What was first published, Solarquest or CirKis?
Solarquest SolarQuest is a space-age real estate trading board game published in 1985 and developed by Valen Brost, after his having conceived the idea in 1976. The game is patterned after "Monopoly" but replaces pewter tokens with rocketships and hotels with metallic fuel stations. Players travel around the sun acquiring planet, moon, and man-made space structure monopolies while fending off attacks. They seek to knock their opponents out of the game through bankruptcy, as well as optional laser blasts and dwindling fuel supplies (when using the Advanced Play ruleset).
Spacehounds of IPC Spacehounds of IPC is a science fiction novel by author E. E. Smith. It was first published in book form in 1947 by Fantasy Press in an edition of 2,008 copies. It was the first book published by Fantasy Press. The novel was originally serialized in the August, September and October issues of the magazine "Amazing Stories" in 1931. Smith became disenchanted when he saw that editor T. O'Conor Sloane had made some unauthorized changes in the story, most likely to give each of the three parts it had been split into equal length.
