Title: QUICK QUESTION
Post by: Slant on April 08, 2003, 12:08:50 PM
How do I get my hands on a copy of ELFS?  It sounds great and I would love to play it, but nobody in my area seems to have heard of it.  Is it an actual game that you can buy in stores?  Is it a PDF only game?  How would I go about buying a copy?  Please let me know.  Thanxx

Hi there,

Quick answers:

- PDF only - when you buy it, you get the access to download it.

- Order direct from the Adept Press website (see link above).

- $10.

Here are some things to know about the game.

It's a very biting satirical re-play of a certain kind of D&D role-playing. It assumes that the GM is really out to kill the characters and that the players are oriented toward (a) surviving and (b) out-doing one another. The point of the game is to make this kind of play actually fun, largely by mocking itself as it goes along. It works very well if the people involved are actually pretty bitter about their previous experiences with this kind of play.

Best,
Ron
