First off, I HIGHLY suggest you read through all five books of the
Hitchhikers Guide trilogy, several times... Then go watch every episode of
Monty Python, plus the movies, several times... That should prepare you
for one kick ass game of TF2V.

<grin>

I played in a short lived campign with what was my core Star Wars group at
college. The GM read the Hitchhikers Guide books once a week, all four of
them (This was 4 or 5 years ago, and I don;t think the fifth was out yet),
and had most of Monty Python's stuff memorized... It was rather
interesting...

We had a singing, dancing Transvestite Kender, a Motorcyclye Riding Hell's
Angel who happened to be a dragon as well, and a whole bunch (pack?) of
Inflatable Love Pit-Bull's/ Oh yeah, and Clarence the Angel from "It's a
Wonderful Life" was the sign in front of the Vagabond (We sort of broke the
old one:)).

If you can find a GM that can handle the really warped humor involved,
Vagabond can be a GREAT can... Good luck, Lady J... I have faith in you...

BTW: Ignore most of the rules, and have fun with Target Vomiting, hips and
Chain, and Power Belching (or whatever it is called). It's a riot...:]
