  1. Oh excellent! I’ll buy it today 👍
  2. Does anyone know which cult book will have the Humakt write up? Thanks.
  3. This is the one I’ve been most looking forward t!o! Not a fan of the cover though.
  4. Honestly, the simplicity of that character sheet is the thing that’s making me almost buy this. And the pretty foliage around Greg Stafford’s name. I’m starting to recall why I liked Pendragon all those years ago. The beautiful folklore, subtle ethereal magic, yearning, sadness, beauty. So different from Glorantha which is almost pungent with magic and trippy. Hmm, I think I’ll get this after I recover from buying my massive fridge!
  5. “Cults” I like it. Back in the day “Cults” of Prax caused a bit of a (glorious) hoo-ha. Own it, I say. The word is part of the Runequest heritage and there’s something about it that is so much more exciting and gutsy than “Religions of Runequest” or “Gods of Runequest”. It gets my attention.
  6. These look amazing. I like this approach of lots of books for the different groups of cults. This is more likely to attract newcomers too. looking forward to the mythology book. Runequest is going to feel much more Runequesty with these! What a beautiful collection this will be.
  7. I wouldn’t use Runequest for Tolkien. Quest Worlds for The Hobbit atmosphere and Pendragon (adapted) for Silmarillion atmosphere. LOTR is more tricky.
  8. I reckon the cults book should have been the number one priority. RQG feels like only half a game to me atm. The cults are essential to play it properly. I suspect that Chaosium do see it as the priority but other projects are just coming to completion more quickly. I have no doubt it’s going to be big and beautiful when it’s done.
  9. I mean, women existed in Britain at the time. African American’s (and, in the wider world, America) didn’t. If a “dude” rocks up from 6th century Africa I’m pretty sure everyone around here would give him/her/them the thumbs up for a knighthood into the round table. And if one of the artists were ever to portray that I think it’d be fully appreciated by this community. You are making issues out of thin air.
  10. Oh it’s been many years since I played Pendragon. I had the first edition with the beautiful cover painting (and a few later editions). The game is a thing of total beauty. A work of art. These days I’m just running games for my daughters and their friends and they are more into Glorantha. I find the Pendragon news more interesting than Runequest news - but Runequest is the game I’ll be using.
  11. Not sure if I’ll be going back to Pendragon but I love the write up and I can’t wait to read more!
  12. I don’t care whether it’s a game tool or a novel, I’d just love to read Greg Stafford’s story, however fragmentary it is!
  13. I do like these “picture maps”. They create a great atmosphere like the picture on the Pavis box. But am I the only one that also wants some proper, flat, top down maps? They are more useful in a game. Not complaining about these maps - I do love them and think they’re awesome. They’re just a bit less useful than a flat map.
  14. Omg, this looks amazing. Any hints about what’s going on with The Rainbow Mounds? Love the colours added to Rainbow Mounds map but it’s a shame people won’t be colouring it in themselves, like we all had to, to solve the mystery of the spectrum emanating adamantine pillar!
  15. The thing is, they were making their best stuff when they were still having those “sharing meetings”.....
  16. Uh oh, the guy presently responsible for all Gloranthan magic is sending out curses! Hide under your hats guys!
  17. This thread confirms that they were correct: role playing IS associated with devil worship! 🤪
