An occasional #TTRPG thought I have: we lose a lot of gaming history because of licensed materials. I've heard how great the Ghostbusters RPG was. I know and love d6 Star Wars (2e R&E was mine), and have a new appreciation for RM, which I know through MERP.

But because they're licensed properties, they don't exist anymore. Can't reprint, licenses sold to others. Not gone, just rare and hard to get.

Ever since 1984 I have been kicking myself for not picking up a copy of the Ringworld RPG. I thought it could get a copy later. Then it abruptly vanished and the few used copies available are outrageously expensive.

@nyrath About 20 years ago, I was in a used bookstore and ran across an issue of a magazine from the 80s, whose name I don't recall, but was supposed to have rules for playing orcs inside.

I was *dead* broke at the time. The magazine was only 1$, but I really couldn't afford it. And I have lowkey regretted it ever since.

A 𑐴𑐶𑐟𑐶 (hiti) is an ancient Newah urban water feature: a stepped, sunken courtyard with waterspouts and a central pool. These are fed through a remarkable network of pipes, reservoirs, and irrigation systems drawing water from mountain springs dozens of kilometres away. Every day, hundreds of people from the neighbourhood come to draw water, bathe, and exchange news. They are a unique and precious feature of Newa urban architecture through which neighbourhoods are created.
