I have had the same thought. As part of my current PBP campaign i stuck these on the net by way of an illustration of the PCs home in the mountians. ...
Actually I'm a big fan of DBM - DBA was designed as a "Beer & Pretzels" game - nothing wrong with that at all. The design philosphy was - "you take as 2 hours...
... I assume that you are talking about BBDBA or Big Battle DBA, where one uses 2-4 "armies" per side and a larger map. I believe the rules are included in the...
Let me put in my two cents worth to say that I'd buy the PDF version if no hard copy was available. D20 is a system that everyone knows, and lots of people...

Greetings: Interesting! Especially so in that in Gardner Dozois' 23rd edition (covering 2005) of his annual "The Year's Best Science Fiction" there is a story...
I read "River of Gods" when it came out. I enjoyed it, but it was... strange. Could have been much better, but quite readable. While we're off topic, anyone...
Greetings: Sigh. My bad. "River of Gods" is the name of the full novel. The excerpt was called "The Little Goddess" and it actually can be found online, here: ...
... It feels way too modern and western to me to be a good fit IMHO. It's an OK read though. Some of A. Merritt's and Talbot Mundy's fantasies give a much...
Greetings: Merritt? Oh yes, that would work. Even better for Chaosium's "Call of Cthulhu", when I ran it way back when. I used his stuff, plus the novel that...
Hello all, I have come across these maps of Hekellu on Peter Gifford's site. Does anyone have the map key? I can't find it anywhere, and do not even know who...
The odd thought struck me today that with the loss of GOO, this shows what a good idea it was to put everything needed in one single book. I know a lot of...
... Here's the two minute recap (as I recall it off the top of my head - - please correct me where I'm wrong): After the events of Flamesong, it is uncertain...

Given the Meso-American influences in Tekumel, I thought this might be of interest to the group. While the television program is only going to be accessible...
There were rumors a couple of years ago that Mridobu was spotted on the Southern Continent. Possibly he was there with Elvis. Certainly he has played no part...
It seems a lot of the old campaign worlds from the early days of role-playing have links to one another. I know both Blackmoor and the JG Wilderlands setting...
I cannot answer your question, but as an old time avid Traveller fan and Tekumel fan, where do you see the similiarities and potential cross pollination? I'm...
My understanding is that Tekumel as a World and a background predates Roleplaying. I think it has been fleshed out in the years since and the original EPT game...

Hi, Wondered if anyone could tell me which clans are most significant in Fenul, Hekellu and Chaigari generally? Does anyone have any information about the...
I don't know much about Traveller other than what I've learned perusing T20, but it seemed to me some of the history of the human race and the government and...
I certainly understand that to be true. I'm just wondering how role-playing and the common literary sources and motifs that both Tekumel and other similar RPGs...
