I've already enjoyed some activity here at Unseen Servant, up to and including launching a PbP game --- nonetheless I'll get belated formalities underway.
Greetings, Shadow Shack here. I got into RPG back in merry old 1981 with the Moldvay Basic boxed set and was instantly hooked. I picked up the Expert set shortly afterwards, and the following year I got hooked on Star Frontiers. With a lacking starship system for that game (as KH was a pipe dream and would not debut for another year), I drafted my own house rules. One of the ships I made from that house rule system was a tramp freighter dubbed the SS Volturnian Knighthawk, so imagine my teen glee when I saw that expansion box for Star Frontiers bearing the name "Knight Hawks" (well, two words instead of one and pluralized at that --- still worthy of joygasm ).
A couple years later I picked up the Companion boxed set, not realizing it was a new edition/thinking it was the promised Companion mentioned in Cook Expert. Yeah, it certainly had its mismatches but it wasn't a chore to make it work. That same year a friend, who wanted to host his own Star Frontiers games, went to a hobby shop and they were out of stock so the owner sold him on Traveller. Fast forward to late 2019 and I finally took the plunge into acquiring numerous LBBs myself.

Welcome!
Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.
