The fact the Gygax got rich and lived like a Rock Star for a couple years is rather cool. Nerdvana.
The fact Arneson was being paid six figures in royalties for a few years. Still every time I saw him, he looked like Aqualung. Does beg the more interesting questions. How much wealth was hidden from the tax man and lies buried someplace?
The creators of Dungeons and Dragons, having met and conversed with both men, were very even tempered and great with fans. Sages wandering conventions and talking gaming. I think of worse lives.
Anyone ever read "Gord the Rogue"? How did a few novels bail out his companies post TSR? Could not have sold like DnD?
