Personally, I'm skeptical. Although I doubt that these claims will prove accurate, I hope that they do. This legend could make for a really interesting encounter/campaign hook for a Poland-based campaign.

Or
How about Aztec gold or the Cortez stash in the Arizona Mountains
More realistic however is oefinding a collector / survivalist weapons and gear stash after the dust settles, at least here in western Colorado. I have seen two that were amazing and that was over twenty years ago. I have of course heard about a number in this area but without confirmation.
A partial list of one;
One Ma deuce fifty in working order and legal with it a .30 air cooled also legal.
Twin .30 carbine full auto and an Uzi, then fourteen examples of military full auto weapons from WWII.
Add in the fifty or more service handguns of various types and you have a beginning of this one mans collection.
His armory connected to a years worth for twelve of food, generators and water purification equipment
About the only stuff he did not have were explosives and he had permits to get them for his oeranch/farm as he might need.
The one good thing was he was mostly sane and a Korean War vet. And reserve Lt. Col. Retired.
Yes I still visit with him and no I will not say where this is at.Tis better to do than to do not.
Tis better to act than react.
Tis better to have a battery of 105's than not.
Tis better to see them afor they see you. -

Ah ha! This is the same claim that mpipes referenced in his thread Adventure Seed. Seems this particular Nazi gold story is really doing the rounds.

LOL I love this place!!!
And he is the guy that is a MG gunner and wonders if my man who used a 50 in Korea is all there.
Hell no! He is only mostly sane LOL, just like me.
I am of the generation of cops that thinks it is ok for a non-criminal to have legal rock and roll weapons but then I am also of the generation that had people running and hiding because we had that horrible PTSD and might have a flash back.
Many years ago I gave a demonstration open to the public at our law enforcement shooting range.
I gave a brief description and then I and some of the more experienced (make that prior military) Officer fired the various weapons. The targets were various breakable objects so that it was very dramatic.
After the show was over a lady came up to me and asked if I was in charge, I replied that I had been tasked with preparing and putting on the demonstration. She then proceeded to tell me that I had damaged the many boy and Girl Scout aged young people that had attended and that many of them would very likely think they should join the Military.
I just stood by and waited for the punch line until I realized that was it.
I told her that all the demonstrators in the program were exmilitary and that several were still in the reserves. She responded with "well nothing can be done about them they are already damaged, but you should not teach killing to children and make it look like it was fun or even enjoyable."
I told her she may be right that I was indeed afflicted with PTSD and that one or two others may have similar problems, she stepped back a step and said "and the Sheriff lets you work as a Deputy with a GUN! "She paused; I smiled (not a very good idea after my statement." I am going to see that you are dismissed if it is the last thing I do!"
I said yes mam there are a number of people that feel that way, of course all of the others are in Prison.Tis better to do than to do not.

People like that truly test my sanity and self control.If it moves, shoot it, if not push it, if it still doesn't move, use explosives.

Doubt it. I used Google Maps, and looked at Walbrzych Poland.Originally posted by RN7 View Post

I think that's one of the features you have to buy Google Maps Pro to see...I laugh in the face of danger. Then I hide until it goes away.Comment

No man, the gold's already gone. Google sent one of those guys driving around, mapping the world 24/7 with the big dish/dome on the roof of their car to collect it as soon as the rumor surfaced. The gold is already on its way to the nearest Google facility in the trunk of that guy's car.Originally posted by Sanjuro View PostComment
