Oops. But noncanonical? Surely not! OTOH there do seem to be several living South American marsupials.

Surely everyone remembers the illustration of the Praxian Kangaroo Tribe in Tales of the Reaching Moon issue 1. They must be giant kangaroos, as the tribesman is shown riding in a the kangaroo’s pouch.

I just noticed that in Investigators Weapons vol.2 the .357 Magnum is listed as causing 1d8+1d6 damage as opposed to the CoC rules where it is listed as causing 1d8+1d4 damage. Was this a deliberate change, or a mistake?

If she should ever appear in my Glorantha, Yolanela the Taloned Countess will be based on Carol Burnett’s portrayal of Nora Desmond. She is suspected (pretty much known, actually) to have killed several husbands, not just one, as well as many chance passersby. P.S. She is always accompanied by her bald manservant, Maximus, of course.

Off the top of my head: The Seleric Wars. A decades long campaign against the nearest Glorantha has ever come to Dark Lord. The founding of the Kingdom of Sartar.

Will this be done with the other volumes in the series?

It doesn’t seem to be on Drivethru even as a PDF. Does anyone know why? Oddly, it is available from Steve Jackson Games, despite not being for GURPS.

I’m cringing again. I can understand the leaving out the others, as they are just minor modifications of other Runes, but Law and Communication seem pretty important. Does anyone know why they were dropped.

I cringed a bit on discovering the Trade Rune's removal from RQG, and I'm hoping that Questworld's Glorantha will not follow suit.

Did they? I don’t remember this. Do you have a citation?

Of course you could then just wait until Chaosium runs out of them then re-sell on eBay or some other venue and likely recoup most of your loss, or even make a small profit.

There’s one on EBay Uk, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325375561820?hash=item4bc1e5105c:g:ynkAAOSwOcli0u2h&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAsDQ1oLsA1PqfupRjiEIGv4RIHjrD%2BQqYI2VCZj2YuJHzvDGKUR8%2BMlKAKj3SUp5qH%2BQlyDLjVXVezPOxM3Yh94i1tMVHv8FONwEPt59Fix97p6jJGN0IGJOjwDmm5hBr8%2B%2F2%2FHLDr%2FDuZxA1t2EcB6%2FnLmmmIrvxDxU5jCYVzqq3nM0QEDFRl5F5vPyfNlPE8tEpEp8MNudmSX3x5AQGbZ2qyu5KRMlwimo0CsJD7Pjx|tkp%3ABk9SR86vzJaDYQ I also recall that it was on Chaosium fro the UK warehouse a couple of months ago, so you might keep an eye out there.

In case anyone is interested Chaosium currently has the big gold book softcover available from the US warehouse. https://www.chaosium.com/basic-roleplaying-softcover/

Best Siver Seller has been achieved. Congratulations.

Is that from the RQ3 Dorastor book? If so, I’ll have to check my copy.

I was hoping for RQ stats for the rainbow snake variety described in Anaxial’s Roster. Actually, my longer term goal is to create a Chaos cult and deity centered on these critters.

I realize that they’re a gimmick, but heck, if we can have Pulp Cthulhu, we can have pulp Glorantha!

Are the stats for Chaos Snakes given anywhere in the new rules?

Your player characters caused it, of course. Obvious, really.

I’m trying to figure out whether or not that was a typo.🙂

Delays are near universal in this industry. Don’t give up hope.

Well, it’s not actually out yet.

Agreed that a pistol is what you use if you can't use a longarm of some sort. I do wonder if the CoC damages accurately reflect real-world effects, As a Keeper I'd probably take a page from Trail of Cthulhu and divide pistols into small, medium and large without trying to model each individual caliber.

Agreed, and the subject of a previous thread. Simplifying Gloranthan Magic.

Ask a question about a high-capacity semi-automatic pistol and get replies about shotguns, grenade launchers and nuclear weapons. Talk about escalation!
