  • Description
    Knights of Camelot ranks right alongside Divine Right it is an early TSR game brimming with flavor.The players are freshly knighted and wander the Arthurian realm looking for damsels in distress, brigands, monsters, other knights to joust with, etc. The game uses a random table generation driver that can lead to an enormous variety of encounters. I remember fondly two incidents:In the first, a knight met a Dwarf on horse. Deciding to approach and meet him (instead of avoiding or charging), the dwarf turned out to be a knight in disguise --but not just any knight! It was Lancelot, the foremost knight of the realm! We had a sudden vision of the hollowed-out horse necessary to hide Lancelot's bulk...In another incident, a player led a charmed life and pulled ahead of the others in their quest for the Holy Grail. He met Merlin repeatedly and ended up with a special charger, magic lance, and magic shield --the works! England wasn't much of a challenge for him any more, so he decided to cross the Channel to France. Bad move! His ship sank in a storm so he washed up on the shore minus all hi equipment and followers. Dejected, he trudges to the nearest castle to ask for help --but a giant jumps out of the moat and kills him in one blow!The game has heavy role-playing elements to it articles in Dragon Magazine explained how one could play knaves (bad knights), and GMs have been known to use the game as an adventure generator for RPGs. - BoardGameGeek
