They have some fiction and some gamebooks, but it is an RPG company at heart. They have a number of comic-based RPGs too. The reason for wanting the Korean edition is that it is better built. The horse figurines are more solid and the board more sturdy. The current Spanish edition retails at deluxe prices but you'd think you are gonna break the horses when grabbing them. As you know, I like it the other way around - I want to be grabbed by a horse with force just bellow my breaking point :-) -- gopher://gopher.richardfalken.com/1/richardfalken --- SBBSecho 3.15-Linux * Origin: Palantir * palantirbbs.ddns.net * Pensacola, FL * (1:123/115) SEEN-BY: 1/21 120 3/1 18/0 30/0 80/1 88/0 90/1 92/0 1 123/0 115 3001 SEEN-BY: 153/757 218/840 221/1 6 222/2 229/114 426 240/1120 250/1 SEEN-BY: 301/1 113 341/66 234 460/58 712/848 1321 900/108 902/19 25 SEEN-BY: 902/26 27 920/0 1 69 2320/105 3634/0 12 56 57 5020/1042 PATH: 123/115 3634/12 153/757 221/6 301/1 92/1 90/1 229/426 4 |
