Much new stuff has been added to the documents and

foreign visitors may experience problems. Sorry for that!
Some of the new
stuff has been taken from other Bard's Tale sites, but of course I got
the permission of the respective webmasters. Special thanks for
letting me use their material go to:
Teran of RPGClassics, Barry Gerdes, Mecandes/Ontario, Jonathan G. Lampe and of course to
Rob Huston/Warren Ayers (for their
hand-made maps).

other new resources (e.g. a Thief of Fate codewheel). Just have a look!

09.04.2004 03:54 EDT - Closing Down
After careful consideration, I have decided to close the
Adventurers' Guild. I created this site when I was in high school, way
back in 1996. 8 years later, I no longer have the time or the interest
to continue maintaining the site.
That said, I will leave the site up for at least a few more weeks. My
hosting contract expires on the 12th of November, and I will not be
renewing it at that time. I may decide to remove the site before then.
Thanks for visiting, and happy adventuring.
-Tom
Update: Geoff May has created a mirror of the entire site
here.
Anyone else who would like to copy part or all of the site is welcome to
do so.
