You scared me for a minute there. I was afraid the Hackmastergeneral wasn't going to have Hackmaster on his list. :)

It drops because its based on old D&D, which I hated.

Its a fuckin hoot though, and I love its crunchy mess, even if its a game I can only look at and never run, as I have nowhere near the patience or ability to put up with its quirky peculiarites.

I would play it in a heartbeat, but can't find anyone to run it.  I offered up my collection to my gaming group - I will give you the whole load if you agree to run it, but alas, I had no takers.

I've got a bunch of adventures on PDF, so when I grow bored of Worlds Largest Dungeon, I may attempt to revive it.

The game I want to love more than any, yet can't run to save my life if its not out of some preplanned adventure that spells every thing out for me.

My group had a ton of fun with Quest for the Unknown, though.

Our group played partway through Quest before our GM disappeared. We knew he would though, he's pretty flighty like that.

I have to admit to my fair share (more than, according to my group) of abandoned games when I just lost track of myself.

As much as I love oWoD, the freeform aspects of the world would leave me overwhelmed after a time, and I just shut down.  Plus, my natural laziness led me to put off games, and eventually I'd lose my train of thought.  I've determined to stick with prepublished adventures, which pretty much leaves me with D&D with my group.  I'm a ways into the first section of Worlds Largest Dungeon (if I'm going preplanned, why not grab the one that will keep me going for a few years?), and its been fun, my group is having fun (beyond the "room after room of darkmantles, mold and nothing" that pervades in Section A - I'm really rushing them through it by not sweating the small details)., and more importantly I'M having fun.

I loved My Hunter and Werewolf games, but they were too much work. I LOVE playing them, and my wifes Werewolf Wild West game is a blast, and the Victorian Age Vampire game we're also playing in has moved Sabbat and is promising to be even more fun than its been (we started in Dark Ages, went into torpor, and emerged in Victorian Times, decided we didn't like this uppity "Camarilla", and jumped at the first chance to switch sides.  My Cappadocian feels more at ease, and less likely to get sold down the river to these upstart Venetian necromancers, and the "shovel head/burying" part was just frankly old sauce to him..."Christ, not buried alive AGAIN.  This would be, what, the THIRD time its happened.  REAL original idea, guys..."  :D )
