Contents

Publication history
Bili the Axe: Up the Harzburk! was written by W.G. Armintrout, with a cover by Ken Kelly, and was published by Steve Jackson Games in 1988 as an 80-page book.[1]
Bili the Axe, as an adventure for GURPS Horseclans, was one of several adventures for the GURPS line, most of which were solo adventures, following the trends of MicroQuests for The Fantasy Trip.[2]
Bili the Axe was recalled by the publisher due to an error that makes the scenario unplayable.[1] The book is notorious for having been printed with a serious error in the numbering of the paragraphs, making it virtually impossible to play the adventure as designed. When Steve Jackson Games discovered the error, it recalled and destroyed all available copies. The adventure has never been republished, and the few copies that were bought in the brief period it was available have become rare collector's items.
