Re: (TFT) new player training report

[David Jackson <azog@bellsouth.net>]

Man, I've been playing Wizard and Melee for -years- and never touched the In
The Labyrinth stuff.  In fact, most of the time I stick with just the basic
Wizard and Melee.  

But, I rarely do any roleplaying with TFT.  Much like you, I use it for
wargaming.
