This is my main argument so far.
Could be coincidental.
Also, was it really Arneson who did the first map, or was it some other person?
Quote:Anyway, my point is not really whether Lankhmar was the inspiration for Maus or not. The point is that given the similarities between the two, how can we use Lankhmar to flesh out Maus further?
Given how close D&D and Lankhmar are, that should be pretty easy. (Though I think Lankhmar is set in a more moderate climate than BM.)
As easy as to connect any other fantasy novel from that era, though, like, say, the Elric stories.
