Inventor of Dungeons and Dragons Lost His Last Roll

Gary Gygax, inventor of the game Dungeons and Dragons, has died at the age of 69 at his home in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. This was one of the great games of my youth, and legalbgl and some other friends would spend hours campaigning. This was before computer games - indeed, Gygax paved the way for multi player games that are now all too common online that are based on a fantasy world of trying to advance character development, battle fierce creatures, and gain control of the dominion.
