I discovered RPGs in the summer of 1986 with Basic and Expert D&D, and moved very quickly from there to Traveller, Battletech/MechWarrior, Star Frontiers, Marvel Superheroes, Robotech, Palladium Fantasy... hell, the list goes on. I love a LOT of games. It's a bit of an obsession these days, my collection of RPG material is now well over 1,000 books. We stopped counting at 1,200 or so. I have archives and tons of shelf space. I don't just collect to collect, I am notorious for loading up new gamers with starter libraries. I believe in teaching the hobby so the hobby can grow.
I'm a husband of a gamer, and a father of two gamers-to-be. Actually, my son already plays Hero Kids...
