Re: [RingworldRPG] First Timer, Old Gamer

Ray

If you like Corum then you might like Hawkmoon. Lawrence Whitaker has
written the source book for Hawkmoon to be published by Darcsyde eventually
(as the Corum sourcebook was).

I've just preordered my GOO rulebook for EPT. I love the background. I
still have Jorune and love it but have never played a game. I was going to
convert the rules system to BRP.

I set up the Ringworlrpg website (www.ringworldrpg.com) to rekindle interest
in RW and the response has been very encouraging but I apologise to all and
sundry that I haven't published more on the web. I'm looking to move my
website to another site away from 1AND1 who are pain in the ****side! They
were nearly responsible for the demise of the Larryniven.org website when
the webmasters wanted to move it to Joel Callaghan's servers.

Anyway, have you joined the larry niven mailing list?

Welcome aboard and I might see you at conventions in the near future. I'll
be at Dragonmeet today with some of the group. Where arbouts do you live?
Are you in the UK?

DG
