    Is it possible for us to at least get the official price tag of the slipcase set as well as what the primary 3 book coupon will look like? I want to pickup some of the classic PDFs on sale but I want to know how much I should be expecting to drop on the physical books before I do.

    SRP for the slipcase has been known since 1st of October. Juste a quick search on a search engine leads for example to:
    https://acddistribution.blogspot.com/2018/10/new-runequest-roleplaying-in-glorantha.html
    And for coupons value, easy to guess: just add what you paid for pdfs or divide RSP by half if you bought all 3.
    Anyway, it's cheap for the content!

    Site has not been updated in a while. So ignore the TT part.
    I just sent an email directly asking for what was available (#3 & #4 at the time) and I eventually got them shipped from Finland.

    Miskatonic Monday - the madness extends to other languages

    However, we are now happy to announce that the Miskatonic Repository is now open to Call of Cthulhu submissions in any language! 

    We will update the Content Guidelines to reflect this shortly, but no need to delay if you have something you'd like to share. Please note all the other terms and conditions remain the same. 

    I'm afraid Content Guidelines have not been updated yet with foreign language rules...

    typo correction

    I guess we now really need the launch of the Glorantha equivalent of the Miskatonic Repository on DriveThruRPG as:
    . Royalties to Chaosium are automatically managed
    . Print On Demand option has been recently activated

    Karse and Refuge

    in Glorantha

    Posted

    For Refuge, I'm not sure a lot was shared outside:
    Rankan Empire = Lunars
    Beysibs = Waertagi

    Old french magazine Tatou #4 proposed a non canonical Refuge brithini controlled version (by Guillaume Fournier), where town was created by Eurmal and Labyrinth was a Desorder & Illusion magic place. I will try to dig it for further details. Map was also by Guillaume:

    And I remember that Joerg wrote a piece expending Karse heortling roots on his old site

    Are Lunars God Learners?

    in Glorantha

    Posted

    Frankly, just read the texts on the blog and after that, it is not really hard to guess who was the mysterious "lawspeaker" who wrote most of it 🙂 !
    And fan policy on Chaosium site indicates people are not authorized to modify tumblr pictures by the way...
     

    Are Lunars God Learners?

    > What was runesight? How did the God Learners attain it? Why does no one possess it any more?

    The RuneQuest Sight was the name for the magical methods of observation the God Learners used to study the world. They could see the underlying patterns and structures of the world, which they formalised into the Runes. The RuneQuest Sight allowed them to make great discoveries about the nature of the Otherworlds, the interconnectedness of mythology and the mechanics of Heroquesting.

    They developed the RuneQuest Sight through their unconventional and haphazard approach to Heroquesting. The nature of Malkionism and the Invisible God means that there aren’t really any Malkioni myths, so they had never really Heroquested before the Second Age. When the God Learner Collective was first formed, they weren’t travelling to any Malkioni myths but to the myths of the barbarian cultures they reviled. They didn’t recognise the srvuali as gods, and they didn’t understand the significance of the myths, so they were fairly ruthless and clinical about the whole thing.

    This at first went really badly for them, as they blundered into Heroquests and were forcefully ejected when they failed to take on any of the roles. It was even worse when they tried to kill their way through the myths with battle magic, an approach that saw them slaughtered by the demigod guardians of the gods. But they kept trying, building off of small successes, until they were able to develop powers like the RuneQuest Sight. Eventually, they had surpassed even Arkat in their talent for Heroquesting.

    The reason no one knows the secrets of the God Learners today is because of the Gift Carriers of the Sending Gods. When the Middle Sea Empire collapsed and the Otherworlds suddenly reverted back to the way they were before the God Learners started messing with them, the Gift Carriers entered Glorantha and killed everyone who knew the RuneQuest Sight. They were so thorough that there is no one alive today who knows the Sight.
