I am very much interested in Tekumel, but, sorry, I am simply not willing to pay the amazon or NKG prizes for the books,
which right now range between 100 and 300 dollars. In my typical blunt fashion, let me say this:
You want people to remember your friend? - Then, take care that his setting is available to other than old men in their basements.
I would run a Tekumel game, in all likelihood, if I had the books available.
But really, check this out: http://www.amazon.com/Tekumel-Empire-Th ... im_sbs_b_1
Nobody is going to pay that kind of money.
I agree with you completely! I hope it's all right to post links to other sites, but please have a look at:

The Tekumel Foundation is putting a lot of the old material up here, and sales from DriveThruRPG help fund the preservation and restoration work on the collection. The first item from Phil's files was the side-by-side 'ditto' original pre-TSR manuscript and clear text copy from 1974, and the TSR / Gamescience / Different Worlds edition of EPT is available for a whole $11.00.
If there's anything I can help you with, please feel free to contact me!
