The following are selected/edited excerpts from some of the e-mails I've received from players of WoML (names witheld in order to protect the privacy of those who'se opinions are shown):

> "I'm having lots of fun with WoML."

>"I have thoroughly enjoyed playing your Sword Lands scenarios for Realmz."

>"I must say I am very impressed with your scenario."

>"I have played your other 2 great scenarios and WoML is the best!"

>"Once again, congratulations on making such a great and challenging scenario for us to enjoy!"

>"I recently registered your scenario and think it's great."

>"My favorite part was when I defeated Xenon Maximus and the other Mind Lords. I think the names for these guys are kind of clever, they are so unique, I never would have thought of them myself, so GREAT JOB on the Sword Lands Trilogy!!!"

>"You deserve a break after your magnum opus (3 huge scenarios). You are carrying Realmz now. :)"

>"It is like one big story and I will think of it as a trilogy like Star Wars. You have done great at this whole thing."

>"First, I just want to tell you that WotML is absolutely incredible. What a great way to end the Sword Lands series!"

>"I give you my congratulations on a job well done!!!"

>"WotML is every bit as great as the two previous Sword Lands scenarios. Thank you for creating such epic adventures for the world of Realmz."

>"One thing I really like in a scenario is background. The more detailed the better. I think this is what sets the Sword Lands a cut above the rest. Even the other Fantasoft-produced scenarios. When you are playing the game, you feel as if the Sword Lands really do exist. They have a place in 'the world' and a history."

>"I want to tell you that I'll be playing your trilogy over and over again. I bid you 'Safe journeys and safer returns' :)"

>"I played your last scenario and got to a point where I had to register in order to go on further. I registered glady considering the quality of your work."

>"WotML was excellent and so are all of your scenarios. Glad to know that you plan on making another trilogy."

>"Good job on the game btw. It's a blast."

>"I enjoy a lot the way that trilogy has been thought and written."

>"Wrath of the Mind Lords was great, and the whole trilogy: I want to thank you for having given to us such nice scenarios."

>"I'd like to congratulate you on your Sword Lands scenarios. Absolutely brilliant - in depth characters, great plots and a land which really seems alive. It's provided hours of pleasure."

>"We love your trilogy."

>"Your series is excellent and I love playing your scenarios."

>"I'd just like to stress that I've been playing Realmz since version 1.3 and the Sword Lands are by far the best scenarios that I've played. The Sword Lands really seem alive with all the characters, history and plots. They obviously represent an incredible amount of work and possibly the best value for $13 (each) on the whole planet!"

>"You have certainly done an admirable job with the Sword Lands and the background material. You are to be commended. Admirable Work!!!"

>"Oh man! This scenario was the works."

>"As with everything that you do, Wrath of the Mind Lords excels."

>"BTW... love the Sword Lands Trilogy and can hardly wait for your next project to become avaliable."

>"I've been enjoying your games immensely."

>"I have registered your scenario and I am enjoying it very much."

>"There are few games with characters as good as Riel Moonsong, Naryl Dragonstone and countless others."

>"The Sword Lands trilogy is a great feat, quite probably the greatest among the Realmz scenarios."

>"The Sword Lands series is way cool, some of the best written and actually better executed of the 'official' scenarios."

>"I'd like to congratulate you on 3 well-done senarios. I've been a fan of Realmz for a long time and am also an author, and you have put both a story and a game together really well. Thanks for hours of fun."

>"This scenario looks like it is really worth paying for."

>"I have finally conquered the Sword Lands Trilogy. Firstly let me just say how great I thought the final battle with Maximus and his mentarch siblings was. Throughout the years that I have played Realmz, I never had to fight such a tough battle! I just thought their strength was marvelous and I was very excited when I finally overcame them (...) Concerning the trilogy, overall these scenarios are very impressive! They are absolutely massive and have so many interesting nuances that I can't even imagine how much work you must have put into them."

>"I love the Sword Lands scenarios that you have made. They are the best I have played."

>"The levels of interaction and depth of your scenarios are unrivaled. Part of what makes the Sword Land trilogy so good is how there is something to do on almost every tile on every land level; sometimes I replay them just for that aspect of them."

>"If there's anything that's great about your scenarios, it's the small details."

>"After taking a long hiatus (we all have, and yet we all come back to Realmz again and again!), I went thru the basics, tried a few of the new scenarios, then fell into the whole kit and kaboodle when I hit your excellent series 'The Sword Lands' trilogy. Frankly, it totally ROCKS!"

>"The Sword Lands are a great RPG series."

>"I purchased Realmz and as many of the scenarios that I could find. This netted me the entire SL trilogy which I have found worth the price of the whole bundle."

>"Longtime fan of Fantasoft's Realmz for well over 13 years, ever since I was a kid, I always find myself coming back to play the scenarios because they're just too fun. My particular favorites are the Sword Lands scenarios, which I guess I have you to thank for!"

>"The scenarios you made are *amazing* in their amount of interaction with the world around you. That's what make your scenarios so great: you really make the world come to life ..."

>"Your scenarios are very well crafted and show that you took the time and effort to put forth really good products."

>"Your Sword Lands Trilogy scenarios are the best Realmz scenarios by far that I have played."

>"The Sword Lands scenarios are rocking - they are really good - seriously excellent and well worth it."

>"(...) Also, gotta say, thanks for making such an awesome trilogy. Of all the new games that are out there with crazy designs and capabilities, I still find myself always coming back to good ol' Realmz."

>"(...) started playing Realmz again recently, and can't stress how impressed I am with the Sword Lands. Such immense fun to play."

>"(...) the Sword Lands stuff was the best IMO. I've always been a stickler for continuity and consistency, the fact that the Sword Lands were so tied together with the Realmz milieu and you had fleshed out so much backstory, made the difference."

>"I really do want to play the rest of the SL trilogy, as I am loving it, and really getting back into Realmz again."

>"Well, deciding to play your scenarios was a good move. Your work is top class and really sets the bar high for others to aspire to (...)"

>"Your Sword Lands trilogy is, simply put, epic. I just never get tired of replaying these scenarios again and again. Even to this day, I still marvel at their excellent quality, complexity of story and amazing depth. Not mentioning the staggering number of hours required to play each scenario. Adventure galore indeed!"
