Fixed disclaimer: Your editor found all these sites. He did not explore any of them. While none of them appear to be irregular, remember caveat emptor and Your Mileage May Vary. I expect that if any of these sites were seriously offensive someone would eventually post the issue, but I make no promises that this has not occurred.

http://www.edoc.com/zarf/werewolf.html does have the single drawback that it is really only good for an *odd number* of players. Quo Vadis was released in 1992 by Hans-im-Glück. Chris Lawson (chris. lawson@virgin.net) reports that he has a list of release dates for all of the Reiner Knizia games at http://freespace.virgin.net/chris.lawson/rk/. Reiner did give him a complete list of everything that Reiner had ever had published; the pager is to be updated with this information.
