Jeg har været ved at rode i de gamle kasser efter eksemplarer af det legendarisk Fønix faktisk. Det går ikke så godt med det. Til gengæld har jeg fundet andre småting fx dette eksemplar af det knap så legendariske Via Prudentia (Forsigtighedens Vej) af Ask Agger og Gimle Larsen. VP var et dansk system, der huserede på Fastaval først i midten af 90'erne under navnet Voldspalle.
Det særligt sjove ved det her eksemplar er at jeg har fået det af den ene af forfatterne og at grunden til at det er så velbevaret er at det repræsenterer den form for rollspilsregler jeg aldrig har tændt på. Men man kan ikke komme uden om at VP var noget af en bedrift. Og det står også som et monument for, hvordan man herhjemme tænkte rollespil i pallernes tidsalder.
Per Fischer, der efter sigende stadig spiller rollespil, krediteres blandt testspillerne.

Der var regler for (meget) tunge skydevåben
...for initiv!
Og en hel del meget omfattende skemaer med regler for ditten og datten
På bagsiden kan man læse at der er realistiske regler for enhver form for kamp, vejledning i rollespil og drager(!) samt at rollespil er en intellektuel udfordring.
VP er udgivet på det venstreorienterede forlag Modtryk i 1994 og er layouted på en Super Nintendo IV... (det står der altså!)

THIS.IS.EVEN:MORE.OLDSKOLE!
I have been playing RPG's for many years and one of the things everybody seems to remember from the early days is the red box Dungeons and Dragons set.
I'm almost certain that I have one of those lying around somewhere but I just recently found this:
The Blue Dungeons and Dragons Expert set.
The Front:
The inside cover sporting fancy blue print. This seems to be the 1983 edition...
Close but no cigar: The resurrection spell. - (Correction: A closer look suggests that the drawing is intended to illustrate the "Speak with the dead"-spell on the same page. But still no cigar!)
And maps obviously. Several in fact. There be Bugbears hiding in the hexagonal forrests as this one clearly shows.
Wikipedia tells us that this was the third Dungeons and Dragons Edition and that 1983 brought us the Basic Set (red box), Expert Set (blue box), Companion Set (teal box, levels 15–25), 1984 Master Set (black box, levels 26–36), and (in 1985) Immortals Set (gold box, levels 36+). [Link]
I remember the red, the blue and the teal sets. I believe that one of my co-players had the black guide-book but I remember the color as a dark brown... The Immortals set I had only heard about in those days.
