Tales of Future Past It wasn't that long ago that we had a future. I mean, we have one now; the world isn't going to crash into the Sun or anything like that. What I mean is that we had a future that we could clearly imagine. The future wasn't tomorrow, next week, next year, or next century. It was a place with a form, a structure, a style. True, we didn't know exactly what the future would be like, but we knew that it had to be one of a few alternatives; some good, some very bad. A few years ago, people talked about building a bridge to the 21st century. Boy, were we off base. Still, there was a romantic innocence about the 20th century's view of the future.

Since I have been living in Japan for six years now, this was a nice surprise for me. I have seen very little evidence of active roleplaying going on here, but it's nice to know that they released the books. Looking into the availability of these books, however, has proved difficult. Of these, the Rules Cyclopedia seems to be the least over-priced, and the easiest to obtain, so I went ahead and bought it. The Japanese version of the Rules Cyclopedia comes in three volumes: (1) Player's, (2) Dungeon Master's and (3) Monsters. Note that the books are traditional Japanese style, which means that they read from right to left, with the cover on what we would consider to be the back cover. (3) Monsters is on the left, (2) Dungeon Master's in the middle, and (1) Player's on the right. "Combat". "Dungeon".
