Ironically, in the first printing of DDG that did not include the Cthulhu and Melnibonean mythos, Chaosium was still thanked!<br /><br />(Unfortunately, I cannot remember where I read this tale. I believe it may have been reported by a former TSR employee over at Dragonsfoot, but I'm not sure. It's been a few years since I read it.)Akrasiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08734103159691571156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3094937232522894470.post-43997292293884376232011-07-13T12:09:10.322-07:002011-07-13T12:09:10.322-07:00Two of my gaming group own this printing.
