Are you into any other retro hobbies?

I play original (1974) and Advanced (1978) Dungeons & Dragons - the ones that Gary Gygax wrote.  I've got stacks upon stacks of books for AD&D (some of them autographed by the Man himself, may he rest peacefully), many duplicates, and copies many times over of the OD&D booklets (also one set of those autographed).

2nd Edition was a wimpy neutering of the guts-n-gore of the predecessors and characters in 3, 3.5 and 4 might as well wear blue tights, a red cape and sport an "S" on their chests.

Big RPG fan here. As my name implies, "my game" was always Runequest, but we play Rolemaster, AD&D (and I agree that the original AD&D is the way to go), Traveller and plenty of others.
 
Big fan of the original Warzone and Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader mini's games too.

Excellent; do you cast around any RPG forums?  I have one, and Knights & Knaves alehouse is another great one, and of course The RPG Site...oh, can't forget Dragonsfoot.

Also: much love for Rolemaster (aka Rulemaster/Rollmaster/Rulebastard ).  Not my first game of choice but I've had much fun with that one too.

Also also: 1e Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play!

I used to hang out at rpg.net and dragonsfoot but its been a while.

WFRP is awesome. I ended up selling my 2nd edition books. It might be better designed than 1st edition but the original book is just so damn inspirational

Isn't it, though?

I asked for a 1e WHFRP book a couple years back for Christmas, and I expected to get a softback Hogshead copy/edition.  I got an original Hardback in near mint condition Games Workshop copy.

The wife went a-browsing and found one on addall used books for $50, figured "Oh it's Christmas, what the heck" and bought.
