I cannot provide more details, but a major goal has been to re-establish goodwill with the Moorcocks. 

 

I think you should hurry. Moorcock and also his fans are not young ones and the audience for Stormbringer is slowly fading away like dust in the wind. And with newer systems in the RPG-World the chance for release of the old stormbringer is becoming only a wish of few survivers, I'm afraid

It was written as a filler when I got writer's block for something else. also, it had to be a certain size to fit in with Mongoose's structure.

I do like Mythras, but hate having to ask for permission to write something. I fully understand why TDM has a license agreement but I find that writing stuff without having to check whether I can publish it suits me better. Also, I prefer the Legend ruleset to Mythras, but not by much.

That is a shame.

I had no control over the graphics, unfortunately.

As to open questions, that is how I tend to GM anyway, so that is probably my style.

I have been thinking of redoing it. My intention was to always add the Mammoth Steppe and explore the Red Men more.

My experience with sourcing artwork for Jonstown Compendium might mean I could do my own layout and graphics. However, it would not just be a rewrite, it would need tearing apart and redoing from scratch.

After your very complete and long answer - thank you for it - I owe you an answer. I think you should rework it and maybe - give it several solutions to play. Pure Iceage (how it could happened), a alternative reality way and a pure fantasy way. This brings more people to this fantastic period. I think Dreamlands was an opener for a bigger audience to Cthulhu, because all these tied content to the real world was expanded with the power of dreams and fantasy. The severals kind of ways in the dreamlands were also a great thing. I bought this small game "polyomythic" from Osprey Publishing. Great idea, very poor system (I tried the fightings rules and the results were terrible and boring) and a fantastic world. A lot of great ideas. Your book is great, but I missed the last steps of the race. But this is my personal feeling. I can't say anything about the License agreements of TDM, but I think as a small company they look for good supplements. And an expanded Iceage-Book is great, I think

Oh, I forgot to say that it is on their website sold

Unfortunately true about the Stone Age roleplaying (I bought Land of Ice and Stone, BTW). There are interesting rpg settings, and there are the ones your players will agree to play in..

I think it would work with Mythras and more background. I bought it and was a bit dissapointed. Poor graphic and a lot of open questions. With a bit more content and information it would work

Any news on a PDF for this? I see a Kindle edition on Amazon, but I'd prefer a PDF before I shell out $50+ Canadian for a hard copy.

Cheers!

I think you have to wait until the book is released. Osprey will start to sell the pdf-version, when the book is released. Maybe a few days later.

It is a shame, that the licence is given to an unknown company without a English release. Only french. Michael Moorcock had these love for France. Hope to see a new version in the Mongoose tradition. This was a very good work.

Is this companion somewhere as pdf sold?

R.I.P. Greg Stafford. You and your games teached me how to game. Thank you. Hope you come save over to Glorantha

Ok, after the anger of waiting I bought it today and must say, that the new Chaosium makes very shiny stuff. The PDF is great and is the best Runequest in Glorantha. So Mythras for historical stuff and Runequest for Glorantha. Thumb up for this! (Andshame for my anger)

This is right, so I stay at Mythras....

Chaosium is not a reliable company when you see their realeres. I always waited for new material for Cthulhu. In the moment I am in the comfortable situation, that I am german and Pegasus is releases constant and good. But the audience for Runequest is to small and will become smaller, when the release is not coming in the near future I‘m afraid. Promises without releases is not helping a small product like Runequest glorantha.

In the moment I feel very bored about the politics of Chaosium. Old men try to be interesting. Not giving arelease date and try to make it mystic is not verygood for Runequest. The teaser game is uncomplete and not really usable. Why this?

A german version is very good and solid in winter. Maybe you had it, if it was nearly impossible to find in sleep that night... I know it, I'm from germany

I play it since the '80. I'm happy with the actual version. I think I do not need an update. I need more sorcebooks and even scenariios/campaigns as a product of too less time

I'm using macs. I hope that 10.9 will bring more battery-time. I don't think it was a very exciting WWDC, but it wasn't also a bad wwdc.

Any release dates???

Releasedate? Pdf avaible?
