Published in 1981 by by Flying Buffalo, Grimtooth's Traps were a sure way for the GM of any RPG system to cause total chaos with their parties. The 7 book series presented some of the most brutal, TPK'ing, sidesplitting traps ever to be used against adventurers. The Rube Goldberg-style trap design is easily the most fun any DM looking to add some hilarity and abject horror to an overconfident gang of adventurers can have.

@DallasBarnett Gonna try this again cause I dont think my reply became a reply earlier, im sorry if it did get sent after all xP
- This is so fun ! If I dont remember wrong they made a book into swedish called " GrymkΓ€fts fΓ€llor " but for our version of DnD -> Drakar och Demoner . I just get giddy when I see old memories like this, if I had the money I would buy the old books! So many memories <3

@Zolah Ive got a fairly large 2E and before collection that I bought from new.. I'll get a snap of some of it later

@DallasBarnett Id love to see! I have a soft spot for older RPGs and especially the art, if youd like I can show you the small DoD collection I got. could be fun to compare ^^

@DallasBarnett this is my small collection of games, very varying as you can see. And this is Drakar och Demoner, I was lucky to have one of the illustrators as a teacher so he could sign it for me. ( Nils Gulliksson ). Super awesome person, my fav teacher tbh. We usually got our rpgs in boxes like these in the 80s, the content is varied due to an incident my sister were involved with. Random trivia, DoD has inverted dice so a d20 roll is catastrophic xP - part 1

@DallasBarnett Yeah <3 Oldies but goldies! sadly my gurps books have escaped somewhere so its not all, I have no idea where they went at all. My fav is probably Ars magica by far :) I have discalculia so its the kindest system to learn but still feel like i have almost limitless potential with creating ^^

@Zolah I played a lot in Arduin and Palladium's City State of the Invincible Overlord, Lankhmar, GURPS, MERPS and a few other systems. I still have at least PDF copies of all of them, having moved 3 countries since the 90's.

@DallasBarnett Cool! I have mostly ( What I believe ) been in homebrew worlds, except for when we were playing discworld gurps. So I havnt experienced much of dnd except in PC form. Im a Baldursgate lover, I really wanted to have a look at the recent released dnd book since its kinda big part of my teens haha ^^ You seem to had alot of adventures both IRL and on paper(?) :)

@DallasBarnett Ah ! Thats also super cool! But I can understand there might be some travel fatigue if you act internationally ^^ I majorly been around connected to art school, comics or work. ( so not as much as id liked )

@Zolah Nearly midnight here , so I better roll off to bed. Thanks for the chat! My parting gift to you this evening ;)

@DallasBarnett Sleep well and thank you ! mimics are fun, the potential is huge with them xD Im gonna continue my day over here. ( its only lunch over here )
