I just got this boxed set called Adventures on Tékumel: Gardásyal - Deeds of Glory (long title!) :)

I already have the Tri-Stat book and the EPT one. I have just unboxed Gardasyal, but it looks like it contains a lot of stuff. The map is beautiful.

Does anyone else have this box? Chirine I am looking at you ;)

Whats the general verdict of this box compared to the other sets?

I had this at one time but it was lost during THE GREAT GAME PURGE several years ago. It was very interesting but iirc you actually needed a supplement for it to be truly complete. Not sure about that but I am sure I will not have another game purge...lol.

I've always found Tekumel as a RPG setting to be interesting but frustrating because of the language barrier -- I just can't handle those wacky names.

I'd love to look at "Gardásyal - Deeds of Glory" just to see the pretty artwork, but I know I'd never actually get use out of the thing particularly if the mechanics are awkward.

Combining mechanics I can't understand with language I can't fathom either ... well that just spells role-playing disaster for me. :lol:
