Hi fellows, i recently found a "spare" copy of a torney module: it was an extra copy in case someone got lost his copy during the convention... at the end of the convention (Gamesfair 1981) these spare copies were given away as a freebie!

I'd like to know if anyone has info if this module has been further published...

Hereby some piccies... enjoy!

Neat! Thanks for sharing the pictures.

The Acaeum page for the X-series notes that the scenario for X8 was originally run at Gamesfair 81, "where it was possibly titled "Island of Death"". So that page could be updated with the correct title, per the third photo: TEKI-NURA-RIA: The Mountain of Death.

I also note that the page for the UK series says: "The working title for UK7 was "Teki Nura Ria"", but that's clearly an error in view of this find.

Work for you, Foulfoot.  8)
