I agree another Al Capone's vault still think fictionalized it would make a good adventure or basis for a module.

After the Nazi train in the tunnel failed to deliver, I suppose they have to dig elsewhere!
It certainly makes for an interesting scenario. In a T2k setting, who knows what might actually be there?

Mpipes wrote up an adventure starter about a Nazi treasure train in Poland for the first Rad Zone contest. Scroll down a bit and you'll see it.

We had a similar treasure trove that was in the 3rd fanzine - i.e. the first RAD Zone writing winner - The Treasure Mine by Malcolm Pipes

No problem. I would have referred people to the fanzine, but I forgot MPipes' piece was in there.

I personally think the Nazis buried a lot of things as the Allies closed in.

Another treasure that is known to be out there are the silver SS Rings that all SS officers received. Each SS officer's ring was returned to Germany and enshrined in a castle (the name escapes me right now) upon their death. One of the last things Himmler did before fleeing was to have the rings moved into a cave (or maybe mine) and seal the entrance.

Those rings were rather large probably weighing at least an ounce or more. And there were THOUSANDS of them hidden and blown up (the Russian Front was a meat grinder after all).

There is still a lot of looted artwork missing. While many think it was all destroyed, I personally think most of it is buried in a mine someplace, hence my adventure.
