Small but important correction regarding the remaining two modules. While you are correct in pointing out that City of the Sacred Flame and In the Tyrant's Demesne were intended for the Land Beyond the Mountains campaign, they were *not* county modules like Dihad and Darok. Rather, they detailed the capitol cities for each province. I detailed these in a couple of blog posts years ago - the first link mentions both of these along with many other pre-publication materials that were in the pipeline before Metagaming went Tango Uniform, while the second link were some mock-ups I did of what these city modules would have looked like had they been published for TFT as originally intended, to include the correct titles.

Certainly the simplest RPG ever produced,with the fastest character creation system known at that time. At one time,I had all of the components for the FT,it had to be the most played of all of MGC's games by us,with the exception of OGRE. Gargoyles were never a PC in the original game.
Regarding Gargoyles being PCs, they were in fact allowed, along with Centaurs and Reptile Men. You just had to pay double XPs to advance in attributes.
Love this supplement as a kid.

Wow. those look great! I will have to delve deeper when I get a second. :) (copying link in haste)
Where is the link to the Different World Productions site? I looked on Google, and it wants to push me to a TV show history.

Good to know about the gargoyles! :) I feel better now!

@@charlesgadda9442 Certainly could make for some awkward encounters. :)
I remember the reptile men and centaurs, but not the gargoyles...oh well,I must be getting old.
