Lower the flags.

Ed Simbalist, the driving force behind many of Fantasy Games Unlimited best designs (Chivalry & Sorcery, Space Opera) has passed away.

FGU was a big influence on how I gamed. In fact, I think the second RPG I ever played was C&S.

Here's a list of some of his works. He was a double threat, writer and artist.

He will be missed.

Oh, wow. I used to LIVE for FGU games.
