  2. Funnily enough, the fanzine Trollcrusher did feature “Darleks” as an example of a type of robot that could be created by mixing and matching different features in an article on robots in issue 11. Cybermen actually got statted, though it was very barebones.

  3. Correct. I only know the specific contents of that issue because I managed to find an account on Flickr that posted photos of the entire contents of three Trollcrusher issues and one Beholder issue.

      • I’m glad to have introduced you. I have only skimmed the Trollcrusher issues, but currently I think I prefer Beholder for its adventures and gonzo monsters. I just wish more issues were available.

  4. I DL’ed them from Flicker, then renamed the zip to .cbz for easier viewing in a comic book reader app. I am going to have to manually rotate a lot of the pages, though.

    I wish they weren’t so faded. I don’t know what tools to use to sharpen the text for greater legibility. However, those are rather entitled complaints, as someone went to the effort to scan and upload these for free – it’s not my place to gripe.

    I love looking at how players at the time really engaged w/D&D, vs. the oft-inaccurate imagined history. Once again, we see more complex combat and magic systems being hacked out.
