Trivia

  • Between the title and the description, there are images of plastic miniature pieces sliding across the screen, with four visible at a time (Troghammer, archers, Trogdor, unburninated cottage, burninated peasant, burninated cottage, knight, unburninated peasant, in that order). The images wiggle if the mouse pointer is hovered over them.
  • The "mailing list" notice at the bottom is nearly identical to the one on the Index Page, even using the same example email address.
  • The Atari Dragon uses its design from the Atari 2600 game Adventure, rather than its regular Homestar Runner design.
  • This website was designed by Joe Peacock, the same person who is redesigning the Index Page, as indicated by the copyright notice.

Remarks

  • "Trogdor!! The Board Game"'s punctuation is inconsistent in many of the updates, written as "Trogdor! The Board Game!", "Trogdor: The Board Game", "Trogdor- The Board Game".
  • Until June 29, 2019, the bottom of the page still mentioned that the reader can sign up for the mailing list to find out when the Kickstarter launches, despite the Kickstarter having ended months before.
  • The old archer meeple was still used until June 29, 2019, when the meeples were removed from the page.
