This is also my main goal;) Wrong forum to tell you what happens afterwards...

I'd prefer having beautiful women in lingerie, not chains, I'm not in that kind of stuff...

You see..now...that's my point! An evil wizard with lacivious designs on a beautiful woman would dress her in lingerie, not chains. He would enchant her and charm her and stuff, rather than lock her in his evil-atorium.

I think that chains are just an excuse. He wants the beautiful woman around but he doesn't actually want to interact with her.

If he's a 3.0/3.5 wizard he probably has to make a concentration skill check every time his girlfriend starts to bug him. It would play hell with his research!

I would think he would want to interact with her on a regular basis. :twisted:

** expired/removed eBay auction **

Is this a steep BIN at $59? I remember some recent talk about this but can't remember a discussion of the going rate.

FormCritic!!! You keep describing me and giving me the attributes of some "evil wizard"

I'm actually a great guy!

Just don't ask any "beautiful women" who know me...

Ask me about my new M16!

Wow, the contents of the box have zero relation to the box itself. The miniatures look pretty cool nonetheless. Are they Napoleonic?

I guess. Don't know anything about it, except that something was going to be weird because I was sure the original contents were not the 30 figs noted in the title.

Same seller has another box with Napoleonics:

And in this set, the critter or head in the bottom right looks fairly Lovecraftian, so I'm guessing most of the sets are mixed up to varying extents:

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

I love the "reviews." One of my favorites was;

Rappan Athuk Reloaded, so I doubt this is flying under the radar.

Interesting to note that it is relisted due to a previous non-payer last time? Genuine, or cause for concern shilling??

I bid on this the first time round. IIRC there was a retracted bid as well, although I have since deleted the email from eBay, so can't be sure.

Just wondering if there was any dicussion re the distribution of the numbered sets... I found # 600 something on the shelf here in Ontario and another #600-and-change in Alaska... is there anything interesting about which sets went where? Are any high or low numbers special somehow?
