    So, RoL is out in the wild, and I just read that Mythic Island is in the final stages of proof-reading ... that leaves LotMS as the new Chaosium RPG with too little news about it. Will it be ready soon? I really like what Lynne Hardy&Co did withh BRP in RoL, and I understand that people are desperately waiting for Mythic Iceland, but LotMS is the one that I really want most, both because I suspect that it will be very close to my ideal BRP crunch level and because I want that setting.

    I am eager to get my hands on LotMS also. Looks so much fun!

    How deeds of Argarth ultimately changed the world? It is said that Glorantha became, essentially, Earth. No gods, no magic, no nonhumans, no living myths. 

    You also could have said that in ONE word: 
    Boring

    I'am approaching Runequest and Glorantha, but I discovered only some days ago that the Dungeon Master's Guide to Glorantha has not been published up to now, since all the mythology stuff has been given precedence.

    So, since I am a huge fan of Pendragon System, and there I am resigned to have to wait some more time, I was wondering if getting the Universal Game Engine could help me in both role-playing systems, since I'd like to run a campaign with them as soon as possible.

    Welcome to the RuneQuest tribe!

    I am sure the upcoming GM book will have a lot of useful stuff in it (especially the stuff on Heroquesting is avaited eagerly by a lot of people)and will give addtional help for GMs to write and run adventures, but is in no way required et all to start gamemastering for your group. 

    I am not sure if BRP UGE will fill the "gap" you think the unpublished RQ GM book leaves to wish for, but i still would recommend to buy BRP UGE (and the Mythras PRG book) for alternative rules and different approaches on a lot of rules (and all in the D100 family). 
    If you don´t like a certain rule in RQG: Have a look into BRP UGE and/or MYTHRAS how they handle the same detail. Cut and paste in between these rule systems as you like.

    Interesting how Lhankor Mhy appears in two distinct genealogies with different parents: Yelm and Dendara; and Acos and Orenoar.

    First one being Buserian, the socond the Lightbringer Lhankor Mhy. 
    But the Godlearners tell us it is the same deity.

    I was listening to the latest God Learners podcast with Jeff and I was intrigued by the discussion about the various issues surrounding the names of the deities in Glorantha. Jeff made mention to some Meso-American traditions with gods having multiple names but I always thought that this was a result of our experience with deities being not real. Would a deity, an actual physical presence with a personality, want to be known by more than one name?

    Would the Gloranthan version of Heracles want someone to refer to him as Nio?

    We can do it on earth because there is no actual deity going to pass judgement on us for misnaming them. Would that be that actual case in Glorantha?

    Other than Eurmal who might think it was funny to appear to people as a totally different deity. 🙂 

    Zeus/Jupiter: The same god or two different gods?

    Odin/Wotan: The same god or two different gods?

    Zeus/Jupiter and Odin/Wotan also have a lot in common: Same deity or two/for different gods?

    If the name of a god is pronounced dirfferent in another language, does that count as a different name?

    What if the name of a god you worship has a different meaning in another language? Wouldn´t it be okay to have a different name in that other country?
     

    You are Zac, other people might call you son or dad. Do you choose only to answer to one of them?


    A lot of real world human cultures have different names for the same deity. Some of them were actually titles, but in the understanding of their worshippers that became their names. 

    I find it totally acceptable to have multiple names for one glorantha deity. I actually prefer using local name variants in some of my games.

    While I am happy to see you all discuss which products you want reprinted, please understand that we already pretty much have that figured out. I include the above snippet of Andre's list because those are definitely on our "want to reprint" list (please don't ask for the status). 

    And THAT is an answer a potential helper with scanning, OCRing, etc. can work with. 

    Thank you very much for the clarification, Rick!

    Erzähl mir mehr über die 4 Abenteuer, bitte! 🙏😀  Wurden diese anderswo schon veröffentlicht oder sind sie alle ganz neu?
    Wird man in der Zukunft diese 4 Abenteuer allein kaufen können?

    Veni-Vidi-Vici erschien als PDF-only Abenteuer-Sammlung für Alephtars BRP ROME. 
    Ich habe das okay von den drei Autoren der vier Abenteuer ihre Abenteuer für MYTHRAS konvertieren zu dürfen. Wir werden Darios Illustrationen wiederverwenden und Dario wird alle Nicht-Dario-Illustrationen aus dem PDF für uns neu zeichnen. 

    Hier mehr zum Original-PDF:

    The map that Metcalph posted literally has 'DAWN AGE' in big letters on the central circle.

     

    Yes, but the year given near MELIB on that map in 1586 ST

    I wish I could crawl into that picture and buy the books right now...

    I am feeling with you.

    If i had a pal bringing the two new books back from GenCon he would be back in europe on monday earliest. He chould ship the books to me on tuesday. Depending on where this pal is located shipping would take in between 2 and 10 days. So the earliest i could get my hands on these two new books would be August 10th to 18th. 
    But i am on vacation from 12th to 20th. 
    If i order it from my vacation location online directly from Chaosium on August 17th (official release day) the good people at Black Monk will ship them so that the package will reach me in about 5 days. That is Tuesday August 22th. And by then i am back from vacation and will have the time to enjoy my read. 🙂
