[KenzerCo] KoDT #100 hitting stores now!

Yep, the 144 page issue #100 of the Knights of the Dinner Table magazine is hitting stores now (or maybe next week depending on your area).

I'm posting the Table of Contents below, organized by type/features. Also, the front and back covers.

Items in [brackets] are brief notes I've added for certain columns. Unless otherwise noted, all rpg columns are generic enough to be used for any fantasy game system. "HM" indicates a HackMaster-specific feature, while "d20" indicates an obviously d20-specific feature.

What a cool promo pic for aces & 8s, too. It jumped off the back page of iss. #99 at me with it's very Remington qualities. Where can more info. on it be found?

We're going to be showing a preview and demos at GAMA (and we've been running demos for the last several months). In the meantime, you can follow the discussion on our A&8 forums at: http://www.kenzerco.com/forums/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=Aces

Thanks, Mark. I checked out the forums. I also looked at the release schedule. Is GreyHack what I think it is? An old school GreyHawk? Also, what's up with HackRight? If it's a rebirth of BirthRight, then I may have to give HackMaster another (more serious) look.

If I remember right, HackRight was cancelled or at least delayed, but since I'm not working on that, I could be mistaken. It hasn't been on the release schedule for a while.

Here's the solicitation text for Greyhack.

Greyhack
Once a proud land on a distant sphere, the continent of Oerik now lies in shattered ruins, magically ripped from Oerth’s embrace and transported to a remote corner of the planet Aldrazar! Now, famine, plague and pestilence grip this ruined land, while sinister creatures exploit its people and lend power to wicked souls in return for worship. With beautiful full-color maps, details on nations, cultures, monsters, deities, and challenges for characters of all levels, this comprehensive sourcebook contains everything you need to get started in a Greyhack campaign!
K&C2128 (128-144 pages est., color cover, maps) $27.99 est.

The description of Greyhack sounds cool. I'll keep a look out for it.

Sorry to hear about Hackright. I hope it's just delayed and not cancelled.

Checked my FLGS for KODT #100 today--no dice!

Congrats to Mark and the rest of the gang on number 100!

You know, when I first saw this a day or two ago I didn't give it a second thought. Then my Kenzer special arrived today. In it were a bunch of KotDT comics. I, for the heck of it, started browsing through one that i picked up at random from the pile. An unknown time later I put it down and picked up the next one.

Now I want to buy issue 100. You got yourselves a new fan. I never realized how much more than just the Knights are in your comic/magazine! Very enjoyable reading!

I also looked through the Hackmaster stuff you sent me. I am taking a serious liking to that stuff too. I loved the last will and testament on the back of the character folio's. The warning to players who read the modules had me chuckling and outright laughing when I read the note: If you send a sincere apology and $25.00 along with proof....

Good stuff! Even though you sent me a german version of the Kalamar Camapign setting I am glad a tried this grab bag special out! Especially since you sent me the English version as well.

Thanks! I had a lot of fun today!

As Bob Herzog (KoDT character) would say - HOODY HOO!

I'm really glad you're happy with your Grab Bag goodies (the foreign language edition was an extra bonus), and especially that you've discovered the magic that is KoDT.

Feel free to post any Kalamar or HackMaster questions you have here on the ENWorld general talk board. Also, you should check out our own discussion forums. I think that both the KenzerCo forums and the ENWorld boards have the best, most polite members of any other rpg board on the web.
