I used to work for ICE, so I owned Rolemaster. We never used the system, but did use Arms Law as our D&D combat. I now use my own combat system inspired by Arms Law, but simplified.<br /><br />Other games I own but never played:<br /><br />MERP<br />Rune Quest<br />The Morrow Project<br />PendragonArthur Brillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00248525213439164274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099843600141430373.post-35896795666258171642012-04-19T06:07:53.049-05:002012-04-19T06:07:53.049-05:00I did QotA for last year's Q.
http://timbranna...I did QotA for last year's Q.<br /><a href="http://timbrannan.blogspot.com/2011/04/q-is-for-quest-of-ancients.html" rel="nofollow">http://timbrannan.blogspot.com/2011/04/q-is-for-quest-of-ancients.html</a><br /><br />I still own a copy. If you can find it cheap then go for it (there's a link on my blog for that too).<br /><br />Are you missing anything? No. Not really. <br />This game has charm, but also a number of of flaws. It is in my opinion the best example of a Fantasy Heartbreaker. It is really just a bunch of house-ruled AD&D with some funky combat.<br /><br />Get it if you must have every fantasy game from the time or are really into d30 resolution tables.Timothy S.
