[Swordbearer] Hello all!

Hello,

I joined the list a couple days ago and haven't heard anything from 
anyone else, so I thought I'd introduce myself.

My name is Rachel Kronick. (I'm Jiawen on RPG.net, for those of you who 
know me from there.) I've been a Swordbearer fan since the early 80s, 
when I bought the Heritage edition of the game. I then later bought the 
FGU version. I ended up losing both those copies somehow, then bought (I 
think through Noble Knight) one copy of each edition. So I've now bought 
Swordbearer four times. :)

I've only ever run it once, though, and that was a long time ago. I 
still love the game, and a lot of its innovations continue to inspire me.

I have written a fair amount about the game:
- The Wikipedia page about Swordbearer is largely by me: 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swordbearer>
- I wrote a review for Swordbearer on RPG.net: 
<http://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/10/10785.phtml>
- I put a fuller review and more Swordbearer-related links on my 
website, at <http://www.jiawen.net/sfrpg.html#swordbearer>

I'm currently writing a fantasy RPG that has some concepts similar to 
those in Swordbearer. I will probably end up asking for playtesters at 
some point; let me know if you're interested.

So, what about you? How'd you get involved in SB? How much of it have 
you played? Got any cool resources for the game to share?

-- Rachel
