It says "Reprinted 6th edition 1981" on the inside of the title page (what is that page called?). There is only one booklet....is there more than one? The map of Thunderhold is on white paper, folded into the center of the book and there are dungeon maps on the reverse side. There are also dungeon maps loose in the package. Did I do OK?

That option wasn't making much sense since #12 is just all those other pieces put together; Judges Guild Questions • Page 2 • Judges Guild • The AcaeumTry again?

My guess would be #10..#10 "requires" "I" and vice versa. As is supported by the deliberate grouping/choice of name in that booty list description for #12.Plaag wrote:Do you suspect a Guide to the City State that has a different Booty List that the one you posted as a possibility?

Noted.And per the link above, "I did ask previously whether anyone else had a different highest number [in their Guide Book], but no luck on that".<reindeergamez> will have another copy to check, though... *nudges*I went around the other possibilities such as the white "I" being "1st edition" (*g*), but nothing really computed any better than the possibility of a further printing of #62.Best left as an open research question for now, phps?

Aside; do we actually know whether there was any special packaging for #12, rather than just a standard mailer stuffed with goodies?
