New Microlite74 Forum — Join Now

RetroRoleplaying Posted on August 24, 2012 by RandallApril 11, 2022

We haven’t had a lot of luck with message boards. I get too busy to do the software maintenance and spammer management, so our boards eventually die. One of my players, Al (who plays the infamous Snarley in my Microlite74 … Continue reading →

RetroRoleplaying Posted on July 18, 2012 by RandallApril 11, 2022
