Frank Mentzer interview has been posted.
Look for the next part of Frank’s interview soon. http://rpgbomb.com/videos/id_175/ The Following is from Wikipedia: Mentzer was an employee at TSR, Inc. in the early stages of the company from 1980 to 1986. In 1981 he founded the Role-Playing Games Association (RPGA). Among other positions he held at TSR, he was Creative Advisor to the Chairman of the Board, Gary Gygax. Mentzer's D&D-related publications include: - The 1983 boxed sets of revised core rules for Dungeons & Dragons, Basic Rules Set 1 (red box) and Expert Rules Set 2 (blue box), along with their sequels Companion Rules (1984), Master Rules (1985), and Immortals Rules (1986). See the Editions of Dungeons & Dragons article for details on these boxed sets.
- Adventure module T1-4 The Temple of Elemental Evil, co-authored with Gygax in 1985
- Accessory module AC4 - The Book of Marvelous Magic (TSR, 1985), also co-authored with Gygax.
- The entire RPGA series of adventures based on Mentzer's own home "Aquaria" D&D campaign, coded R1 through R10. The R series of adventures was originally intended to form the basis of a new "Aqua-Oerdian" boxed set to expand upon the World of Greyhawk campaign setting, but these plans were shelved after Gygax left TSR in 1985.
- Module I-11, Needle (TSR, 1987).
- Module I-12, Egg of the Phoenix with Paul Jacquays (TSR 1989), a revised compilation of R1 - R4.
- Module IM-1, The Immortal Storm (TSR, 1986).
