Hi guys,
I see Indiana Jones as a sub-title. Are there any threads related to this ?

PS : I am currently working on some Indiana Jones Savage World stuff and also wondered if any of you have the West End Games Indiana Jones RPG books. I have most of them but still missing 3 books I can't get. Any help would be appreciated if any of you have a copy.

Which ones are you missing?

Jackmunchkin · « **Reply #2 on:** January 11, 2018, 12:23:42 PM »

Missing Artifacts, Adventure and Sky Pirates. Been looking for them for a while. Can be found but above 100 or even 200 USD which is far beyond what I would pay for. I could not even find PDFs online. A fan recently accepted to scan his copy of "Golden Vampires", very cool.

I'd never even heard of that before! Is it a D6 system like the old WEG Star Wars?

Unfortunately no, it's based on the Masterbook system, derived from Torg - it uses 2 X D10 plus a deck of cards. This choice of system instead of the already successful D6 at that time has been labeled a "commercial suicide" by a former WEG executive.

Take a look:

WEG even recognized their mistake and published in 1996 a book called Indiana Jones Adventures with D6 conversion guidelines and four D6 adventures that sold very well, even more then other TWoIJ supplements, but their license soon expired and was not renewed by Lucasfilm.

FFG is currently talking with Disney about relaunching this book, since a new Indy movie will hit us in 2019... (FFG is releasing a boxed edition of the 1st WEG's STAR WARS RPG: https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/products/star-wars-the-roleplaying-game-30th-anniversary-edition/ )

Many thanks but the link doesn't seem to be working... I googled the link and seems to be coming from TheRaven forum ? Do you have the files yourself ?

FionaWhite · « **Reply #11 on:** January 13, 2018, 10:13:05 AM »

Link seems to time out for me too. Might just be Rapidshare having issues?

Jackmunchkin · « **Reply #12 on:** January 13, 2018, 10:59:43 AM »

I think this is an old link which was posted on the Raven forum. They are usually temporary. I'm trying to mail DinoHunter but the forum message system doesn't seem to work well for me.

The link works fine for me, the problem seems to be with Rapidshare - the time of access and the proxy server you're using. So patience and try again later.

Most of the WEG products can be purcha$ed at Amazon.

Aeons ago, LAF once threatened to ban me for sharing my own PDF files, although remote linking seems to be ok most of the time... So all I can say is that a real committed fellow would find some treasures here (searching with Ctrl + F usually don't work here, you have to search manually in tons of files): https://img.fireden.net/tg/image/1483/48/1483481036028.pdf

I fully understand about copyright issues but these books are out of print and the ones I am looking for are in the 100 to 500 USD range on Amazon and Ebay. I'll try again that rapidshare link but tried several times on two different computers and it doesn't seem to be working at all, hence my request for another download link (megaupload ?°. Sorry if I am bothering you but trying to find this books has really been a pain

Thanks for that other page, I'll look into it.
