The only one I could find was Modern Impact Values at Gambler's Book Club.

http://www.gamblersbook.com/weblink.cby/detail/547805.html

Others (like the titles you mentioned) are listed on his former site as out of print and unavailable.

Maybe there might be copies on eBay, or you might try Googling individual titles.

I just checked, and there is one current eBay listing for Modern Impact Values.

From the description on the listing, I'm guessing the seller is not an "average lay person"

Now before I scare anybody this can be read and interpitted by the average lay person

I checked the ebay link in this thread, and saw the winning bid for MODERN IMPACT VALUES was $76.50 U.S. plus $3.50 shipping and handling. I have a copy of this book in excellent condition (no markings). I'd be willing to sell it for $60.00 U.S., and I'll pay for the postage. Just send me a PM if you're interested.

This book by Michael Nunamaker has a lot of great stats in many categories. In my opinion, I thought the maiden stats were the most interesting of all.


Thanks,

I also have a copy, but don't recommend it. The info in Modern Impact values is waaaaay out of date. The game has changed hugely since it was published. I suggest you go to htr2.com and read through Ken Massa's newsletters, which have tons of database-derived stats. Also, they're free.
