Wow! I'm guess that one isn't going to get reprinted anytime soon.

Of all these the most important is water temperature. You simply cannot get a good cuppa without boiling water.

Absolutely, I'm more of an oolong man myself but I agree that Yorkshire tea is quite good. I'd also recommend http://stashtea.com/.

Wow, what a bizarre concept. The goal is too get into suburbia!?!

Hmm, no, I don't have a gambling problem, I'm winning, and winning is not a problem. That's like saying Michael Jordan has a basketball problem, or Def Leppard has an awesomeness problem. So why don't y'all pour some sugar on that?

Lost City of Gaxmoor.

Why is this one so exciting

Games can get you through times of no money but money can not get you through times of no games!!

I don't think it is terribly exciting. It seems to be pretty massively produced though.

Hi Bombadil -

I have a copy that I picked up on ebay last year - I saw it and picked it up on a whim. It's not as interesting as it first appears though. Let me know if you want more info on it before you decide to bid, and I'll dig it out.

Regards

Mike

Thanks, Mike. I'm mainly interested in the production quality...artwork, writing, depth, physical quality of the paper, etc. Any details would be welcome.

Thanks!

Let mirth prevail!

Hi Stephen -

PM sent with some photos of the game - let me know if you need any further info. (PM'd to avoid clogging the thread with large photos... if by any chance anyone else wants photos of the game, PM and I'll send them out).

Regards

Mike

It's OK. Badly edited, as most TLG books, but it has some interesting content, and was originally set in Greyhawk. There were some posts to that effect back on Greytalk when it was originally released, I'll have to see if I've still got the printouts of the background (since the online versions vanished with the Greytalk archive).

FYI, these are actually Story Path cards, not Whimsy cards, which are an earlier inspiration for the SP cards (and rather different in game play/usage).

For some details, see Shannon Appelcline's history of Lion Rampant on rpg.net @ http://www.rpg.net/columns/briefhistory ... ry10.phtml

The above URL has links to more detailed articles on on White Wolf. According to one of those other links, an additional 81 Story Path cards were released in 1996 by Three Guys Gaming. To me that sounds like nine 3x3 sheets of cards. Has anyone ever seen these?

Yes, they were actually issued inside a plastic VCR box for packaging, and were more like the Whimsy Cards than the Storypath cards in style and play usage. I still prefer the originals, but the 3 Guys folks did make some nice additions to the original Whimsys.

Oops. Well, in my defense they do actually read 'The New Whimsy Cards!' on the front...

No worries, CelticTony, without knowing Whimsy Cards beforehand (and they were rather limited in print run), there's no way you'd know otherwise
