Agentorange Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) Seriously people, I have to pay bills and buy food etc. I can't live on rice, beans, windfalls and roadkill every month it's just not healthy 😄 Joking aside what great range of stuff there is. I allow myself a certain amount of geek money each month and each month I find myself agonising between a variety of intriguing products - from the big boys.... Book Of Doom, Nochet etc down to the little guys.... Petty Spirits, Denarious the Minter etc There's something for all tastes and budgets, long may it continue...

Minlister Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Curiosity killed the geek cat! It is a two-fold scenario: first an investigation about a missing party of Lunar, and then a Heroquest, the JC presentation will be something long these lines A missing party of Ontori priests… A dwarf’s cap full of grave goods… A stead besieged by shrieking horrors… Delve into the forgotten lore of Raibanth’s gold tablets! Face the God of Hate! Challenge the Thunderous! Untangle the mythic skein of a God Learner-corrupted Heroquest! And forge a new weapon to stand your ground in the impending Hero Wars! This book offers a two-fold scenario leading the players from Dangerford to the Godtime. Although the default setting is 1613-1624, it can be easily adapted to a post-Dragonrise timeframe, offering the PCs the opportunity to play a key-role in Kallyr Starbrow’s victory at the Battle of Dangerford. The book is 35.000 words/63 pages long and uses the WASP system for stating NPCs devised in A Vale Ablaze. The system is also given here in Appendix, together with 27 templates for common NPCs, foes, and allies alike. NOTE: Material in this book deals with mature themes. GMs are advised to adjust their presentation of this subject matter in accordance with their own and their group’s comfort levels. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenMcG Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 I am looking aghast at what I have been falling behind on. Now I see that there are three cults books with another 7 to come, all about £30. I aso note that there are also three Ian Thompson books, also with another 7 to come, all about £15 for the PDFs. And the flood of other things that I cannot even begin to contemplate before buying these two priority items... ...and my wife still thinks that I am hard to buy for... 😏 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard S. Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Nice to see that the IG has been added to the cults series rather than waiting for the western sourcebook.

For the hard working GM one needs the traditional enemies books. Whereas this GM would prefer: Mythology, Solar, Shaman and then Lunar. For my game in Sartar in 1614 with a Taraling Elmali wanting arguments to boost his dying cult, an Earth Witch shaman, and a group with a desire to know their occupying enemy. I can fudge the other enemies for now given that we have the Bestiary. Every GM is going to be different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the hard working GM one needs the traditional enemies books. Lunar has *GOT* to be near the top, however: the Lunars are both "traditional enemies" (of Sartar/Orlanthi) and a very-popular PC option in Lunar-centric campaigns. But for my own preferences, I'd like to see the Shamanic material sooner than later.

I *suspect* that: (a) there's a fair amount of work already into it, that was put-aside to concentrate on the initial releases; that what remains is more organization/editing/filling-in-details, rather than voluminous writing (b) the IG book won't really "wait" for the Western Sourcebook; rather, the WS will get worked-on in parallel to CoR:IG, and they'll be released close-together or even as a simultaneous-release (like Earth Goddesses + Lightbringers were). (c) there will be a similar (close-together or simultaneous) treatment for Darkness + Trollpack Edited August 22, 2023 by g33k (wanted more parens) Quote C'es ne pas un .sig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff has shared a fair bit on FB regarding Malkionism, so likely a fair bit of content already developed. Would not speculate though on what remains. However, I don't recall seeing any indication of a Western sourcebook any time recently (certainly nothing in the upcoming publications list).

What I can say is that this will be the biggest (and last) version of Glorantha that I ever buy. By the time I am finished I will never be able to play the content I currently have...not enough game hours left before I hit the Great Game Table in the sky. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
