I just received my eBay purchase of Fantasy Paths in the mail today. I am excited to add this gem to my collection.

([Sorry to spoil your fun]
Which one? Chasoium released 3 or 4 of those things.

This was by Board-Craft Simulations, Inc. (1980).

This is a boxed package of geomorphic dungeon tiles. It includes a copy of the 16-page Basic Role-Playing rules.

They also published Castle Paths and Village Paths in this line as well.

I got them. It comes with a copy of the BRP booklet, some RQ monster chits, and a mini adventure, with monsters (the same ones as on the crits, what are the odds?), some RQ battlemagic spells, and a map layout.

Ok, now I'm jealous!

I'm thinking about getting a copy of the Adventurer's Handbook. Before I purchase it, do you know if it actually has a copy of BRP in it?

I'm not sure, can you jog my memory with a link, image or some such. We are talking about thing's I haven't looked at in over a decade, let alone read or used.

Oh, that one's new to me. But...

For a review try

RPGnet RPG Game Index: The Adventurer's Handbook


From what it says, the book looks to be of limited value. More of a what the RPG scene was like 20 year ago.

If you search on the net, you can find it for around $9 rather than the $13, too.

Thanks! Yeah, I saw it on Amazon for cheaper, but they didn't have a picture.
