Some years (not sure about this year), they have had package sales where you can buy "The Golden Ticket". As part of the package, you also receive a copy of the True Dungeon scenario for the year as a written adventure.

Now I remember, that is a token you can get from the token packs. Very rare indeed.

Games can get you through times of no money but money can not get you through times of no games!!

Yes, it could be part of that package - I can't seem to find mention of it right now.

"The Golden Ticket" is a very rare token but as part of some package you could get the hardcopy of the module. I'm thinking that less than 50 of these modules were ever printed.

Hi,

reading thru what I've let myself in for in the TD, it says you can buy:

100 pack = $1,000 plus 20 FREE bags (a total of 120 packs) PLUS four UR tokens of your choice. PLUS, you will receive a signed copy of the uber-cool module after the event is over in October. This module will contain a map of the event as well as many illustrations not available anywhere else. And the module will be cool � really cool! Plus, you get one free ticket to the exclusive Token Buyer�s Dinner (see below).

So a bargain then!

Cheers,
malc

Have to make sure I make room in the Friday night schedule for that then, lol. I think the only thing we have going on is watching the Zombie walk late that evening.

True, but never in an exclusive adventure concocted just for them...so there. nyaaah! nyaaah!

The morning adventure time sounds like it might be do-able.

If anybody is near the Chaosium table at Gencon Indy I would appreciate it if you could pick me up a printed copy of their BRP quickstart rules.
They just released an updated version (in PDF) that includes a short adventure that I wrote for them last year.
A note on their web site indicated that they would probably print some for Origins and Gencon.
I will of course compensate you for postage, packaging etc. to ship the item to me.

Check out my Chaosium sourcebook.
