Nifty! I've never owned any issues of Polyhedron, but I sure would like to have it as a collection.

I was subscribed for a few years. It covered other games besides AD&D, including Marvel Super Heroes, FASA's Star Trek, Gamma World, Boot Hill to name a few. It presented new Monsters, Spells and Modules that I don't think appeared I any other publication. I would be interested in seeing a comprehensive collection of these creations.

Loved Polyhedrons, still have a bunch around!
Good stuff.

This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Nice job, Fulci!
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.

I actually owned that dragon bone randomizer. Didn't take long to see it wasn't very random. :D
