Yes indeed [glow=red,2,300]WOW[/glow], that is a nice bonus!!! Abyss is a great little pocket adventure that I struggled to get hold of. There are 3 such adventures, namely Abyss, Goblin Lake and Circle of Ice. Chances of getting hold of the other 2 are very slim to say the least. I have had a post in ebay's 'Want it Now' for Goblin Lake to no avail.

Hmmm. I am encouraged by the thought that there are two more Pocket Adventures out there, but it sounds like the odds of getting hold of 'em are just slightly less than the odds of dropping something and having it fall upwards. Well, it's a one-in-something probability, right? Look up, everyone. P.S. Hey, I'm a Troll Teen now. Kewlness.

Nice find Ahnn Uuh! I guess the secret is just to keep looking!

I find EBay quite erratic when it comes to T&T stuff. Sometimes there is a whole page of solos and stuff, when at other times there's one or two items. This is normal I suppose for an auction system, as there isn't a never-ending supply of T&T stuff for sale. I put my original GM dungeon on there and it got 1 bid in a week, which I found surprising and discouraging I haven't seen any new stuff on there for a while now, just the same old items. When rare items turn up, I can't usually compete with overseas bidders as p&p is too high for the UK. Luckily though, I just need 2 T&T originals to have a complete set (although not all solos in all printings and forms, that would be silly

1. Perhaps no one bid on your dungeon because no one knew what it was. I'm sure it's not part of a product listing anywhere on other modules, so perhaps no one bid because of that.
2. Can you tell us which two T&T originals you are missing? Perhaps I can search for it as well.

Silly? But that's really what you want, isn't it Boozer?? :-)
Yeah, which 2 are you looking for if you don't mind us asking? I'm curious!

I'm guessing 'Elven Lords' is one of them, since it's so rare (1000 numbered copies). I wouldn't mind a copy either, if anyone has one to spare.

Interesting. I had heard only 1000 were done. Well, you live and learn.

Yep, [glow=blue,2,300]ELVEN LORDS [/glow]and [glow=green,2,300]GOBLIN LAKE[/glow], are the only 2 'official' T&T products that I believe I need to make my collection complete. I've posted a 'want it now' on ebay but to no avail. I actually have a copy of Goblin Lake knocking about somewhere. I have no idea where I got it. All I can remember is that I came across it on the internet one day a few years ago when I was browsing at work, so I printed it off. Sounds a bit suspect though... But it's nice to have the original book though isn't it PS - Any excuse to use the glowing text - I love it!

Actually, there were 1150 numbered copies of Elven Lords. I have number 835, signed by both Michael Stackpole and Elizabeth Danforth. Mine is #67 of 1150. Since Elven Lords is such a limited edition, I wonder if it would be "okay" to share xeroxed copies? I mean, since Flying Buffalo and the authors won't be getting any more profits from sales and the only people who now make money on the module are sellers on e-bay.....

I don't see a problem with that. Ken's all for sharing T&T stuff amongst the community. It wouldn't hurt to drop Ken or Rick (or both) an email if you want to check it out with them first?

Definitely check first. The author may have an objection, and Ken / Rick may possibly want to reprint it if there is demand.
If we can legitimately copy it, that would be great. But this should be checked out first.

Say ... that's a nice list! Too bad they don't have pictures of all of the old products. I would really love to see (for example) a 1E T&T rulebook cover.

Thanks for posting that link of mine from Trollhalla Quoghmyre I wonder what those strange products are all about that were discussed on the Walla? 'Demons & Notmen'? Sounds odd to me. Anyone got any more info. on them?
