I must add to my previous post, for I sorta accidentally bought more stuff.
Elhendi - a Finnish roleplaying game from 1993, written by Nordic, the father of Finnish roleplaying. Actually, it's an updated version of an even older RPG called Rapier. It's your run-of-the-mill D&D-ish fantasy, except all PCs are elves, and the available classes are elven warrior, elven mage and elven ranger. The production values are low, but I kinda like the art style. There's also an amusing random generation chart for adventures. I'm a sucker for random generators.
It works like this, actually. First, we roll a d10 (always 1d10) to see who gives us this important mission. Two - a local chieftain. He requests that we (*roll* 9.) hide (*roll* 8.) a specific domestic animal, currently possessed by (*roll* 7.) a wandering ranger, who is currently in (*roll* 1.) a dangerous marshland or forest. Should they accomplish this task, they shall be amply rewarded with (*roll* 10.)... death or imprisonment.
Methinks it'd be time to see about the local chieftain's son's administrative and leadership skills.
Also, I bought Pohjoismaat - Lähdekirja, which translates as The Nordic Countries - A Sourcebook. It's a sourcebook for Twilight: 2000 that's only available in Finnish, written by Joona Vanio and Janne Kemppi in 1990 and one of three such original books for the game, the other two being the sourcebook Erikoisjoukot (Special Forces) and the adventure Kööpenhaminaan (To Copenhagen).
It's pretty much what it says on the tin, and describes what happened to Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland when the Cold War turned hot in 1995. It's well written, though it's understandably aged rather badly.
