We honoured Greg at today's RuneQuest game:

Hey, I'm also running a campaign there (and in the valley in general). I'd be very interested in your stories of which scenarios especifically did you convert to Glorantha. and why they were so cool.

Hi, here's my review of Odd Soot: https://elruneblog.blogspot.com/2018/10/odd-soot-science-fiction-mystery-in.html Long story short: very cool!

I think I remember the tunnels were to the northern edge of the village, dug at ground level into the hill, perhaps only about 8 m long.

OK, Spain, for example. :-)

Question about shipping to Europe: When ordering the Classic Fantasy book by The Design Mechanism from UK-based Aeon Games, the shipping costs are 2 sterling pounds. When ordering the RuneQuest Glorantha book by Chaosium from their UK-based storehouse, the shipping costs are 19 euros. Why is there such a difference in shipping costs?

My advice is: ignore Pavis as a sorcery cult and keep it as a deity.

BTW: I'm looking forward to reading this chapter! Please include plenty of examples and suggestions.

The Everyone Needs to Shine Principle: Do your best to incorporate into the scenario a moment for every PC to feel special and important, particularly by letting that PC do what she does best orby having him/her be the center of attention in a given scene. The best skills of the PCs should give you a hint of what his/her player is expecting to be able to do during a game, so let them do it!

Me too! After playing some HeroQuest games in Glorantha, some friends and I agreed that this would be a good system to play in the Sixth World of Shadowrun. No more bogged down combats: more action and more story! I hope Godsmonkey will share with us how his first game went!

I like it so far. But why did his brothers leave? I think some of them must return sooner or later...

Here's the review I wrote about The Glorantha Sourcebook. I hope you like it: Review of The Glorantha Sourcebook I've also added a list of topics that surprised me while reading it. Please feel free to correct me if you spot any inaccuracies.

OK, I've found this and it seems to prove that tiled roof houses existed even during the early Bronze Age. Great! I asked about this because I showed the map of the Tin Inn to a friend and he commented how he had imagined the Bronze Age houses to look more like thatched roof low houses or like the flat roofed houses (as in New Pavis). Perhaps this is a general misconception. Now that I think of it, the map of New Pavis in River of Cradles also included some tiled-roof houses.

The houses you see in the map of the Tin Inn: Are they based on Mediterranean Iron Age houses?

You probably mean these two incredible charts:
