Re: [DL] The Lord of the Rings [OT]



That is funny, considering I have several Priests, ministers, pastors, and
other various religious figures as gamer friends.  : )  Course, the majority
of my friends (in general, not just gamers) are Pagan.  Go figure.

anywho, I agree with the statements that they are hard to get into.  Tolkien
seems to had a thing for slower than dirt starts.  then again, I thought the
same about Robert Jordan (who unfortunately ended just as slow, IMHO).

Now then, back to deadlands.  There was talk for a while about doing a D20
Version.  Did that get shot down? or is it still a maybe?  I'd like it just
for conversion usages.  I think Elven Gunslingers in Deadlands would be
cool, and Dwarven Junkers In HOE is just a frightening thought.  (mind you,
i'm still going to use the Pennical system, not d20, but it'd be a nice
middle step)
