Bolt Thrower
Hey there. I'm hoping that this will reach the player called Platinum Fatale from early Champions online. I played Bolt Thrower back in the day. Really miss quality Rp. If this is you please say hi.
Do you still have access to the old PDB site, or is that all lost at this point? Vitality (talk) 13:03, 9 October 2016 (UTC)
