Buffalo Castle - 1st Edition - 1st Ever RPG Solo Adventure  8O

** eBay auction listing blocked.  Please enable cookies in your browser for this site and for eBay! **

Love the description for the premium price: "This vintage RPG adventure appears to be in Good condition, complete & intact, moderate wear, almost no writing or marks, off-white pages."

Aside from "appearing" to be in good condition and "almost" NO writing or marks, this is worth at least a few hundred bucks  PDT_Armataz_01_05


"Okay, we turn the corner and see a Purple 'WHAT' !?!" . . (the DM rolls a 20 or so he says) . . It all went black right after that.

Not an auction, but $500 for a set of Whimsy Cards seems a bit high, even by NKG standards. I think I paid... $15 for mine?

Whimsy Cards - Ars Magica - Noble Knight Games


Areas of interest/knowledge: Harn, WFRP, Ars Magica, anything BRP based such as CoC, Runequest, Pendragon and all their related games

What was the deal with LotFP anyway? I heard some controversy about one of the original writers being an abuser or a MAGA chud or something?

Wasn't Zak a porn star in LA who liked D&D and ran a game with his fellow porn stars and blogged about it, and I recall an interview with Vice or some such fluffery, only for one of his 'friends' to claim he abused her metooy or something like that? Then the whole industry shat itself and went running and hiding under rocks lest they get associated with the big bad Zak and get cancelled by all the young wokers?

I don't think Veins had anything to do with Zak. It was published by LotFP though, and it was the book that brought Scrap Princess to the fore.

>Edit< With regard to Veins, it was Patrick Stuart who made it so.

This book has no links with zac s.
This book is by Patrick Stuart and it is a good book... I posted it here because i have never seen a similar end value for such a book...

Wow, that enquiry is old.

What was the story? It all happenned like 5-6 years ago when I wasnt't around.

There seems to have been zero evidence other than a he-said-she-said argument between two porn stars, and the only reason any of us know about it is because the guy was a pretty successful writer/artist in the OSR space.

But this was happenning at the height of the 'D&D writers are racist/mysoginist' social crusade, so the overreaction by the industry in response to the woke hysteria was to be expected in retrospect. However, other than all the hand wringing hysteria among the snowflake generations, we see no evidence that the racism/sexism ever actually existed, the accussers offer endless accusations but never present any evidence that anything they are saying is the truth, and seem only to be dissatisfied with the way they 'feel'.

Whilst maybe none of us would like to think our kids may watch porn stars playing D&D on YouTube, or have to explain to them what porn stars are and why they've discovered that certain OSR products are written or illustrated by them, I'd suggest that maybe the flaw in the moral construct of the liberal side of our cultures is that there was no objection to 'was actually a porn star', which should at least equal any objection to 'was accused of doing something by a porn star'.

As I understand it, based on what's online, she accused him of rape on social media after a tumultuous breakup. She never reported anything at the time and never made any report to the police, never offered any evidence. She seems to have just decided to voice her opinion to try to get him cancelled, and in the light of the climate of the day, she succeeded. Sounds very much like the Brett Kavanaugh thing.

Both characters seem to have has the questionable moral compasses of porn stars. The willingness to be honest that one would expect, and other than generally wondering what actually is the truth behind what happened (as opposed to peoples preferred truth to suit their chosen sensitivited), there really is a question to be asked about how and why anyone could or should be cancelled based purely on the prickly feelings of a generation of overly sensitive children who just don't seem to be able to grow up and mature, and want the world around them to be infantilised to suite their feelings.

There has been a lot of bad parently, not least in leading otherwise intelligent boys and girls into porn acting.

Thankfully though the world has moved on, and those pursuing their woke agendas have (whether they care to acknowledge it or not) much more pressing concerns to address in the world.

That's the extra-obscure black & gold edition, which is worth a half-dozen Wilmark Dynasty modules.
