I'm all for that! Just say the word, O' Mighty One, and I'm with you!

BTW, how much would something like that cost ... ? Ed? Do you have any
idea? (Excepting the logistical nightmare of actually getting a game up
and running to the printers)

From what I was able to glean from the boys at the SDS, it is not cheap,
unless the company is going out of business. TSR is now WotC property, and
they are going away like Microsoft is gonna dry up any minute now. The
chances of us acquiring BR are very slim at best, none at worst. Still,
doesn't stop us from trying.

I'm content to let the situation rest for the next, say, ten years while
they all get sorted out.

Still, the only correct thing to do would be to invite Rich, Ed, Collin,
Carrie and all the rest have a crack at it with us, especially since it was
Rich's book "Kinglslayer" that spawned this world.

BTW - Rich Baker: Publish Kingslayer! :) I know you are busy on
Alternity, but I'd love to see the book that "started it all"! Miss you on
the list, man!
