Pushing the boat out...

These arrived in the mail yesterday: five ACE doubles with 6 of the first 7 Dumarest novels by E.C. Tubb, one of the sources for Traveller (1977). I've been meaning to read them & then saw this lot in the Holmes auctions for a good price. In Holmes' FRPG book, one of the two examples of play is Traveller, and he mentions Tubb.

Greyhawk Grognard just got some pig faced orc miniatures cast from the old Minifigs molds from back in the day.

Greyhawk Grognard just got some pig faced orc miniatures cast from the old Minifigs molds from back in the day. You may recognize them as the same figures featured on page 167 of Dr. Holmes' book "Fantasy Role Playing Games." In the book, they are set up in an Atlantic Hobby "Pharaoh's Palace" model, probably from Dr. Holmes' own collection.
