Bonus Post! Time Bandits, Advanced Fighting Fantasy style!

undefined

 

#25-#31/31

Rounding out the challenge with the seven main protagonists (6 Dwarfs and 1 child) from a movie I found rather disturbing when watched as a child myself. As always, Advanced Fighting Fantasy 2E adds a game-able amount of granular detail to the proceedings!

 

TIME BANDITS (1981, dir. Terry Gilliam)

“They didn’t make history, they stole it!”

 

“You see, to be quite frank, Kevin, the fabric of the universe is far from perfect. It was a bit of botched job, you see. We only had seven days to make it. And that’s where this comes in. This is the only map of all the holes. Well, why repair them? Why not use them to get stinking rich?”

            Randall

 

“Young man, you stick with these boys and you’ll have a great future!”
