A word of warning for people looking for 'Melee' and 'Wizard':  Metagaming
went out of business several years ago when the shining light of the company,
Steve Jackson (yes, that Steve Jackson) left the company to form his own.
'Melee' and 'Wizard' can still be gotten, but only from collectors, used
book/game stores, garage sales, and the like.  Which is unfortunate, because
'The Fantasy Trip', the game system which Wizard and Melee are subsets of,
is excellent!
