About the only RPG stuff I'm looking for are the various 40K series books from FFG. A good deal of it has been drastically reduced on ebay it is still an expensive and fairly large amount of books.

The few things I'd like don't exist in published form or at all. Gygax's City of Greyhawk, Plane of Shadows, Castle Greyhawk in a prepared for publication format. Might as well ask for the continued adventures of Wormy.

For the most part my interests have diverged into wargaming and writing my own adventures and supplemental material for 1e AD&D. I will need an office printer fairly soon and paper and lots and lots of ink. Hopefully Odin will bring them for me during Yule.

This is a wish list, Jason: no reason to not shoot for the stars, right?

Looking forward to hearing more about these!

stratochamp wrote in Christmas wish list:red bus, EVERYONE would like a nice first print Stormbringer. i'm not sure one exists. after 20+ years of hunting for one, the best i've come up with is a VF. it must be all that chaos bursting out of the box.

I bought one in SW this year (and opened it!). It actually went surprisingly cheaply.

Areas of interest/knowledge: Harn, WFRP, Ars Magica, anything BRP based such as CoC, Runequest, Pendragon and all their related games

I could always use more RPGA Slipcover Cases...

And a few more Dragon Magazines, with covers, that I am still missing...

RPGâ€™s, D&D in particular has had a major influence in my life. Itâ€™s bonded me together with life long friends...itâ€™s that bond in life not just as friends, but in our jokes, our mannerisms, and what we find funny. Invincible Overlord

Two things come to mind, among those items that I could actually afford. Shy of winning the lottery I'll never be able to justify the cost of a woodgrain box set.

A complete set of the WoTC 1E reprints ... (nope, I don't like the company, either, but I bought Unearthed Arcana and I love the quality).
A set of really cool modules to study*

* I already have the classics (G-series, D-series, T1, S-series, A-series) but there are several I've never read (or even seen), like the FR series, WG series, Dragonlance, UK, etc.

Sorry perhaps cast a sour note on this thread by adding my personal predicament. Was a bit stressed that day.

Heading home tomorrow and I would like an Orange B3 and a full set of the Borkelby's Folly fanzine! :sunny:

Well, if its a list of dreams... and in no particular order:

1) All unpublished works by Gygax, Arneson, Hargrave, and Bledsaw to be in print, including all active campaigns they used.

2) Either a 1st print woodgrain or a complete 10th anniversary set

3) DAT to be the third artist to complete an Acaeum print.

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.
