Another great Avalon Hill bookcase game is "Down with the King!"

I acquired it from the family of a good friend who recently passed away, and it's been added to my collectible shelf.

I had actually forgotten about that one. Anybody know what it's worth, just out of curiosity?

I have a few AH games - the crown being my collectors edition of Tobruk which was limited to distribution at Origins and is signed by the authors and has a special seal on the box.

Mostly, I chase SPI stuff (much more so that AH).

Also, I have been slowly (vey slowly) chased down most "pocket" games from the various companies (metagaming, task force, etc.). Just another side collection...


And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

Ah, the memories ... those were my very first eBay purchases. I was able to fill in some holes in my Metagaming collection; I eventually owned every release from Ogre through Fire When Ready.

At the same time, thinking of that era makes me sad. Those were the days when eBay was honest-to-God fun ... and, clearly, that is a thing of the past.

Without a doubt, Xax.

And who knew that Melee and Wizard (or any other Fantasy Trip product) would be pricing out the way they are now. Hell, I picked them up for a few bucks each six or seven years ago.

Boxed? I never saw it boxed.  I have it in an 8 1/2 x 11 folder with artwork.  I also have the game Sauron in a similar format.  Both from SPI
