Board Game Date
In 1937, Lieber and his college friend Harry Fischer created a complex wargame set within the world of Nehwon, which Fischer had collaborated in the creation of.
Is 1973 the correct date? Maestlin 19:44, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

The phrase "you don't want to know" is incompatible with the concept of an "encyclopedia"
From the page: "The religious center of Lankhmar is the Street of the Gods, where one goes to worship the Gods in Lankhmar, not to be confused with the Gods of Lankhmar. The less one knows about the latter the better." Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Statements like this, while colorful, really don't help people get information about something. I don't know the setting well enough to describe the Gods of Lankhmar authoritatively, but someone who is really should fix this. --130.58.235.187 04:10, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- The less one knows about the latter the better is written from the point of view of a citizen. It makes sense. -- Zz (talk) 10:33, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
- They're petty-minded undead who can fry you at a touch. Does that make you feel better?
Is it worth mentioning that Terry Pratchett's Ankh Morpork is based on Lankhmar?203.221.152.6 04:48, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
Real power?
The article states: The city is ostensibly ruled by an Overlord and a nobility, but the true power is held by the Thieves' Guild, and in this sense the city could reasonably be called a cleptocracy. Is there any quote that supports that view. The Thieves' Guild is powerful, but the political power is in the hands of the Overlord. They go along well. -- Zz (talk) 10:33, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
