Thanks for recording this @Loz and making it public, it's been interesting seeing some faces of the team and getting to know all that's in store. I have published a post about news of all the D100 games I love since April, that of course includes a section about The Design Mechanism. It's in Spanish but I hope the Google translator can give you a pretty good gist of it (I've tried and it does!). So if I have missed something, you can tell me and I'll add it ASAP. https://elruneblog.blogspot.com/2020/07/noticias-de-runequest-mythras-cthulhu-y.html 👈😺 For example, I'm not sure if I've caught the title of a certain future publication using the Mythras Gateway License you mention almost at the end. Is it "Red Daggers"?

What do the crossed "M"s mean? And why was the map drawn with east side on the bottom?

Hi @Gman, You can have a look at the table of contents of The Glorantha Sourcebook 👈😋 Follow the link!

Cool! 😍👍 So will this one be published after the Starter Set and the Gods of Glorantha? Or before the Gods of Glorantha?

I think this is no solid argument, because a light mace requires only STR 7 to use, so it was not made for strong people. Also, sticks, stones and fists were not made for strong people, but they are crushing weapons anyway.

Clint Staples blogged a lot about his campaign in and around the Clanking City. His posts may contain useful information. Just two examples: https://d-infinity.net/game-content/runequest-thursday-84-preparations-clanking-ruin https://d-infinity.net/game-content/runequest-thursday-two-new-weapons-clanking-ruin

Hi, Seasparrow, Even though you have stated that you don't mind searching for long out-of-print publications to start your campaign, I would recommend making your life easier by following these advice. 👈🙂

Sí, espero que Edge haga un buen trabajo de traducción y que publique poco después el resto de libros. Además de su foro, también existe la lista de correo Glorantha Hispana.

I'm sorry for Jeff, but Poskuturri's bust is scary... 😨

If they do like in HQ, I guess it could work by levels of power, each level giving you more powerful rewards for success and worse consequences in case of failure. So if you are an initiate, the adversaries will be adjusted to your power level (just as your GM usually does! 😋). The same goes if you are a runelord/lady, but the rewards/consequences will be correspondingly higher. Some rewards might only be attainable/recommended for heroes above rune level. Great support from your community might help in being prepared for a rune level quest/reward when you are only an initiate.

About your second topic, the life-sharing magic sounds cool. Maybe you can find more info here.

Yes, Edge Entertainment is supposedly going to publish it in the 3rd quarter of 2020 (which means one of these days now), according to the last news they shared.

OK, so who is the unicorn-headed guy, then?

I hope you will tell us about your adventurers' exploits here! 🙂 BTW, I would have treated a special attack with a scorpion sting as an impale that does not get stuck. The poison is enough for the poor victim. xD

That's really nice. Where did you get the maps from?

Hi Realmprotector, Here's my summary of how to get started. 👈🙂

Hi Gman, I wrote a post about How to get started in Glorantha that may be helpful. 🙂 I think Glorantha can perfectly be Sword & Sorcery. That's how I played it when I started!

Shannon Applecline's book Elfs: A Guide to the Aldryami is probably the book you are looking for. Although it was written during the Mongoose RuneQuest era, it is perfectly usable still. https://index.rpg.net/display-entry.phtml?mainid=8710

A Ty Kora Tek follower? Interesting.

Oooh, nice! How many Saturdays do you think it will take to play through the whole campaign? Who is going to be the GM?

You can decide to not feel overwhelmed by "all that needs to happen" or "all the authenticity that I need to infuse in my campaign". The authentic Glorantha will be whatever happens during your games. So for example, you can read The Glorantha Sourcebook and just use whatever ideas you find cool for your games. If the text says that something big happens in 1626 but your campaign isn't ready for it yet, then just delay it to next year. That's what I do, anyway.

I love the Morokanth and other art you can see on the preview. I will definitely purchase this one. 🙂

He's a hero-level munchkin.

(I hope I'm not derailing the OP too much with this. ). My initial plan was to have the characters help the Lhankor Mhy priest through the quest to regain their lost memories with a "this world" heroquest, which would then take them serendipitously to the Dyskund Caverns as "the Underworld" part of the quest. OK, but isn't the annual LBQ done at the Orlanth/Lightbringer temples much less risky than usual? Since that sort of heroquest focuses on the community,'s wellbeing for the next year, I doubt that any priests would be OK with jeopardizing it by including some adventurers' special needs in it?

Yeah, I know, but... 🤔 What myth would you choose to play provided... 1) Your PCs are: 1 Orlanthi, 1 Vingan, 1 Humakti, 1 Lodrili, 1 Daka Fali and an Aldryami? and 2) The lost knowledge was stolen by Thanatari cultists after sucking the memories of 3 of the PCs. ?
