Thanks for the info! I bought the sourcebook last year, so... Will probably buy the pdf at some point in the future.

Agreed! I read it after it was suggested in this thread, from beginning to end. The art style is really good. Thanks Sir_Goodspeed for the suggestion!!

Yeha, I have the Glorantha Sourcebook, and was thinking on reading that first as it seems the best point of entry. But will check the webcomic for sure. Thanks!

It is Kallyr who became Prince of Sartar in 1625, not Argrath (yet). Although I get that the older starting point is an interesting and rich setting, the new one kind of appeals more to me right now, with a new scenario opening, the Empire repelled (for now), and lots of adventure sites, old battlefields, abandoned fortresses, etc... Plus the events of just a few years in the future. But again, not gonna play any time soon, so will settle for just reading the books and have a good time. Sounds like readying history and legend and I love that.

Well, as I said, I don't see myself doing any kind of game in a couple of years, so there is enough time for new books to come over to cover new events. And in any case I will stick to the 1625 as a starting point, as doing otherwise would mean even more research XD But I see your point. If in all these time I have time and opportunity, I will give those older books a look, and perhaps do something in those times when I got more used to the world itself.

Noted 🙂 As I said, I have only been able to browse the books, have to find time to read them thoroughly. Thanks for the information. Will give those a look to get and idea. Seems also that the new Mythology book will have some info too.

Thanks everyone for the answers! I didn't know there was something called the Hero Wars. Have seen that there is the concept of HeroQuest. Is it related? Is not that I have any plans on making any campaign with the game, as right now I am pretty busy with other things, but wanted to read the books and get to know better the world and such, as it looks pretty much like history and ancient mythology, and I love that. In a couple of years perhaps begin something. Also I just saw that the Mythology book is out. Going to have to get it, to add to the list of "to do".

Hi everyone. First post from a completely uneducated in Glorantha. My exposition to Runequest is based on having played once in high school, way back, where we played some ducks and the gamemaster essentially didn't explain anything to us. Runequest has been always some classic game that was there in the background, but nothing more. Then the new edition by Chaosium came and I got intrigued. After looking a little bit, I fell in love with it: History and Mythology in a Bronze Age setting? Yes please. So I bought every single book, more or less, which I have only been able to browse a little. Sorry for the introduction. The question is that I have seen that the rpg books set the date at 1625, but seems like there are older books that deal with years beyond that. So are those books a guide for what it is to come in the Chaosium line? Will the line go on a different direction? I saw there is a book called King of Sartar, which have information about years after 1625, and was thinking about getting it to have a good read and get glimpses of what is to come.
