A really sad day. I've got hooked in '81 and loved every chance I have had to play. None of this is where it is today, possibly at all, without D&D. I only wish they could have come up with a kick a$$ movie of D&D while he was alive to enjoy it.

A very sad day. R.I.P. Mr. Gygax

I got to agree with Terryin that his contributions to fantasy are equal to those of Tolkien

That sharing things legally with Arneson was a major sticking point. To avoid that, and to screw over his co-designer, Advanced Dungeons & Dragons was spawned. It all came out in the belated wash. Before WoTC could buy out the D&D corpus, they had to settle with Arneson.
