Dedications
From Stephen:
To my friends and family who put up with odd questions
and trivia during the writing of this book. A most special dedication to my
sister, Tina. You always made sure I did my best, now I will have to struggle
alone to keep doing that. You will be missed.
From Jonathan:
To everyone that has put up with me over the years that this
book was being developed. This includes my mom (Marilyn DeLeon) who
started me out with a love of history and put up with my gaming since 1980,
and my son Terrence who without my life would be much different.
From Marc:
To Sonja who encouraged me to get back into gaming after such
silly diversions as college and grad school, to the kids who now need no
encouragement to game (success!) and to all in my Sunday night group for
years of fun.

Prospice
Fear death? -- to feel the fog in my throat,
The mist in my face,
When the snows begin, and the blasts denote
I am nearing the place,
The power of the night, the press of the storm,
The post of the foe;
Where he stands, the Arch Fear in a visible form,
Yet the strong man must go:
For the journey is done and the summit attained,
And the barriers fall.
Tho' a battle's to fight ere the guerdon be gained,
The reward of it all.
I was ever a fighter, so -- one fight more,
The best and the last!
I would hate that death bandaged my eyes, and forebore,
And bade me creep past.
No! let me taste the whole of it, fare like my peers
The heroes of old,
Bear the brunt, in a minute pay glad life's arrears
Of pain, darkness and cold.
For sudden the worst turns the best to the brave,
The black minute's at end,
And the elements' rage, the friend-voices that rave,
Shall dwindle, shall blend,
Shall change, shall become first a peace out of pain,
Then a light, then thy breast,
O thou soul of my soul! I shall clasp thee again,
And with God be the rest.
Robert Browning (1861)
