Crimefighters 2

    So I was thinking a bit more about Crimefighters. Particularly about the skills in the game. They really are not skills. They are basically feats. They help with skill like things and maneuvers. Its interesting. Like I have said previously, it's really a product of its time. Anyways just a random thought.

Crimefighters

    So I was mucking about the interwebs yesterday looking at pulpy stuff. I came across something I had not thought about in a while. A game by TSR from back in the day that was published in Dragon magazine, called "Crimefighters". Written by basically a legend, David "Zeb" Cook. It's very much a product of its time. But, it's still a fun and functional game. Here's the blurb about it from wikipedia.
