Some of it is the Shadowrun stuff from the sessions I ran - SR 2 rules, parts and pieces from lots of other places such as Call of Cthulhu and Cyberpunk 2020.
It's quite strange to see it again, handwritten scrawls from different players and me, ideas for scenarios, location maps photocopies of pages. The memories flood back and I can almost relive the rush I used to get, the excitement, the feelings of camaradrie.
Quite amazing, actually.
Also, I can see the moving away from SR 2 towards my own setting and rules, as I use more and more of my own ideas and FASA shut up shop and stopped producing material.
Almost all of the other RPG material I've found is the early writing for my own, homebrew RPG [The Twilight World, since you ask] - rules, notes, random scribblings, rough sketches of gear [and I do mean rough !!], attempts at layout in Word, ideas, setting notes, ideas that no longer make any sense to me.
But it is interesting to see the evolution of the RPG.
Now that I'm putting pixel-to-screen with recent material from the last few years worth of ideas, rules and setting - for people to read, critique and/or enjoy using for themselves - there's material to be mined and possibly re-used.
All in all, interesting times ahead,
Peter
