I had the 1st two Thieves World Novels in junior high. What a blast from the past! Thanks for the share!!

The cooperation of all of those game companies is truly mind boggling and only outdone by the Thieves' World authors themselves. It's a series I've read several times now and will go back to in the future. Thank you for making this video. I especially love this series of videos.

It was an impressive feat. It's a shame we've seen little like it since.

I've read the first 3 novels, and I really enjoyed them. I wish I could get my hands on the Chaosium boxset, it looks like a fantastic package all around.

It is. Unfortunately, that quality - along with its vintage - is reflected in its collector market pricing. I don't think it would be too much of a leap for Chaosium to pursue a new licence to at least partially recreate it in some form. I very much doubt the same level of inter-company cooperation would be possible, though. Or perhaps would not necessarily be needed, given OGL and ORC and all that - but then, that would kind of defeat the object. The stats would be there, the co-op wouldn't.

Still got mine, have used it over the years in Runequest, AD&D and will be using it for Mongoose Traveller very soon!

I'd be interested in hearing how that goes!

We tried a multi-GM parallel campaign set in Sanctuary. Several parties doing their own adventures in the same setting, at the same time, with the possibility of those adventures overlapping. We used Runequest mechanics. I even managed to incorporate the Guaranteed Eternal Sanctuary Man into my thread ...

Awesome! Those games can be a lot of fun, especially when you start tripping over another party's handiwork...

Hey man. Because of your video I got me a copy of Thieve's World box set for a decent price in excellent condition, also got some of the audiobooks off of Audible because I had the credit. Going to try running it in Zweihander, the setting agnostics Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay retroclone, should be fun!
