The two Realm of Chaos books are full of weird mutated beasties and fantasy creatures with technological weapons.

It's pretty short. The real meat of it is basically a couple tables dealing with what happens to characters who recieve critical hits, killed or knocked out and using a first aid type roll to save them.Timothy Paul Schaeferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12279725399542404987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-26446484252407597892012-02-20T08:18:13.545-06:002012-02-20T08:18:13.545-06:00I really wish I still had Warhammer 1st edition, w...I really wish I still had Warhammer 1st edition, what I like to call 'the other little white box'.<br />I was thinking about playing some 40k myself.

When we played 1st edition (or 2nd edition, I really can't remember) it would always devolve into chaos because we were about 11 years old and not really capable of coming to a fair consensus about what the rules meant. Seems pretty analagous to OD&D, really.noismshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09933436762608669966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-86896726009150375372012-02-19T22:45:06.167-06:002012-02-19T22:45:06.167-06:00That is so sweet.

I've been looking for old Brit fantasy stuff recently, partly because I just dig that stuff, and partly because I've been working on a <i>Labyrinth Lord</i> campaign set in Mordheim for ConstantCon.
