From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ghostbusters International is a 1989 role-playing game supplement published by West End Games for Ghostbusters.
Ghostbusters International is a supplement in which the original Ghostbusters role-playing game is expanded with material inspired by Ghostbusters II, adding more rules, equipment, and guidance for new players and gamemasters while keeping the system fast and accessible, and it includes a featured adventure titled "Dead Guys on Parade".[1]
Publication history
Ghostbusters International was written by Aaron Allston and Douglas Kaufman with Bill Slavicsek (based on Sandy Petersen and Lynn Willis with Greg Stafford) and published by West End Games in 1989 as a boxed set containing a 144-page book, a 16-page pamphlet, and dice.[1]
Appelcline explained that by 1989, "Ghostbusters was looking somewhat better thanks to the release of its second edition, Ghostbusters International (1989). The line was heavily supported through 1990 with almost a half-dozen products - as West End tried to get in on the marketing for the Ghostbusters II (1989) movie - but afterward the license expired and West End declined to renew it."[2]: 192
