That's right, you can now get an official version of the
T&T 4th edition rules from 1977 in PDF format directly from Flying Buffalo at their
RPGNow /
DriveThruRPG storefronts. This is really fantastic news given the quality of this rules set and the previous lack of PDF versions of the full
T&T rules published by Flying Buffalo. I sincerely hope that this is a sign of more things to come. I've discussed many of the differences between the 4th, 5th, and 7th edition rules in
previous posts. There are really only minor changes between 4th and 5th and the 4th edition rules contain many elaborations that are missing in the later editions (especially 7th). The PDF is a 56 page scan of an original copy and is quite clean. It includes many wonderful illustrations by Liz Danforth (including the cover), Robin Carver, and Dan Carver that you won't find in later editions. What's even better is that you can get it for only $4!
