Trapman: the man with the X-Ray eyes

Not a lot of rules in this one though, you basically are playing a comic book hero.

Cool, I think its called Trapman: The Dog with X-Ray eyes. I hadnt realized before that it was an RPG rather than a comic book. Just ordered a copy.

Don't Give Up the Ship. I have a hunch that most of the core mechanics for this game came from Dave.

Seem likely. This brings up an interesting point.
I tend to consider RPGs as a separate hobby from Board and Miniatures Games. To Arneson and the other early pioneers of the hobby it was of course much more natural to look at other types of games for rules. Given the recent developments in the board game industry, there might be a lesson there for modern RPG developers as well...?
