Who are Ace and The Dog? |
Ace and The Dog are, respectively, Allan Wiltshire and Hugh Foster. That's us over there; Allan's on the right and I (Hugh) am on the left. The names refer to our all-time favourite Traveller characters, Ace and The War Dog.
We met a very many years ago, went through school together, and learned most of life's lessons side by side, the majority of them involving beer. We were founder members of a bike club - Thick as a Brick MCC - of which more, later, on the Bikers' page.
We also discovered roleplaying games. We first started off playing AD&D,
then branched out into Stormbringer, RuneQuest, and of
course Traveller.
From the word Go we were prone to create and use house rules, and naturally progressed into writing them up - first on typewriters, then on computer
systems as these (and our interest therein) developed. Maybe one day I'll
post my Sinclair Spectrum AD&D character generator here as a curiousity!
As a laugh, we started calling ourselved Ace and The Dog Unpublications; when the chance came to post stuff into CompuServe and later on the Internet, this seemed the logical label to apply to the operation
