Very good news all around! I am also looking forward to the "Living Traveller Game!" Plus I hope, no pray, that my finances can keep up with your Traveller and Runequest production!

It is the spirit of the game, not the letter of the rules, which is important. NEVER hold to the letter written, nor allow some barracks room lawyer to force quotations from the rule book upon you, IF it goes against the obvious intent of the game. As you hew the line with respect to conformity to major systems and uniformity of play in general, also be certain the game is mastered by you and not by your players. Within the broad parameters give in the Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Volumes, YOU are creator and final arbiter. By ordering things as they should be, the game as a WHOLE first, your CAMPAIGN next, and your participants thereafter, you will be playing Advanced Dungeons and Dragons as it was meant to be. May you find as much pleasure in so doing as the rest of us do.

It's very encouraging to see such a long term plan for Traveller. I'm also anxious to see the new Runequest stuff.

WOTC has said that sales of 4e is very strong based from my knowledge on Living Forgotten Realms RPGA play numbers. I wonder if anyone knows of any sites that track RPG sales?

I know a few of my friends weren't happy about 4e and aren't playing it. I guess Matt's words are reflective of mediocre sales figures overall, which is surprising to me. GenCon was packed in the RPGA room for 4e.
