Amazing Adventures Under Blood Red Moon |Castles Crusades RPG |TLG 2016FRPGD |NM

Description: This book is from an extensive single-owner collection of RPG books and accessories. A lot of time was spent curating this collection and it contains many beautiful pieces from the history of roleplaying. This collection has remained in the same smoke-free and pet-free home. I have tried to be very strict in my condition evaluations and descriptions by following the condition grading conventions set forth on The Acaeum (acaeum.com/frontdesk/grading.html). The specific condition is listed in the title and descriptions for the guidelines I used are below. Unless otherwise described in the description or highlighted in the photos, there should be no holes, tears, or writing and any staples are tight and rust free. All books are boarded, bagged, and shipped in highly protective packaging labeled "Fragile." I know what it is like to get collectibles from sellers who don't give a crap. While I cannot guarantee it if your mailman backs over it with his truck or bends it in half and feeds it to the neighbor's dragon, it should arrive to you in the condition it left me. I care about these books and I hope they will go to homes where they will see similar care and use in years to come. Offers and questions are welcomed! I will try to supply any specific photo requests or info to the best of my ability and knowledge! Though I have done my best to call out any and all wear-and-tear, I am sure there will be a few items where I have missed something, so please examine the photos carefully, as they are of the actual item being sold. If you do not see something in a picture, it is probably not included, though please ask and I will investigate to make sure that is the case (this mostly applies to supplemental material such as maps). Product Name: Amazing Adventures Product Subtitle: Under the Blood Red Moon System: Castles and Crusades Year of release: 2016 Cover Type: SC Publisher: Troll Lord Games Publisher Abbr.: TLG Publisher's SKU#: 2016FRPGD Condition: NM Acaeum Grading Conventions: Near Mint or New (NM or New): There may be a few light stress lines on the spine, but otherwise the spine is strong and intact. Corners are sharp, but can have a little bit of “bumping” or other very minor wear. In general, no creases should be present, though a slight “bend” that does not create a noticeable stress crease may be allowed. The edges may have a few very tiny “bumps” or “nicks”. A few light stress lines are acceptable on the surface, but they should NOT break the color. Surface colors should be bright with at most a few “color flecks” or some very minimal “color fading” (as usually occurs along the spine). Any spots of discoloration or staining would be extremely minor (no more than a few pencil-tip sized dots). In addition, the inside booklet should be complete with no marks, no rust on the staples and all inserts/maps still attached. At most, a few very light marks may be allowed – such as a pencil note next to a creature’s stats or (possibly) and small price written in pencil on the inside flyleaf (as from a used book store). Even though, the above flaws are acceptable in Near Mint condition, an item should not contain any more than a few such defects. An accumulation of several of the above will likely drop the item down another grade. Note: nearly all items described as "mint" in the marketplace are in fact Near Mint. In keeping with this philosophy, we do not offer Estimated Values for any grade higher than Near Mint. Very Fine (VF): A few light creases may be present at an edge/corner or on the inner surface of the cover (such as when a “thumb” presses down on a module cover and creates semi-circular stress lines). There should be no folds or hard creases. Corners can have other wear such as slight “rounding” or “abrasion”. On modules or staple-bound items, the edge of the spine may have some slight abrasions to the outer surface layer, though the spine itself it still strong and intact (this is a sometimes common occurrence from the cover being opened repeatedly). For perfect-bound accessories, light vertical stress lines are more prominent (though not extensive). Staples may have the slightest hint of rust, but should still be at least 90% rust free with no rust stains on the pages. Maps / inserts may be detached -- there can be a few marks written on the these, but they should still be minor and not extensive (no highlighting or marker). Again, judgment must be used as each item is unique. Perhaps two corners may have tiny 1/16” creases at the extreme tips or there could be one very light ½” crease. Fine (FN): Many “high grade” items are actually in Fine condition. At first glance, a Fine item may appear to be a higher grade, but on closer inspection flaws can be clearly seen. There may be several smalls creases or even one slightly larger (1” or 2cm) crease. The top/bottom of the spine may show some abrasion, perhaps even a small 1/8” (3mm) tear. Other possible flaws include: several heavier spine stress lines (either vertical or horizontal), a “scuff” to the surface that removes some of the color, rust to the staples (though at least 75% should be rust free), a tiny tear or very small piece missing from a corner (no more than 1/16” or 1 ½ mm), or a few small stains. Though inserts / maps may be detached and have some minor writing, they should still be intact (i.e. character sheets should not be “cut out”). Often, Fine items simply have an greater accumulation of lesser flaws. Very Good (VG): The “average wear” grade. Spines show stress and may be slightly frayed or have minor tears. Module covers can have “splits” as long as 2” (5cm). Corners are often rounded, creased, or frayed, and edges may show similar wear. Other common flaws are “color fading”, small stains, small tears, and writing on interior pages (perhaps even some highlighting). A slight warping and/or faint “musty odor” (usually from storage in a basement) may also be allowed. Tape may have been used to “repair” the item, but it should be (at most) one or two small pieces. A Very Good item can simply be an accumulation of several minor and moderate flaws or it may have very few minor flaws and one major detractor (such as a fold that goes the entire length of the cover, heavy rust on the staples, a page separated that was not designed to be “detachable”, a large spine split, or writing on the outer cover). Good (GD): Shows heavy wear, but is still solid. A few large flaws plus several smaller flaws may be present. Conversely, Good items may have one or two major flaws: spine splits up to half the length (typical of modules), several large and heavy creases, a small amount of water damage, heavy writing, multiple or large tears, a noticeable odor due to either “mustiness” or “smoke”, significant staple rust & staining, etc. There may be several pieces of tape on the item. On staple-bound books, the cover can be separated from the staples (staple pulls), and on perfect-bound books, some pages may be loose from the binding. A Good item should be relatively solid and intact and still retain some basic appeal to a collector. Fair (FR): Several large and significant flaws. Pages may be detached, a module cover completely split, or the cover loose from a staple-bound book. Large pieces may even be missing from the cover or a page (perhaps as large as ¼ the surface area). There may be significant water damage, extensive soiling, extremely heavy creasing, large tears, etc. The item is still complete (or mostly complete) and useable. Poor (PR): These items have no real value and have flaws that render them completely undesirable and/or useless. Very large pieces may be missing, the items may have fire damage, multiple pages ripped out (and lost), the cover removed, etc. Except for extremely valuable items, there is no collectible value to a Poor item. The Acaeum does not assign Estimated Values to the Poor condition.
