I've never found the Chaos one, but have the others. Maybe someday.

I hate replies like this. I guarantee that at some point in your life, probably at many points, you've been anxious for/curious or impatient about something that didn't contribute to your survival. Stop being holier than thou.

It probably won't surprise you to hear that I agree with all of this. I'm fairly sure that your reference to lecturing people as a forum helper includes lecturing me. 🙂 I have trouble being as diplomatic and thorough in covering bases as you were here, so I'm glad you said it for me in way that should only rankle particularly sensitive or defensive folks. The only other thing I'll say, with sincerity and regret, is that Chaosium's way of doing things has turned me off to the degree that I've deleted most of my bookmarks and try not to think about it or them these days, as it only raises my blood pressure. I've been a fan of RQ for 35+ years. I've also been a fan of TTRPGs for that long, and I've never seen a company this (in my opinion) mismanaged.

Of course it works. Almost every RPG company does it that way.

That's extremely disingenuous considering that is one of three solutions Soccercalle wrote.

There are no major additions, but there's another thread on this forum that bullets the changes that were made.

Solar. Already mentioned. And then Darkness. No Chaos for a while. Who knows about dates for any of it, really. They are obviously in no hurry.

Where do you find your maps? I quite like this one.

What does that have to do with shops having a date but not announcing one for direct customers? Quoting only part of my post doesn't make the rest of it disappear.

I find it hard to believe that bulk buyers (game/book stores) don't have an actual date at this point. But for some reason, it's almost March and they haven't deigned to share it with the rest of us.

I've looked for reviews that address this, but haven't found any. How does this edition compare to the previous edition? My assumption at present is that it is largely the same material (down to the same exact writing), and as such don't plan to get the book. I would love to hear that I'm wrong about that. Anyone have both who could offer a brief comparison?

That's a rather obscure spot for the average fan. It's not just there. It's also in a blog entry from December, and was shown on Facebook.

The cover image was released in December.

Stunningly illustrated book, brimming with Gloranthan goodness. Ideas per square inch ratio, as always with Austin's books, is very high.

It would actually start at 30% + 5% (for her POW), but that is a lot lower than 60%. Still seems the most likely. Or it's a +1 to a characteristic point and thus fairly invisible. Or they just forgot to give her one.
