Gary Gygax, D&d Co-creator Has Passed Away.

Oh its official, I am in mourning for this. The co-creator of the Dungeons and Dragons game passed away. Gary Gygax, died at the age of 69 in his home due to ongoing health issues. He was a brilliant gamer, his puzzles, traps and "modules" were at times ruthless. Most have no clue who he is, unless of course you are a hard-core gamer.


You can find out more about him here if you are interested...

I'll have to tell my dad about this. He was a big D&D fan back in his college days.

I was a charter subscriber to S&T. I got it for a very long time. When I moved in 1976 to California the chain broke and I could find it occasionally in a bookshop. I mounted all the S&T games I liked on Masonite boards and varnished them flat. When I broke up my house to sell in 2004, I gave them all away to kids on the street. Sad.

I was an active boardgamer during the 70s and early 80s and recognized his name in the obits. He did some boardgame designs back then.
