No one bought the Lejentia modules. I think it's too bad because the maps and the writing are very good.

I wasn't ready for the wierdness of Lejentia when I was younger...but it fits the campaigns I have done in recent years.

Sacarsm? Or ... really?
I was kept away the reading by the cover art...

No sarcasm.

I like the Lejentia modules and would buy more if they were still being made.

Lejentia was the sort of non-standard campaign setting that I currently prefer.

I'm with you, the Lejentia cover art screams "Elfquest Knockoff" to me (I say this knowing absolutely nothing about it otherwise).

It's the same art tradition...totally different setting.

Demons...evil overlords...humans and good elves in rebellion against the evil elves and humans...strange, sci-fi/fantasy feel to everything.

It's quite good, actually.

The focus of the "modules" is actually more setting than adventure, with NPC's (especially villains) given significant detail in order to show how to play in the rather grim setting.

Hmm, perhaps I will take the time to read them. I am looking for an interesting setting to play with young players.

After looking for quite a while, I finished up Call Of Cthulhu box sets in quick succession. That's 1E1p, 1E2p, 2E, and 3E in the top row. (Yes, I have HotOE too, but it doesn't really go with the others visually.) I'm amused that 1E1p and MoN are in the nicest condition.

I'd love to have a collection of "Call of Cthulhu" sets like this.
Are these also Australian editions?

Thanks
Keith.

The sad thing about Lejentia is that it is incomplete. There was a lot more that could have been done. These modules are really just fragments of the possibilities.

I don't know of any CoC Australian editions. What makes you ask that?

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

I misread your post.

You'd written, "In the same week, I managed to find both Aussie modules that I was looking for."

And so I thought the CoC books were Australian as well.

Thanks for clarifying.

Well, if you did, you'd be creating a rarity.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.
