Personally the scholastic angle never worked for me, and I was never too taken
with HeroQuest as it seemed to play on this scholars viewpoint and headed away
from the 'standard' role-playing game format to a new format that never
particularly caught my attention. But, heh, each to their own.

Certainly some of the scholars came up with some interesting stuff, I've
plundered lots of the scholarly discussions for themes for my game (along with
about half of Simon Phipps campaign - played my annual RuneQuest weekend last
week and they managed to screw up saving Orlanths Lost Cloud Castle, cheers Si!
Your campaign ideas are still fuelling my own!) so there was some good stuff.
Certainly I don't think the scholars killed RuneQuest/Glorantha, although
admittedly I don't use the Gloranthan Digest anymore. But there's more to
Glorantha than the Digest.
