My 70's show

Big ass shirt collars.



Hiding in the trunk of an Impala to sneak in to a drive in showing "Cheech and Chong's Up in smoke". And being quite stoned the whole time.

Girls in tube tops.




Drinking Lucky Lager cause it was cheap. You could get a case for like $2.50

platform shoes and bell bottom jeans



The whole 70's run of the Avengers, Culminating in Avengers #176 and #177

Reading Mad, Crazy, Cracked and Car Toons

Adidas

Ten speed bikes (I had a Schwinn Varsity)

Having a Geek crush on Wonder Woman, Isis, The Asian chick from Ark II, and Electra woman & Dyna girl.




Boz Skaggs "Silk Degrees" and "Frampton comes alive"

Trying to buy peppermint schnapps because we heard girls would drink it.

8 Track tapes-remember how they would fade out, change tracks and the fade in?

watching 8mm porn in my buddies garage.

Double dating in my buddy Bill's Polara - it had a 3 speed push button transmission (no shit).

And this song...

Evil DM Auction – Tarzan and Casca Paperbacks!

This week we take a break from games and move to my other passion – books.

When you have as many books as I do (which is too damn many according to “She who must be obeyed”), you eventually pick up a few doubles – which is the case with a few of the Tarzan’s. And when you find a true Pulp rarity sitting amongst a pile of bargain-bin Harlequin romances, your soul screams to rescue them – as was the case with the Casca books.

The Tarzan’s aren't really rare at all but they are fun to read.

The black covers are:

#9 Tarzan and the Golden Lion

#10 Tarzan and the Ant Men

#12 Tarzan and The Lost Empire

#13 Tarzan at the Earths core

The white covers are:

#7 Tarzan The Untamed

#8 Tarzan the Terrible

#17 Tarzan and the Lion Man

and finally, a 1964 copy of #22 Tarzan and the Foreign Legion

The Casca’s are quite a find, especially since they are all early ones:

#1 Casca: The Eternal Mercenary

#2 Casca: God of Death

#3 Casca: The Warlord

and #7 Casca: The Damned

Not a bad haul for a Casca fan. All are in decent readable condition. See the picture-

****BIG DAMN DISCLAIMER****
I am not a professional grader of books. These are “reading copies” I rescued from Goodwill . As I've stated in previous auctions, If you want to complete your private collection proceed, if you want to turn a buck and intend to bitch about every bend and crease on the cover, then move on.

The auction is over! Thanks everyone!

Paypal only (no cash, checks, or electrum pieces)

Payment due within 3 days from the end of the auction.

U.S. bidders only (seriously guys, U.S. Bidders only)

Legends of Steel Savage Worlds Edition reviewed on Game Geeks!

Legends of Steel Savage Worlds Edition was given a great review at Game Geeks!

AWESOME!

Paperback search

As you guys know I'm a bit of a pulp-fiction paperback fanatic. I'm having a helluva time closing up a couple of gaps in my collection.

Here are a couple of titles causing me grief.

I have the first three of the Falcon series but #4 is eluding me.

I'm also looking for any of the Wolfs head series. I have a battered and torn copy of #3 but If I should run across a better one I'll take it.



I've checked all the regular places E-bay, Amazon, several used book finding engines. But either its a no-go or they are too damned expensive. I collect to read not to put them in little plastic bags, so spending $25.00 for a used book is not gonna happen.

So if any of you guys have a an extra copy of any of these that you would be willing to let go for a decent price (like under $10.00) let me know.

Evil DM Auction - Gamma World Boxed set with two modules

Okay folks, the first auction went so well we will try another one with a few tweaks.

Up today we have another Goodwill find. A 1981 copy of Gammaworld. Personally I never got into Gammaworld but I know it's near and dear to many a old gamer. In any event I have a rescue policy for any RPG I run across at thrift stores.

The box is in okay shape, a couple of punctures on the cover and the corners are worn.
The rule book looks good and the map is clear.

the two modules are GW1 Legion of Gold and GW6 Alpha factor. both modules are in really nice condition.

****BIG DAMN DISCLAIMER****
I am not a professional grader of RPG's. These are games I rescued from Goodwill folks, I hope to sell them to a Gammaworld fan. Not to some speculator who is gonna turn around and try to make a profit on Ebay. If that was the case I'd do it myself. So consider these games "playable copies" not "collectible" ones. If you want to complete your private Gammaworld collection proceed, if you want to turn a buck and intend to bitch about every bend and crease on the cover, then move on.

Bidding is now over. The winning bid was $33.00

Paypal only (no cash, checks, or electrum pieces)

U.S. bidders only (seriously guys, U.S. Bidders only)

Good luck Gammaboys.

