  • RPG Biography
    Had some of my best RPG sessions in Glorantha several years ago.
    Always was fascinated by Glorantha since then.
    Did Fantasy role-playing over several years using a home-brew system heavily based on Runequest III and Hârnmaster.
  • Current games
    Sadly none currently. Trying to find a group for a RuneQuest campaign in current Glorantha.
  • Location
    Munich, Germany
  • Blurb
    After more than 15 years of role-playing hiatus I'm back in a much more intense way than expected since 2014.
    Started to translate several books (HeroQuest Glorantha, King of Sartar, RQ Starter Set) into German language...

  1. As far as I understand Chaosium is using your option 3) exactly, because if you look at Chaosium's page for the Glorantha Sourcebook, 2nd Edition, you will see, that the book is available in UK and European warehouses, but not (yet) in the Australian warehouse. (It's not available in the US warehouse also, as this has been sold out already ...)
  2. wrong answer, please ignore (or delete).
  3. Yes, I can understand that, but as already mentioned, last releases were always as announced (albeit not necessarily for all warehouses ...), and with the recent announcements for the new Pendragon releases I'm pretty optimistic, that the Lunar Cults book will happen in time. (They never said, if beginning, middle or end of March 😉)
  4. From Dragon Pass, Land of Thunder: But as this HeroQuest 1 supplement is not canonical, you probably may have to take this information with a grain of salt ...
  5. This is so true. I've already ordered the book, but now I need these postcards ...
  6. Cults of RuneQuest - The Prosopaedia, p.103. Rathor, last paragraph: Should be "... called Orlanth's Ring."
  7. Cults of RuneQuest - The Prosopaedia, p.23. Choralinthor: This is the only place, where the term "Sea Pantheon" is used. Otherwise it's always "Merfolk Pantheon". So for consistency you should use the same term here.
  8. That's exactly the line, which I thought, that it may have to be changed in my original post: According to Cults of RuneQuest - Mythology, p.123 (PDF) and Cults of RuneQuest - The Earth Goddesses, p.134 the passage marked red should read "... was born of Ernalda and Yelm ..." After all this is the Prosopaedia thread 😉 That's an argument, indeed. Ah, the joy of mythology and confusion. You cannot have one without the other ...
  9. p.133, Voria: According to Cults of RuneQuest - Mythology, p.123 (PDF) and Cults of RuneQuest - The Earth Goddesses, p.134 the passage marked red should read "... was born of Ernalda and Yelm ..."
  10. At least I would expect consistency between the Mythic Maps and the descriptions in the respective Map Locations section, so p.106 (PDF), left column, Neliomi Sea: this name is clearly wrong, as the Late Lesser Darkness map on p.103 (PDF) clearly depicts the Neleomi sea. p.112 (PDF), left column, Valind's Glacier: "... countless icebergs drift into the Neliomi Sea. ...". But the Great Darkness map on p.108 (PDF) clearly depicts the Neleomi sea. Assuming, that the Mythic Maps are the basic resource, my first guess would be, that the use of Neliomi is a typo always and should be replaced with Neleomi. But checking the Guide to Glorantha, I see, that it is the Neliomi Sea always. So it seems, that the Mythic Maps on (PDF) pp.97, 103, 108, and 11maybe3 need to be fixed. Anyway, consistency between the Mythic Maps and the descriptions in the respective Map Locations section should be the goal.
  11. Currently while working myself through Cults of Runequest - Mythology I've run into the Battle of Sporebore. Not being a native English speaker, I have issuese with the meaning of Sporebore. Is the meaning something similar to Sporeborn? Or more something like Sporepit? Or neither of them? So I thought I trigger the Glorantha hive mind here to get a broader view ...
