I would join more in game threads but English not being my first language I'm terrible at those. By the time I come up with a half-witted answer most folks here have already come up with stuff that I sometime doesn't even comprehend. I'm really only good at Buffy-speak. But I would not want to discourage new members, please do join in the fun! Unfortunately i am with heynreck On this subject, still follow this forum closely and want to post a thread soon of a program I found to help playing Ff books Sent from my SUNSET2 using proboards

Hello Dungeon Devil, The Strong Market of fighting fantasy books it's in the UK , but The USA as also a good representation so try amazon.com or ebay.com, in case of rarer books try amazon.co.uk or ebay.co.uk do not know mail rates to your country tough
Edit: also a good place to exchange or buy books would be the fighting fantasy facebook group

I insist in the idea of republishing some titles , to avoid speculation and the insane prices of some gamebooks , take for example howl of the werewolf.

There is a question in the official FF site i tought our fellow experts on the subject might give him a hand:
Question:"I have been playing blood of the zombies and have come up against zombie Kong I have a shotgun and Amy has the pistol giving us a +7 on our attack score however considering as the highest you can role on the dice is 12 it is impossible to get higher than 20 so it seems impossible to get past zombie Kong. Can you be honest with me and tell me is it possible to get a better weapon or can that part not be completed."

Then there's that funny post on the Official Site saying they are thinking of a new FF book for the 40th anniversary in 2022 or so... Not sure if it's a joke but it made me laugh in a bitter and sad way. Not very appealing to please the fans really, you see google for example they are always trying to reinvent theirselfs not always with much success but at least they try, the problem with Fighting Fantasy it´s the author´s stopped trying .

I think Fighting Fantasy would need a change of pace regarding the future, one idea i already propose to Jamie Fry on the Fighting Fantasy facebook group was to republish the books in amazon kindle format with hiperlinks . I think what FF doesn't need is another republish... There's no reason why there couldn't be new books in some kind of digital format though. I am curious ,why won´t you agree with a series republishing? I am sure most of the fans would want their favourite books in digital format.

welcome joao, nice to have a fellow portuguese around here, as for the app quite an ambitious project, and there are none so far that can handle the special rules of some books. I have a question for you , would the app be free or would it have a cost?

This is probably the book that I want to read (and play) the most. Never read it before. Can't find a copy of it... well in ebay and amazon theres 2 or 3 copies for 199,00£!!! what the hell?! I can' even... this must be the hardest book to find. So goddamn expensive. it is an expensive book indeed, i think it is mainly because : 1.There are very few new copies on the market 2. People who already have it do not want to sell them then again a copy appeared on ebay for 15£ the other day.

I call it rather a revivalism of childhood moments, i prefer that than calling it "a nerd thing" or "childish", a wonderful thing to stimulate the brain and imagination.

Sorry, I should have explained it a little better.
You have to enter in numbers for skill, stamina and luck. If you don't the computer will assume the score is 0.
For a single playthrough, you just click the button 'Once'.
For multi playthroughs, you enter the number of times you want to run the simulation to the right of 'How many:'. Then you click the 'Many' button. I did all as described and simply can get the 'many' button to work , as much i i click in, the 'once' button works perfectly tough, does anyone have the same problem? note: an image goes as attachment to exemplify the situation

It's good, but dear God, it can be slow some times. Most of the characters are good and the political intrigue elements are always fun. Actually I find the fantasy elements tend to be the dullest part of it. It's pretty graphic when it comes to sex, violence and language - don't know if that would be an issue for you but I know some people who were put off by it. The best thing about it is my feet appear in Season 2 Episode 4 now i know why it is scheduled to play on the tv so late at night, may watch an episode to see if it is that good,but might not like because i didn´t watch it from the start. P.S. is it a private joke about your "famous feet" or do you have a part on the series.
