Hi,



i was thinking of buying this




** expired eBay auction **




but the description puzzles me.



what does it mean that it contains the main Runequest 2nd Edition Rulebook, and at the same time the box does not include the basic rules set rulebook?



any suggestions?



thanks

This came with an early version of Basic Role Playing, which is missing from this copy.

Yes, a copy of this small booklet  is included in several early chaosium boxed set so you will be able to find it easily

I personally think $30US isn't that great a bargain for an incomplete product. Missing dice, the BRP booklet, and Apple Lane aren't exactly killers, but for that price they should be intact.

The sole exception would be if the 2d Edition hardcover of Runequest were snuck in there instead of the paperback.
