  1. The cover looks like the moment Rapunzel walks into the Snuggly Duckling in Tangled. Wonder if they too break into song?

  2. I loved this set when it came out and have kept it ever since. Thinking of breaking it out for a one shot/short campaign using RQ/BRP (without the Gloranthan trappings).

  3. The Thieves World box set is probably my favourite RPG product of all time and I have based 2 campaigns around it, ironically one using some rules I wrote myself rather than any of the multiple systems it supported. I also got the Thieves World companion and many years later tracked down the scenarios FASA released for it: Traitor; The Spirit Stones; and Dark Assassin. These contained some additional material by Robert Asprin and Lynn Abbey; at some point I really must run them.
