Here I go again: The Long List of RPGs (version II).
The RPGs are lsited in alphabetical order, and changes from the
previous list are noted by an asterisk. I decided to drop
Oregon Trail(FGU) to keep consistency in the list (It really
isn't quite a role-playing game), and Thunderin' Guns(SGP)
after actually seeing a copy of it (it is actually a board
game with "role-playing elements", like Oregon Trail), here
I was misled by British advertising. This makes the grand
total of games 138.
service with a smile,
Tim Lasko, DEC, Maynard, Mass.
