Memorial game by Bob Meyer

[havard]

I reposted a newspaper article on a Blackmoor game Bob Meyer ran after Dave's passing.

According to Bob, the game was set in an earlier part of Blackmoor's history at a point where Blackmoor had been overrun by Orcs, or Half-men as Bob called them.

Here's the article:

Bob sent me this some time ago and initially asked that I keep it to myself since it was owned by the journalist, but seeing as it has already been posted elsewhere on the net, I see no harm in posting about it here and on the Piazza

Whew! When I read Bob Meyer game I thought Oh no! He's dead! Glad to know its not the case! Maybe you should consider adjusting the title to Memorial game BY Bob Meyer. Anyway that's a really interesting article Havard and thanks for sharing. One thing I've noticed is that games seem to always be set forward in Blackmoor time. Like Temple to the Frog coming after Stephen had already changed the original setting or the age of the wolf thing being 200 years in the future or whatever. Its nice to see a game going back to an earlier stage of Blackmoor development.

Whoops! Good point! I've changed the title as you suggested.

I agree. I also like Bob's approach. From what I understand, it is supposed to be set right after the death of King Robert of Geneva.
