I have the Gen Con 2010 Celebrity Game Adventure, Kill the Messenger. Signed by Elmore, Perkins, Greenwood and Salvatore. Was a limited ticketed event in that Con, two sets of 50 people if memory serves. Got a physical, printed adventure, spiral bound. Never seen one for sale.

That and Tunnel Rats, (I know I keep bringing that up but it is rare, especially with the map) are the only two REALLY hard to get items. The Delve Night adventures are a bit of a pain in the butt too. Also, getting all the pieces to go with the various store adventures can be annoying as well.

Great, good to know.  That Kill the Messenger module has not been on any list I've seen.  Not too surprised if there are 100 copies of it and that's it.  I actually went around several sites and ended up picking up a lot of the items I expected to be somewhat difficult to find (mainly the stuff that only went to stores for organized play or were promo modules) and picked up about 40 of them for prices I thought were more than reasonable.  Definitely on the lookout for Tunnel Rats, and I really want to track down copies (probably digital like the others) of those other tournament modules.  I have a lot of interest in those and doing some comparisons with tournaments from other editions.

Hi everyone, I found a nice little local pick-up lot of 4th edition items and had a quick question...

The Dragon Twins Lair (2009) and Tower of Maraj (?) are Delve Night adventures... I have four double-sided cardstock glossy adventure pages for each.. did they come with any additional items??  (e.g. t counters, tokens, tiles, maps, or posters?)

The only pics I see online look to be the pages themselves in SW.

Thanks in advance!


I draw the line at collecting... D&D beach towels.

Shoulda been: ".. from Pangreenia to Floratopolis, from mystical Treeonia of spectral Forests to Schruborial dimensions." - The Forests of Leng

Description for The Dragon Twins Lair from Noble Knight says:

"The Dragon Twins' Lair for is an adventure designed for five 8th level characters and is part of the D&D Delve Night kit. The adventure uses the Fane of the Forgotten Gods dungeon tile set. The adventure takes place in an abandoned temple of Tiamat some distance away from any city.
Includes 4 cardstock sheets with 4 adventures."

I was able to locate more information on Delve Night adventures if it helps... This is from Dragon Magazine #366:

"The first new program we have launches in September and is called
D&D Delve Night. It's a monthly dungeoncrawl adventure that is separated
into four encounters. Each encounter takes about 1--2 hours to
complete.
The encounters are meant to be played one per week, or as often as the
organizer and DM agree to run them. Each encounter is displayed on a full-color
cardstock sheet with all the information needed to DM the session right on the sheet.
Players simply show up with characters of the appropriate level (or create them onsite)
and jump right into the action!
As an organizer, this is a great way to have a weekly D&D game without a large time
commitment. The session can be played on a weeknight, or you can play a longer session
on the weekend using more than one encounter. As a DM, everything you need to run
the adventure is on the sheet; just bring some Dungeon Tiles and D&D Miniatures and
you're ready to go. As a player, you can get a weekly game of D&D in without having to
worry about scheduling time with a group—simply show up at your play location with
the appropriately leveled character (or make one onsite) and you're ready to go.
The first adventure is called "The Tower of Maraj" written by R&D's Rodney
Thompson"

Unfortunately, that seems to be all the information I can locate on Tower of Maraj. However, given the information in Dragon Magazine, it looks as though they are each intended to be similar in format, so I would say it would be safe to assume that they all include the same 4 double-sided cardstock glossy pages.

I think I have all but one (grr...) of the Delve Night adventures, most of them still in a shrinkwrapped pack. They all seem to be just four cardstock sheets, and I don't think they were shipped with any other components.

None of those Delve Night adventures had anything except the four double-sided cardboard pages. Tower of Maraj was one of the harder ones to find, for me at any rate.
