As for relation to ADOM... ADOM is dedicated to Gary Gygax (and 3 other persons). |

I've read that too. A connection to ADOM wasn't why I started the thread. After all, Gary Gygax was a founding father of this whole genre of gaming. But TB did specifically mention him somewhere... I think it's at the end of the manual. |

Of course, I just wanted to mention it. Caladriel, the ADOM manual file, manual.doc starts with the following: (I think it is not accessible via in-game manual) Ancient Domains Of Mystery An Interactive Adventure In A Fantastic World Copyright 1994-2002 by Thomas Biskup. All Rights Reserved All Over The World Dedication ---------- To my parents for always allowing me to choose my path in life. To Dave Arneson and Gary Gygax for inventing the most wonderful pastime ever. |
