" PC where that
correspondence was
stored has since given-up-the-ghost. Please contact me again and
I'll send
out rule-books for you and your players immediately.
Thank you all for reading, and (hopefully) for your playtesting and
participation!
Now, back to our regularly scheduled program...
Gavin Gossett
