I recently found three RPGA AD&D tournament modules that I judged. They are from GenCon 20 in 1987.

The first is the Star II tournament Rounds 1 and 2.

The second is the Robber Baron tournament.

I have the full GM packets, including the envelopes they were mailed in and the GM schdule for the Star II tournament. All of the items are in great condition except for some yellowing of the paper.

Anybody have an idea on these?

Edit: Also found that I have rounds 1 and 2 of Robber Baron

Tournaments seem to rally in a decent amount of money. They rarely come up but there are collectors for this material. Best thing to do is put them up on ebay and find out exactly what they are worth.

Make sure to put a classified out here when you start the auction.

Yes definitely. Depending on condition of course, but you can probably count on at the very least a couple hundred dollars.

BTW, Welcome to the Board.

Robber Baron doesn't appear to be set in Greyhawk.

Star II is set in Greyhawk and starts at the Hold of the Sea Princes.

I will try to post up some pictures today.

Side note: I found that I have Rounds 1, 2, and 3 of Robber Baron.

Are the maps that mention Hepmonaland and the Pelisso Swamp and the associated drowic stuff from Robber Baron or from Star II? If the former, they're both set in GH!

Here, finally are the shots of Robber Baron. The Hepmonaland and the Pelisso Swamp and the associated drowic stuff are from Star II, not Robber Baron.

I've listed them for sale. Take a look.

Seems these turned out pretty well.

Nice wins there Al, I thought for a second when you were able to win both, that you maybe moved to the dark side. :twisted:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

i am and will always be old school when it comes to stuff like that. they finished nice and convenient for me appx 7ish am. i bid on one just before i went for a run and the other had about 20 mins to run so i just whacked in a stupendous bid, which really wouldnt have been beat, and no, you really dont want to know how much

could have been a rather expensive exercise that one

but nah, i like the blood pumping last 30 seconds too much - far too much fun to miss to do all that sniping lark

Al

ps. which reminds me, Allan (grodog), when i get these, if there is any information you want from them at all, just send me some PM's with whatever you want and i will try and sort it for you.
