errr.... do i miss smtg??? why it *WAS*? i'd say it *IS*... ok, maybe it isnt in great condition...
anyway: my questions are still pending... is it complete? is it a 1st print? ...is the price (at least) fair?

Axel

as you are italian and not english i will explain

if the auction was still running, i would have said IS.

as the auction had ended by you doing a BIN, i said WAS.

it WAS for sale. do you see?

Are we nearly there yet?

ehi al, what shoud i see? i'm not there with you...

ok, seriously, dont know english so deep but i feel (of course if you were serious) that my concern i wrote you goes beyond the language used: you wrote "it was a BH set" ... you didnt write "it was a BH auction"... the set *IS* for it is still existing... tha auction *WAS* as it ended... (or, at least, this is what in italy should be correct!)

Should have a rule book, map and counters. There might be a mini scenario, too. I can't quite remember.

The description says something about five books inside. Odds are there are at least three modules in it. People are always adding modules to these boxed sets thinking they came that way originally.

As far as condition goes, it looks fine. A set like that usually goes for around $25-35 U.S. without the modules.

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

Anyone want to see my woody?

Have been meaning to post it, since I'm so excited about finally getting one, but haven't found the time to take some pics.

When did you pick a Woody? Was it on Ebay or someplace else and what print is it? Just curious.

He's got a First Print (nicely done!), not from ebay, and not from a regular Acaeum member.

Hope you don't mind me spilling a teency bit of info. Stephen

That's certainly something worth getting excited about!

** expired/removed eBay auction **

I'm currently buying (just to read,but potentially to play) wargames at the moment and I was quite pleased with this.

I'm sure I've seen these go for more - possibly the TRS rather than TSR in the listing didn't help with potential searches.

So, now I've read it, anyone want it? (looking for trades of - FR stuff, polyhedrons, Imagine #9 and certain wargames items if you're interested!!)

Hey Carl, I'd be interested.

What FR stuff are you looking for?
