Semi-rhetorical question: Why are there so many RPG systems?

On it are listed dozens of game systems, most of which I've never heard of before. Why are so many companies an...

In other words, it is a comic book turned movie, or does it transcend the genre?

On the GSL topic, is White Wolf going to do a GSL line like Sword & Sorcery?

Hey Steve,

Hey Steve,

No, I haven't read your short fiction, I'm usually not a short fiction guy. I like the long form, especially series. But in this case I'll have to get the new Crusader now.

Okay sorry, poor choice of words...

What I meant was a far as the novels would go. Much like Forgotten Realms, The setting obviously belongs to Ed Greenwood and WOTC/Hasbro/whoever, but the novels are written by various authors.

I want a C&C - Aihrde novel

Seriously, I want a novel (or series) set in Aihrde.

I know there are a bunch of talented unpublished or underpublished writers who would jump at the chance to get something published in a shared world setting.

C'mon TrollLords hook us up with some fiction.
