Our friendly successors of Necromancers Games, FROG GOD GAMES, are releasing Tome of Horrors Complete Edition.
As I have hunted high and low for more information, I happened on product release thread at Paizo forums with Bill Webb, Greg Vaughan and the Pale (Chuck Wright, the layout person for Frog God Games) answering questions of anxious fans.
New link: Announcement thread at Necromancer Games forum.
Two items of special interest:
Bill Webb on release specifics:
"Pre-orders will be taken as soon as this bad boy is in layout (figure May or so?). This will be done so that you can ensure that you get a first print (I expect a sell out, quite frankly). Bear in mind that 500 of these is going to cost me $15-20k in print costs, so I cannot print more until the first batch are sold. Without a pre-order, it could take a while to get one if they all sell out."
Pale on the content:
"Oh, and here's a list of the 735 entries culled from the indeces of the 3 Tomes of Horror." (follow the link to read the list)
Additionally:
- there will be two books, one for S&W, the other for Pathfinder
- there will be accompanying PDFs
- the S&W version may be somewhat smaller
- Universal Monster Format will be followed through, however Universal Monster Rules are not going to be reprinted
- the monsters (Pathfinder version) will come in the ratio of a single monster per single page, two monsters per page or one monster per two pages (depends on monsters)

Ruemere
