Lone Dragon, White Dwarf 68

Battlelords of the 23rd Century doesn't have terms or the like, but does have some good growing up and adult event charts with results ranging from "Chain Smoker (5% chance of having lung cancer)" to "Your uncle owns a trans-galactic starliner company. He likes you!! You can borrow one of his...

One Of Our Archdukes Is Missing!
