Sometimes I Forget I Own the Wilderlands Boxed Set



As I begin my delving into the City-State of the Sea Kings, it reminds me that I own the Wilderlands of High Fantasy boxed set. Which is cool, but I wish I owned the Judges Guild originals.

Ah, for a time machine. I remember my trips to the Complete Strategist in the late 80s and early 90s, where pretty much every Judges Guild product was on sale for original cover price - it lined the floor on the left side of the left isle. To my teenage eyes, it looked cheap and poorly put together compared to the TSR (and Role Aids) releases. To know then what I know now.

Sure, I've picked up some of the releases in PDF over the years, but original Wilderlands releases? I'm sadly lacking. I'll need to fix that at some point in the future.

The maps in the boxed set surely do rock :)

  2. I'm so glad a player of mine showed me his Wilderlands box and I got my own copy when I had the chance!
    Although I have to say, I've never yet run a 100% successful Wilderlands campaign, to the extent of eg my AD&D Yggsburgh game or my 4e Forgotten Realms Loudwater game. I think I'm still missing a trick for running Wilderlands, and trying to work out what it is.
