2020 - The Year of Blackmoor - 50th Anniversary - Day Thirty-Three

Celebrating 2020 - The Year of Blackmoor - 50th Anniversary!

Today is the 02.02.2020 post.

This post (Dave Arneson, Blackmoor and Me!) tells this story, Spinachcat writes:

Two weeks ago was the ConQuest San Francisco convention and this is an email I sent a buddy on Saturday night. I was planning on posting something more coherent on RPG.net, but tough xxxx, you get this instead.

That post contains an essay about playing with Arneson and his rules. He closes with these remarks:

BTW, here's a hint if you ever play with Dave. Dave lets the players pick a mission for their adventure. When you complete the mission by returning back to town, the adventure is over. Therefore, if you want to keep playing with Dave, all you gotta do is delay going back to town...

The other useful post in that thread is this one.
