Hi Winterwords!

I was wondering where you'd gone.

Welcome back.

I have probaly bidded against some of you guys at one time or another or maybe you have won some of my rpg auctions before on the rare occasion that I actually run auctions.

16 Large boxes make up my collection, mostly 1st & 2nd edition. My favourite Items are Dungeon Magazine, High Level adventure modules, ( Throne of Bloodstone is my favourite) and early TSR  items. I have been working on an original Campaign module using 2nd Edition rules for about 3 years now. I have 3 spiral notebooks filled with details and original maps. It is an Underdark campaign set in a ruined cursed Dwarven city. I am constantly revising it.


hello there!

welcome to the Acaeum! hope you enjoy your time here :)

you should tell us all more about your campaign! sounds really interesting. you may wish to have a word with Rob Kuntz about it :)

I wasn't aware that our royal family had belated taken up its offer and that we'd become Greeks, overnight... So long as the rest of the board don't expect us to come bearing gifts... ;)


Greetings, Richard! Know what you mean about time. :?
Well, after a few months visible around here you won't have any money, either! :)

Welcome, Richard!

Never mind Killjoy...he's still mad that court jesters were left out of the Bill of Rights.   :)

Good literary reference, Faro.

sadly tho, my friend, is thats the case here too....our country is also ran by muppets who may as well be court jesters.

ANYWAY.....too O/T so...

Good literary reference, Faro.

barbaroi - "all those foreigners who go around making bar, bar sounds rather than speaking Greek proper". That'll include Conan and most of the population of Warrington, I guess. :)


Thanks, Mark. And here was me worried the second part could've killed the thread and carried it away stone-dead, given that that was a bit of a Trojan hearse...
