I have a plan so cunning, you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel.

15 books at 10 euros each. Would that be...what...twice the price? If it were dollars would it make more sense?

Hah - maybe a 3 years ago. A British pound is only about a $1.60 now. Still ambitious auction though.

Yeah, I know a lot of Toads e-Bay stock is WAY overprice, but Even for the Toad, this one is simply insane.

And I thought the SWed copy that recently sold for just Above $60 was a tad high. :lol:

My guess would have been $30, $40 tops.

Despite the recent rash of listings for them, a complete Wraith Overlord in decent condition is not easy to find.

And $30 wont (usually) touch a complete Wraith Overlord that is NOT SWed and in the SW it will most likely almost always sell for more than $40.

My top bid was above $40 for the SWed copy that recently sold for over $60.
And I would bid that much again on the next one that shows up in original SW too.

I recall far more copies of Wraith Overlord in the shrinkwrap than out.

This item seems to have sat on store shelves until they went under.

Which is a shame, because it's a damn fine product. Deffinately in my top 10 JG products.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

I agree with this.
Wraith Overlord is a Fine product in SW or not.

Probably Better when not SWed since its easier to use for game play that way. :lol:

I like the concept of Wraith Overlord and I like the maps.

The only thing it's missing is....a wraith overlord.

Maybe it's a simile. Maybe 'overlord' is being used to describe the tome. A play on words that works with CSIO. 'Wraith Overlord' could be read as 'book of great power, of the dead', all be it a little anthropomorphic.
Still, at least if you get it SW you know you have the map. Too many copies have the map missing. That's one of the things I like about the NG 3E release; CSIO and WO in one big tome of hardcover goodness.

Perhaps Wraith Overlord refers to it being a "ghost" of the city above (CSIO), though it should have a wraith overlord to mirror the IO.
