Howdy all, being an (unlucky) european guy who is not able to attend this event, i usually wait like a vulture when Doug and other fellows list the stock of goodies from the last convention on rpgmarketplace. This year i didnt find anything over there... is this a matter that all the stock has been sold? ...or nothing has published like in the past years? (or whatever other reason?)

In last years i bought all the wee warriors reprints, the modules of the convention and so on... this year nothing on the radar... could you pls let me know?

Thanks and ciaooo

Is this what you wanted?

Badmike wrote in North Texas RPG Convention 2014: June 5-8:Ok, I have finally found the box with the NTRPG con digests in the wreck that is our new warehouse. Here is a listing on Ebay for the only "new" digest we offered this year, the follow up to Erol Otus' Island Town, Island Town: Expedition. Written and illustrated by Erol Otus, generically statted but it's pretty much straight Dungeons & Dragons. Cost is $15 a digest, shipping is $4 first class or $6 priority, $13 overseas. Each additional copy is $1 extra shipping.

Below is a link for Island Town Expedition with pics of the digest. Acaeum members, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO USE THIS LINK! If you order directly from me here, I will give you a break on the cost since I will not have to pay Ebay fees...I will also combine shipping to one flat rate cost, both domestic and overseas, or use the cheapest method. IF YOU ORDER ON EBAY YOU PAY THE FULL PRICE! Ebay takes a huge bite nowadays...

For the historically inclined, we also still have copies of past digests. Some are VERY limited in number (those marked with a Star). I can combine with Island Town: Expedition, again, only if you order directly through The Acaeum (PM me!).

Castle of Glass by Tim Kask (D&D, 2012)---$13
Sinister Secret of Sweetmeade Abbey by Tim Kask (D&D, 2012)---$13
Death of Tlangashen by Steve Winter (Empire of the Petal Throne, 2012)---$13
*The Tomb of Amemnes by Steve Winter (Basic D&D, 2012)---$14
The Wizard's Amulet by Bill Webb & Clark Peterson (Swords & Wizardry, 2013)---$13
A Simple Clearing of the Land by Jim Ward (Fantasy solo, 2013)---$13
The Long Hard Mile by Jim Ward (Metamorphosis Alpha solo, 2013)---$13
Tomb of the Cursed Pharoah by Jim Ward (D&D, 2013)---$13

This year we only had one "new" digest, Erol Otus' Island Town: Expedition (which actually dates back to 2012 but is just now seeing print). Doug has had a lot on his plate this year (with us moving the warehouse, vacations, and the NTRPG con forum going down) so hasn't listed anything new. The list above is the lates, most accurate listing of what we do and dont have in terms of con publications.

I would also note we have some NTRPG con backpacks left, I think Doug wants $10 each for these but I will ask him...

Not sure how you can get a copy. I played in the second Island Town game at NTRPGC a few years ago and had a great time. The adventure was very entertaining and Erol made up special rhymes for each of the characters names who played in the adventure.

Available now from Die Cast Games: Night of the Black Swords by Allen Hammack (Author of C2-The Ghost Tower of Inverness) with artwork by Jeff Easley and Diesel.

BTW: Since the Island Town Expedition is in shrink I really don't want to open it. Does it have the rhymes with the characters names that were ran through at NTRPGC?

There are 4 pages of limmericks at the end of the booklet, but it doesn't look like they're associated with specific characters.

We are out.

I think Erol's plan is collect all the adventures and publish them in one book...someday.

Got mine Mike, thank you very much!

I draw the line at collecting... Dallas Television Role Playing Game

Did we need: The Magic Dump

Shoulda been: ".. from Pangreenia to Floratopolis, from mystical Treeonia of spectral Forests to Schruborial dimensions." - The Forests of Leng

I'm curious, this claims to be in original shrink. Were these ever offered in shrink?

Thanks! My second hand copy isn't so I wasn't sure.

Have any others been in shrink?

This potentially opens up a whole new area of copies I have to find. :/

Did these have anything that would separate like a map? Shrink is handy for that but otherwise it is easy enough to just bag in a comic-sized bag.

No, nothing detachable. Doug just wanted to shrink these for fun, I believe. I know we also had the Michael Curtis Stonehell Dungeon Lazer Massacre dungeon SW.
