Gosh that takes me back. I think I may have that article (I have Warlocks 1 through to 8, I think).
It turns out that there's a quite a long tradition of taking T&T characters into FF books. I've since discovered that on the Trollbridge forum there's a few aging threads on the subject and nearly everyone has their own Skill-Stamina Monster Rating formula. I used to be nervous talking about Fighting Fantasy around role players because they were sometimes looked down upon, but T&Ters accept "solos" as legitimate adult game form.
In T&T 7.5 characters (delvers) get more "adds" from their attributes; so a half decent character might perform a lot more successfully in combat.
Now I'm thinking about writing solo gamebooks, with multiple systems, but I'll keep these ideas back until they've matured a little... ;)
