Troll Lord is having a sale on its old modules and the Erde setting amterial. The price is very low, but those products that were reviewed here are marginal at best and a number of products were never reviewed. Anyone found use for products like Heart of Glass and Winter Runes? For $20.00 I'm...

I'm not a rules guy so my top books (post core) are: Midnight 2nd edition Living Greyhawk Gazeteer Fading Suns Scarred Lands Ghelspad Varangian

I agree with BWP on the best three books for setting material being Fury, Forge, and Under the Shadow. Of the more rules oriented books, Sorcery is my favorite as the crunch has a lot of built in setting information/flavor. With the new rules in M2E, Against the Shadow isn't necessary and I'd...

$50.00 is too rich for my blood. It'd be nice if you purchased directly from FFG if they gave you a discount on the pdf version. On the price of the print book, besides adding most of ATS to the book, FFG also added 40,000 words of new material, the size of one of their $14.95 supplements, so...

The stuff I will take with me to my grave is all the old Tekumel stuff, including the Deeds Ever Glorious and the Book of Ebon Binding. Next up is Greyhawk from the Ashes and the Birthright core books (not the individual nation books, which while not bad, don't match the inspiration of the core...

My favorite read is Deeds of the Ever Glorious, the legion book for Tekumel. Any of the non-rules stuff for tekumel is fun to read. Next in line is the Midnight books, then Fading Suns. For nostalgia purposes, the original Runequest and the Space Opera space atlases still get read from time...

The next product, Forge of Shadows (Steel Hill) is at the printers now and should be available in two weeks. I'm not sure about Under the Shadow (Baden's Bluff), but it should be out in January. Last I'd heard, the writing and editing were done. In 2005, there's going to be a revised core...

It sounds good, thanks for the quick response. I'm a little surprised there hasn't been a formal review of what I think is the first boxed set in years. Varangian

I haven't seen a review of the Midnight setting boxed set, Fury of Shadow. Has anyone picked it up? If so, any comments? Varangian