I love me some Santana. Great music to detail your car or bike by.

Swords of Erisa – Help us brainstorm!

With the release of Legends of Steel –Barbarians of Lemuria Edition and the popularity of the Legends of Steel – Savage Worlds edition, Evil DM Productions has decided to follow-up on these successes by moving  forward with the Swords of Erisa product.

Swords of Erisa will address a need that is brought to our attention with almost every email regarding Legends of Steel and the world of Erisa- Adventures.

Whether they play Savage Worlds, Broadsword, or Barbarians of Lemuria, Everyone wants adventures set in Erisa for their Legend of Steel game.  To answer that demand we are currently working on a half dozen adventures covering different areas of Erisa.

We are also brainstorming on other helpful goodies we can add to Swords of Erisa, so far we have-

A rogues gallery of personalities: friends, foes, contacts

A number of detailed places of interest (wineshops, Brothels, Caravansaries)

several locales- border fort, village, ruined keep

some “one-shot” encounters – just like the old “Sidetreks” from Dungeon magazine.

We are looking for things that will fit the genre as a whole, not just one system.  We don’t want to do a whole bunch of new Edges, Advantages, Classes, etc.

We want this to be more of a resource for GM’s. to help them pull something together in a small amount of time.

If any of you have any thoughts, suggestions, or ideas you would like to throw our way please do so!

Legends of Steel – it’s not Conan, but it ain’t so bad

The various editions of Legends of Steel have seen a spike in sales recently. It has come as nice surprise. The best reason I can figure for the spike is the recent news about Mongoose games and Conan Properties not being able to come to an agreement in regards to releasing a Runequest or Savage worlds version of their Conan game.

It seems that on a couple of boards talk of a Savage Worlds Conan Edition morphs into a Sword & Sorcery for Savage Worlds discussion, with someone eventually bringing up Legends of Steel.

I make no claim of Legends of Steel being anywhere near the league of massive efforts like Mongoose's Conan line, but it’s nice to be mentioned as at least being a viable alternative for folks who want some Sword & Sorcery flavor in their Savage Worlds gaming.

And by the way, after several weeks on Amazon, Legends of Steel Savage Worlds Edition finally has a review- and it’s a good one too!

check it out!

Funny stuff from the Golden Age of Cinema

A Blast from Gaming's past- Knights and Magick – Heritage games

Do you guys remember this boxed set?

I remember the teen-aged me thinking his was just the coolest cover.  The grumpy old me still kinda likes it.  For some reason I never picked it up.  Probably because it was a miniatures game.  I never had much skill at painting miniatures, so my gaming was strictly RPG with (shudder) unpainted miniatures.

The Age of Epics Campaign- Part I Brainstorming and Kit-bashing

Today I participated in a discussion on RPGNet regarding the Prince Valiant Story telling game from Chaosium. We all agreed that the system is a wonderful mix of a rules light / setting rich RPG that was really way ahead of its time.

It got me thinking of a "back burner project" I've had for quite some time. I've been toying with a Medieval Age setting for awhile where I could mix Western European tales such as those of Camelot, and Eastern tales of the Orient such as those found in the Arabian Nights.

Now that we’ve released the BoL Edition of Legends of Steel it seems like a great time to work on this a bit more.

I want it heroic in tone and light in magic and I want it set in mythical/quasi Historical Earth.

For my resources I've decided to go with the LoS/BoL rules set. As source book material I'm using:

• The Prince Valiant Story telling game – Chaosium
• Charlemagne's Paladins – TSR
• GURPS Arabian Nights - Steve Jackson Games
• The Adventures of Sindbad - HEX Games

I know there are many more source books and systems I could use but I want to get started on this rather than spend time fumbling around gathering stuff. I also want to stress a heroic upbeat tone rather than a dark and brooding one. And these were the best choices for that which were at hand.

From the material I gathered I want to kit-bash a world in the same vein as the Prince Valiant comics. I also want it to expand and share it's universe with other legendary heroes near or about that period.

On my "Age of Epics" Earth Prince Valiant, Morgan Le Fay, and King Arthur will share the world with Sindbad, Ali Baba, Maugris, and Roland.

The main rules tweak I will have is that the use of magic is entirely the realm of the GM. There will be no magic using player characters. That isn't to say that players cannot play Priests or Mages, they can- it's just that they wont be allowed access to spells. The Mages will be more like Alchemists and Sages with a bit of sleight of hand thrown in.

Holy men, be they Mullahs, Monks, or Priest of Odin, will rely on their faith rather than their deity handing out "Cure light wound" spells every day.

There will still be magic wielding adversaries, Magical creatures, enchanted items, and more.

More to come…
