Those two giant binders, all the material between them, and three other smaller binders make up my Hârn and HârnMaster collection. And I'm *years* behind. They really need to get this all out on a CD-ROM or something. Yes, that's the original 1981 Chaosium Thieves World boxed set sitting on top. Complete and intact. I never throw away good stuff! At far left is the 1983 boxed version of the World of Greyhawk. I think the box lid is missing, but all the contents are there. Including the TSR catalog that was included at the time.
The nice thing is, along with owning this bits of gaming history, they're all on shelves and out of boxes!

Date: 14 Oct 2010 06:22 (UTC)I have only about a third of Hârn stuff you have. I got into it somewhat late (perhaps ten years ago) and much of the stuff was hard to get. I don't have the city modules, nor Kanday or Rethem, nor the monster pages, but I think I could whip up a game anyway.
I have once played Hârn, it was about 1991 and a friend of mine bought 1st ed Hârnmaster. We made characters (mine was a Naveh-worshipping thief) and we tried the system by fighting one common orc in the woods. The fight took like five hours of real time to play, and we never returned to the game.
Shame, really, it could've been a good game. I remember looking at the d1000 list of professions and thinking "this is really *not* D&D nor even RQ".
