There's going to be an Elizabethan setting.

I seem to remember @Rick Meints telling us before that the Gloranthan Classics were all typeset in an old-school, pre-PDF manner. So there would probably be a lot of work to make it POD-ready, and given the small market since the RQ Classic PDFs were released, it simply wouldn't be worth it for Chaosium.

A reprint of the Glorantha Classics seems much less likely than making the RuneQuest Classics available in print, probably via POD.

I love the sound of this so I would press the buy button, but unfortunately my browser is complaining about the security certificate at chaosium.com. Anyone else seeing this? Doubly unfortunately, the usual way to bypass this and proceed anyway isn't working, because annoyingly my mobile provider has opted me into a trial of their website blocking and I can't easily opt out because I'm abroad at the moment. Edit - I worked around this by using a VPN, thus preventing my mobile provider from interfering.

What is your Lovecraft source for a specifically non-rare malevolent ghoul?

General conversion stuff for HQG to RGQ is of course universal, and this is great stuff about the Sartar Rising books. But am I missing something, or was the OP not asking about D101's Gloranthan Adventures 1, rather than about the Sartar Rising books? Just trying to see if anyone has actually run those in RQ, although I'm in danger of coming over like a pedantic idiot.

What klecser said. This is great stuff.

Yep, the bottom one is great. Please don't use the one with nails in its head.

The Harlem Unbound newsletter? I sure have. The lack of recent newsletters was the reason for my post. But it's great to hear that it's into layout now.

Not a big deal,but I'm puzzled by why you would suggest moving this to the HQ forum. Sure, it's about a HQ campaign book, but the questions are specifically Glorantha-related, and there are a lot more Glorantha folks (based on the traffic) hanging out here rather than the HQ forum.

Summoning @Ian Cooper

Anyone heard any news on this recently? After some promotion from Chaosium a while back, it all seems to have gone a bit quiet (but I might have missed something?). Hopefully it's still moving forward.

There's a big difference between creatures that Chaosium have gained permission to use from non-public-domain sources (like Lumley etc), and those that are available for community use because they're not from those non-public-domain sources. So Chaosium have a much bigger range of creatures that they can use and publish themselves, compared to those than can be used in community publications. Of course, at your own gaming table you can use whatever you like.

Non-trivial for me to attend from the UK but one day, one day I'll get to Necronomicon ...

It's from Petersen Games rather than Chaosium, so I tend to doubt it. But of course I'd welcome it if it happened.

The Keeper's Rulebook and Investigator Handbook don't use the same layout template/look at later books such as Pulp Cthulhu and Doors to Darkness. I'm not saying that it's a particularly big problem, but there is a difference.

Yes. Or around the table at a convention, or whereever.

Really? How about representation, diversity and inclusiveness in the players for your horror game? Isn't there a relationship between the two things?

Just a personal opinion, but I'm not getting comedic/goofy vibes from the cover art.

You're doing it right for sure, IMHO.

I love the fact that the guy in the middle appears to have been inspired by Jon Polito's character in The Big Lebowski.

Stonehenge is a lot better since they built a proper visitor's centre there, and moved the car park etc.

I can't help you with stats, and I realise this doesn't help you right now, but just in case you didn't already know - there is a 7e Dreamlands coming from Chaosium.

Thanks for the nudge. I've made some updates. However, the Quickstart in the post is the upcoming Glorantha Quickstart, not the existing RQ Quickstart.

@David Scott any additional comments? Not that I'm doubting the wise words so far, of course.
