[QUOTE="grodog, post: 3727425, member: 1613"] Rob had actually plotted out several City of Brass adventures/sourcebooks over the years. The first one was "(To the) City of Brass" which was run as the 1987 RPGA AD&D Open at DragonCon #1 (and was where I first met Rob); that version is available on both the Acaeum (in its first online format) at [url]http://www.acaeum.com/library/citybrass.html[/url] and on Canonfire! at [url]http://www.canonfire.com/cfhtml/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=7[/url] (this is the old NG freebie version). This was going to be followed-up by more adventures that took the PCs into the CoB itself (the first just brings them to the gates). Rob later contracted with Kenzer to write his full treatment of the CoB sourcebook, but he broke his leg in 7 places and was hospitalized and then offline for about 6 months, so Kenzer had a second author step in to complete the ms. The version published by Kenzer is probably about 40% RJK and 60% Jeff Knight. The horrible irony of the project is that Rob had nearly completed the ms. while offline, and was in the process of turning in the 89K word ms. when SR'sCoB was published. This version was sold at auction by Rob awhile ago, for about $200 or so IIRC. In terms of quality, I rank the Sir Robilar's City of Brass book as one of Hackmaster's best books, since it's much less parody than most other books in that line. Rob and I have been talking to Kenzer off and on for a year about buying the rights to CoB back, so hopefully Rob's full version of the City of Brass will be published in due time as well. [/QUOTE]
