THANKS Rene! :-)
I'll do it! My first impression, is that is looking really nice at
dosbox environment!
I'm also a fun of H.P.Lovecraft and fantasy art in general. I also
like J.R.R.Tolkien and R.E.Howard. I think, it will be a very pleasant
experience! :-)
I wish you the same!
Best wishes for all!!! :-)
