Traveller was one of the earliest published role-playing-game systems, originally designed by Marc Miller and first published by Game Designers Workshop (. Chronicles of the Imperium is a pretty great sourcebook if you can find a pdf of it. Dreams of Rain was a fan creation that used d20 to make a Dune RPG. There was a Dune rpg developed by Last Unicorn Games, but it was killed by Wizards of the Coast when they purchased and dismantled the.

Thankfully, the credits for Spanky McDune and Neck-Bolts Herbert appear to be honorary only. They had nothing to do with the product itself, other than slamming the door behind it.

There was only a single limited print run, the company was sold soon after, and soon after that, Anderprick began to exert his control over the HLP. Clearly, his first order of business was no competition. Off the top of my head, I know of no sites dedicated to the game.

As mentioned, the problem is how rare it is, which makes it 100 times easier for a group to just play some other system. TheDukester wrote:Unless I'm on the crack-pipe again, he's asking about a physical pen-n-paper product: Duuuuhhhrrrrr, of course.

I played more D&D back in the day than I'd like to admit (at least in the company of non-D&D-playing women, which is after all about 99.999% of the ones worth having) so I should have guessed but I seemed to remember an orphaned Dune online game that was never finished so the two stories overlapped in my mind and I made an assumption. Sounds interesting.though I've found that paper-and-dice type games don't vary that greatly from one to another so I'd be somewhat annoyed to discover that it's just a Dune theme on the basic paper fantasy RPG.

The bit about needing a good DM is very true of paper games in general, and having players who take the game seriously helps as well. I have a hard time mustering up much passion for the classic medieval fantasy games ala D&D or even the Star Trek type paper RPGs, but I think a well done 'interactive story' in the Duniverse could be a lot of fun if it was a well written script and a talented DM -- particularly if it was played with a group like the one we have here on Jacurutu! I could see actually enjoying that a lot. Austin Texas Wifi Hotspots.

Well, I've never seen that happen. This is a definite 'holy grail' for the RPG set, and I've never seen it go for less than three digits in the last few years. For instance, I paid about $125 for my last copy and recently sold it for quite a bit more on eBay.
