Am I late to the show with Elmal once more presented as Yelmalio?  Was that part of the rollback to 2nd Edition or has the thinking progressed so far we have come full circle?  🙂

Don't mention the war!

The Southern Continent is overlooked again! That's just Genertelacentric chauvinism! 😉

And no one, repeat NO ONE, is to use the C-word.

Winston Churchill isn't noted for his tactical successes.  Elizabeth I couldn't fight a lick.

But they both had CHA 21 and Orate 110%. That counts for a lot.

I for one would be delighted to assist co-ordinate (or helm) a fan-created re-release of these three stories (well, the Coders and Arlaten) for no financial remuneration

Plot spoilers for Arlaten the Magus storyline:

This is Raveena the Mercenary - she might have been young, gorgeous, and wholesome back when she was a young woman who flocked to Starbrow's Rebellion in 1613, but since then, she has become hard, cynical, and ruthless.

Hope she doesn't want her dad's old job back. Apple Lane isn't a Solar theocracy, you don't get to be thane just because your dad had the gig.

It shows a young Helering “backboy” helping a Vingan thane get her armor on.

 

 

"Have you forgotten which strap goes with which buckle?"

"Sorry Mum."

Maybe they use it one-handed? It'd need some reach to hit a horse rider, let alone an Impala Rider or foot soldier. 🤔

Not a rules question, but I heard Jeff Richard mention the Xeno Gang and how Greg Stafford would be sure to have a couple of drinks before role-playing the gorilla, just to make sure his reactions were authentic.

Now, I know of the Xeno Gang, I'm sure I've seen them statted up, but I can't for the life of me recall where. Can anyone tell me where I can find the Gang? I'd love to set them on my players! 😆

UPDATE: Found them, but not where I expected - RQ3 monster book featured a vignette by Lisa Free of the Xeno Gang!

here's also an australian film called Ten Canoes, it's one of my favourite films because just watching feels like entering a myth realm. No magic, just cool story structure. It was floating on youtube for a while.

Middle of November, unfortunately. Covid shipping delays out of our control.

Watching closely!

With the Guide, we finally had access to the art resources we have wanted. I'd consider the art from the Guide on pretty definitive. 

I'm hoping for some of Andrey Fetisov's excellent adventurer illustrations to be rendered as 28mm figures, myself.

As far as I'm concerned, he's nailed the Bronze Age influences (both Mediterranean and Central European) perfectly, while adding some truly amazing Gloranthan colour to the mix.

Ave atque vale, Greg; Glorantha is the most enduring and iconic game setting out there, and will continue to be so. 

I've been visiting Glorantha for over 35 years now, but I am still delighted by the ability of your world to surprise and enthrall.

Your legacy is in good hands.

Do so, earliest. Trust me, no buyer's remorse here!

I think we've got ourselves a heroquest... If we can just beseech Mralot to let one of her children accompany us on the Honey Quest, we might be able to pull this off!

"Lord Jonat, hear our prayer! Our enemies are laying waste to our lands! Come forth with Crown and Sword and defend your Folk!'

(muffled voice from inside tomb) "Grrr... mmmph...  I'll be up soon... just five more years..."

"We have honey..."

(Tomb door flies open) "I'M UP!"

Works every time.

,,,At least for the moment. Things tend to get a little... fluid in the gender department when an Eurmali hero(ine) is involved.
