Zane,

I get the following when I try to run DND on PDXVAX (as GUEST):

Check out the following for all the details. http://rancourt.tripod.com/default.htm

I personally prefer the VAX/VMS version to Telengard on my Commodore 64. Though I spent a lot of time playing the C64 version when my VAX was down.

DND is a RPG of some kind? Multiplayer? I'll have to check it out.

On a somewhat related note, there's a really nifty ANSI backgammon game on B4BBS - I would love a game if anyone else is up for it.

Being a PC-ANSI BBS, you need a very specific terminal emulator, a VT* won't work unfortunately. I've got a Flash client set up on the B4BBS site, though at:

On PDXVAX the GUEST login should have access to the following.   I should
have more up there...   My main use for PDXVAX is to play DND. :-)

What games are on offer across HECnet?
CHIMPY at the moment offers the TETRIS login, wondering what else is out there.
