   Late-night nerd deep cut!

   In 1976, in the first wave of post D&D role playing games, Fantasy Games Unlimited published a “Watership Down” rpg called Bunnies & Burrows.

   This is the cover of the second edition (1982), with art by @jeffdee.

     Dee's art anchored several 80s rpg classics, including TSR's "Deities & Demigods" and FGU's "Villains & Vigilantes," both of which were pure imagination gasoline for young me.

     @mcnees Denis Sustare has a new edition of B&B out. He was in my gaming group during its development, and while I didn’t do any art in the new edition, I did get to help playtest it :)

     @mcnees I was fortunate enough to own a 1st edition Deities and Demigods. A lot of good DnD came out of those IP violations.

     @aiabx One of my most treasured books, and I lent it to a guy in my college dorm who promptly stole it from me.
