Sir, a most worthy effort which I will be keeping my eye on. Based on certain rumors about Mr. Gilders sometimes volcanic temper (hopefully not too cataclysmic), I named the volcano in my pirate game Gilderakatoa. Of course, even Mr. Featherstone acknowledged his debt to Jack Scruby so the islands were the Scrubyward Isles. But I also had some hazardous and sharp pointed rocks knows as the Featherstones. Homage is a good thing.
I like the PDF idea mentioned in the replies on your blog but may jump for the hard copy just to reward your efforts in restoring these 'legendary' rules. Mr. Gilder owes me a lot since I've spent too much money getting a much too large collection of Sudan figures (even if they aren't much painted yet). Oh, wait, don't I mean I owe him for the inspiration?!
