Hi, does anyone know where there is access to Pelinore stuff on line that can be downloaded (pdf etc) still?

Doesn't have to be comprehensive, but I am interested in adding some of it (Pelinore) into my own campaign.... Very Happy

Thanks

IIRC Pelinore was published firstly in Imagine and then migrated to GameMaster Publications when the staff set it up. All the magazines are pretty cheap to buy except GM1 Flight of Eagles which costs sh't loads. Very Happy

I did. But I didn't scan it. It had some writing on the maps.

Don't confuse 'GM' magazine with the magazines published by GameMaster Publications? If I saw a copy of Flight of Eagles on eBay I'd bid it beyond $50 without even thinking about it. And I bet I wouldn't win it.

There was an auction that ended last week I think that had the two confused.  They had issues #1,2 of GM magazine and then #3,4,5 for the modules.  Hopefully only the seller was confused and not the buyer.

Ian,  I've got a GM1 you can borrow for scanning, as long as you promise not to sell it afterwards!

I did manage to but me a set of Imagine's in binders for a nice price. There are probably a few here who would like a set though. I'll make a note about GM1 and PM you later in the month when I get some free time. Cheers.

I think Harami got very lucky on that auction and a lot of people missed it - I missed it.  The seller didn't mention any of the titles in the auction and doing a search for "game master" on ebay just doesn't sound like a good idea.

I regularly search for A Flight of Eagles because it is the only one I am still missing but I don't think it is a high priority for a lot of people so its price doesn't get way up there.   Also, sometimes it is sold as a UK only auction.

Typically you can pick up #3, 4, 5 for fairly cheap but #1 and 2 are definitely harder to find.  I picked up #2 in the sell off mentioned above but haven't really seen too many other sellers.

Here is the recent auction with the GM magazines and Gamemaster publications:

That recent auction was nicked off me in the last few seconds. I had been on that for ages, but got taken off it late on. Unfortunately I was away when the auction finished so didn't monitor it closely.

To be honest I only wanted the GM 3-5 modules and hadn't realised that there was anything of worth. I am doubly narked now if the others were worth something.  Crying or Very sad

ash

mods 3-5 come along quite often and dont really go for that much, so you will always get chance to grab em again. GM1 and GM2 (which were not in that auction), are considerably harder to find and normally get quite a lot of bids and generally go for a lot - them you will have a real tough time getting cheap.

Hi, can anyone help or advise on this. I was after this item, but missed out. However I have been offered a second chance.

Are the two issues at the bottom of the pile on the picture worth anything, or are they just GM1 & GM2 issues of GM publications? I understand that a GM1 is normally worth a fortune...  Confused

I have since picked up the 3-5 modules that I was missing, so its no big drama for me to get them, but it would be a shame to miss out on something worthwhile.

To be honest, if they are worth anything, I would happily sell them onto a collector on here, as I play and don't collect.  Very Happy

They are two seperate thing. GM1 & GM2 as listed in this particular auction are just crappy old GM magazines and not worth anything at all.  They are also altogether different than the other 3 items listed as GM3, GM4 & GM5. These 3 items are Game Master publications.  They are not even affiliated with each other in anyway shape or form.  For clarification, check this page right here in regards to the GM1 & GM 2 that are valuable:

http://www.afterglow2.com/Product/GMG.htm

The GM1 & GM2 listed in the website that I referenced there are Game Master Publications,  are hard to find and are worth some cash.  They were produced back in the mid 1980's where as the 1st items in that auction are simply GM magazines, and those were produced several years later IIRC around 1992 or 1993.  Once again, there is absolutely No affiliation between the two.
