Howdy Folks, I got my start with D&D back in `82. And since 2005 I've had my interest rekindled in D&D and gaming in general. Also I've lived in Central Florida for nearly 30 years, and attended Megacon in Orlando for the last 15. Maybe I was asleep for most of that time, but now I find that the Dave Arneson himself lived worked and played for the last ten years of his life just a short drive away. I feel like a big dope. Actually I feel like I missed out. Dave had a number of interviews in magazines and even on some podcasts talking about his style of play. But do any "actual play" recordings exist of him refereeing a game? |

Welcome, Mikey! I think there are some private tapes that used to circulate on Youtube; but apart from that, little, or nothing. However, there are some pretty well-versed "Arnesonian" oldschoolers located near you, as well. Probably, contacting them might give you an opportunity to make up for missing out on Mr Arneson. :) |

No "actual play" recordings, eh? That's a shame. Any suggestions on who to look up from Dave's recent players. When I looked into it myself all I found were references to folks that played with Dave in the original Blackmoor campaign in the early seventies. Thanks for the reply. |

I am European, of course, and have never even been to Florida, but might know. |

That would be very cool to see. 8) There was the Dragons in the Basement documentary project that Arneson was involved in. Who knows what that might have contained? -Havard |

Well, Kickstarter is a means of generating funding and funding is not the issue with Dragons in the Basement as there are a number of qualified people who have voluntereed to work on it, etc. Malia will go forward with that project when she's ready to. |
