That must be the explanation. Otherwise, why would I have bought a copy of the new, revised Swords and Wizardry, when, if I do ever run a class-and-level FRPG, it’s likely to be with Labyrinth Lord or the Cyclopedia version of D&D? And, beyond that, if I ever run an FRPG again at all, it will most likely be with Chaosium’s BRP rules?
Because… Because it was new and shiny, and I was curious and… and… and…
Because my name is Anthony, and I am a game-o-holic. I weep.
A Seat By The Fire 
Story of my life. Of course, I like to think that I’ve spent about what I would’ve on general reading-for-pleasure, and gotten about the same value per dollar. With the added benefit that sometimes I actually do get to play something!
But the collector-bug is still lurking, stage left.
