From the Vaults - writing about Greyhawk rarities

[grodog]

New blog post/series begins this evening, on Greyhawk rare/obscure books: grodog.blogspot.com/2019/11/from-the-vaults-greyhawk-rarities.html

I'm interested in suggestions and feedback to guide the priority for what to write about =)

Allan.

I have long wondered about those modules from the R series by Frank Mentzer called the "Dwarven Quest for the Rod of Seven Parts" (or something like that). Do they even exist? If so, I'd be very interested in any details you could share.

You mean these, Geoffrey?: www.acaeum.com/ddindexes/modpages/r.html and www.acaeum.com/ddindexes/modpages/r2.html

The second link covers the Ro7P tourneys.

Well there you go! Thank you for travelling back in time and fulfilling my request before I even made it!

This stuff you have is awesome:

Thanks again!

The only downside is that these modules are, realistically speaking, unavailable. I wish that their owner (whether Frank Mentzer or WotC or whomever) would make them available.

You're quite welcome =) If only my time-travel powers could be used for ill-wrought financial gain too

Yeah, that's a definite downer on some of this stuff, but WotC owns most of the Greyhawk (and RPGA-related) IP outright, but they just don't have any idea what they do own, or the potential value of it. And whether they even have copies is of course completely up-in-the-air after they dismantled TSR's gaming library with the move from Lake Geneva to Renton....
