  1. Well, I picked it up, and it's lovely. While I'm waiting for the POD to deliver, I've been scanning the PDF. I flipped to the 7th Ed rules chapter, and noticed under QUICK DRAW, "Characters with unready weapons use DEX or DEX for the Order of Attack." Is that a typo?
  2. I should have realized that. My brain has been in a fog since my daughter was born last year, my apologies.
  3. He flashes it up on the screen at the 3:04 mark in his review of "The Auction," and his patter informed me that it had a section on International firearm laws, which I didn't realize and sells me on it. What is IW1?
  4. I was intrigued when I saw Seth Skorkowsky pitch this in a video; I didn't realize you had 3 volumes, including Gaslight era! I'd be interested in picking up all three in softcover -- is there any chance of a sale in the near future on print copies?
  5. I mean, I'm pretty sure they're 7E, and I've already ordered them (it's a classic scenario!), but I thought I'd ask.
  6. Just for my own clarity, this is the 7th edition version of the scenario? I still cherish my original box set, but I wouldn't mind upgrading to the latest and greatest!
  7. The only English-language ones I'm aware of are The Arkham Gazette and Bayt al Azif, both of which are excellent.
  8. There was an adventure "La Dama Misteriosa" in the magazine Nivel 9 #10, written by Ricardo Dorda. I wonder if it's the same one? Awesome! I'll have to check it out.
  9. I agree. It's not a bad idea to start an adventure, the message from your father, but the way it was used isn't great. Magical adventures have their place, but this isn't a great example of one.
  10. That's not necessary, I think! I appreciate the information, and have already downloaded the products.
  11. I'm not sure if I want to start a tab for this kind of thing -- that would be an enormous list! I have a day job! 😀
  12. Against my better judgement, I've picked up Valkyrie issues 9, 10, and 11. (9 is still in-transit.) The shipping on these is incredible, from 3x to 7x the cost of the magazine. I guess that's what I get for living in the US! I've gotten 10 and 11, and "Spear of Wyrds" is a 2-part campaign outline for Pendragon, heavily dependent on the Saxon character generation system in issue 9. It looks like it's very different from what was eventually published in Saxons! and I'm curious to see it. I'll save a review of the scenario for when I have the character generation system in my hands.
  13. Found an article called "Les Tournois de Chevalerie" ("Chivalry Tournaments") in issue 18 of the French magazine Graal. Mostly system neutral, it does include a system on the last two pages for jousts, that is supposed to be modular enough to add to any system.
  14. Bíborhold and Holdtölte are the same periodical, which underwent a name change after issue #25. The files have been uploaded to the files section of the lfg.hu forums here: https://lfg.hu/forum/files/category/9-magazinok/page/3/ In addition, Alanori Krónika, another gaming magazine from the 80s-90s has been uploaded to the publisher's website here: https://www.beholder.hu/?m=ak&in=ak_archivum.php
