    Ha! I've got Aces & Eights!

    Finally! GV gives us our first "why the hell wasn't it 1200 pages!" post. Sweet! Like Jolly says, all that stuff's on the 'list' for supplements, some on the front burners, some on the back. One thing you probably won't see much mention of: the cavalry. Since the US doesn't own all the...

    Ha! I've got Aces & Eights!

    Great, let us know what you think. I've been on record since January or something saying this is the nicest RPG product ever made. Curious how many agree/disagree.

    Ha! I've got Aces & Eights!

    I sure hope you mean literally and not figuratively.

    Ha! I've got Aces & Eights!

    I guess they don't want your money. Seems pretty dumb to me. Does he refuse to carry the industry's best-selling and longest-running professional games magazine as well (Knights of the Dinner Table)? :(

    Buzz on Aces and Eights?

    A Kalamar (d20) sourcebook (Svimohzia), a couple of Necromancer books, a bunch of KoDT: Bundles of Trouble, a HUGE HM adventure (Dead Gawd's Hand) and, of course, Aces & Eights. We'll be shipping this stuff out over the next several weeks/months. Dave

    Buzz on Aces and Eights?

    No, you don't need both. Showdown is a "lite" version with just some of the shoot-em-up rules and none of the RPG material. Unfortunately, no, we will not have any maps at GenCon. Those are only available on CafePress (I think).

    Buzz on Aces and Eights?

    Maybe after you see the actual book your enthusiasm will return. ;)

    Buzz on Aces and Eights?

    The books are on a truck headed for our warehouse right now. Should be here on the 29th or 30th. Then it goes to distributors, then retail outlets. So figure 10-21 days to be in stores (YMMV, obviously). We have another PDF preview available (as of yesterday, I think).

    HackMaster: The New Edition

    AT GTS, several retailers/distributors said "hey, this is the nicest Western RPG I've ever seen!" And I replied, "thanks, but I think you're wrong...name for me a nicer looking RPG from ANY genre, including leather bound special editions." Not one could think of a book that surpasses A&8...

    HackMaster: The New Edition

    Aces & Eights: Shattered Frontier = the nicest *RPG* book EVER made (and yes, that includes all the leather bound books done previous. yes, including WoTC's). I made such a boast repeatedly over 3 days at GTS (GAMA)...not one retailer or distributor disagreed. You heard it here first...

    Gama Trade Show

    And you know Johansson was just ITCHING to pistol whip some poor schlep. It was fun handingthe book to people and watching them try to hold it in one hand, then be forced to drop their other stuff to heft it. As far as new stuff, this year looked pretty bleak. I think most companies are...

    [KenzerCo] 11 years old today!

    First off, thank you everyone for the kind words. The 11 years sure went a lot faster than we ever thought. Hmmmn, reflections on the last 11 years... Well, for starters, I'm pretty surprised (and pleased) that we're still writing RPG stuff after all these years. I never would have guessed...

    Kalamar losing popularity?

    Hi all. Just popping in to clarify a few things regarding kalamar sales/popularity. 1) it's true that the latest Kalamar books are not for sale at Walmart.com. In fact, no Kenzer and Company product is for sale through Wall mart -- our CFO has a problem with their terms. 2) Loona Port of...

    3.5 DM Screen is aggravating

    The Kalamar screen has both. Since it has flaps and inner panels it can hold 4x the material of most DM screens (24 panels vs 6 or 8 -- factor-in artwork and the Kalamar screen ratio of useful info becomes even greater).

    [KoK] Free modules! (with shipping)

    Not really, no. Although fans do stop by sometimes. That being said, if you're in the right place at the right time, you can probably get in on one of our games/game days.

    3.5 DM Screen is aggravating

    It's awaiting approval right now...Woo-hoo!!

    [KoK] Free modules! (with shipping)

    Not far from the mark. Our lease is close to expiration and given our lousy landlord (see hints above re:ammo and Johnson) we figured we might be better off buying a place. New locatiuon will be in Waukegan, IL, just off Sheridan Rd. We have to build it out -- and it's taking longer than...

    KoDT fans out there?

    Hoody-Hoo!!!! Glad there's still a few KoDT fans around!! So, how do you like the "new" magazine format with d20, HM and other rpg material?

    Greyhawk Setting Ressurected? Sorta Kinda..

    Not quite Actually, Redgar, the female minotaur tries to abduct the human fighter with highest desireable attributes (strength and Cha IIRC). If the party is unable to rescue him, he will lose HONOR (not necessarily damage) when his fate is discovered. Characterizing it as "abducts player...

    Best Campaign Setting????

    Nightfall: I have a question. I have to admit that I have looked at the SL stuff, but never had a chance to read it in depth (been busy what with 3 girls under 5 and 13 employees that act under 5). But after seeing your sig so many times, I've become extremely intrgued with this setting you're...
