    NEW D&D Player's Guide info!

    I've posted some more info re: using this book with other D&D and homebrew settings in the d20 publishers folder. The release date is still set for April. Since it's a HC it'll take a few weeks to get back from the printer and 1-4 weeks (depending on your store's ordering habits) to get into...

    Wizards of the Coast LAYOFFS

    Sadness befalls Well, this is indeed a sad, sad situation. WOTC is no longer cutting fat. It's all muscle now. It seems like every time I turn around one of our contacts at WOTC has been laid off. I have no insider information to share or anything like that. I simply felt like posting...

    Congrats! Second one is always harder than the first (because you have to deal with all that business junk). We can have a drink and celebrate in Vegas. Dave

    Print Run numbers

    I agree with both John and Mystic. Talon, increasing the pie is the domain of the overlord: WOTC. Us little fishies just scour the bottom for crumbs. Dave

    Print Run numbers

    Agreed. Same pie, more hands. Extremely tough for new players.

    Bolen, Rumor has it that some stores have it. If you go the kenzerco.com site and click on the Kalamar general discussion (not he DM one), there's a discussion of GV. A guy there posted in the last day or two that he bought it...

    Kenzer and Company Product Update 02/13/02

    Greatwyrm, The PG should go to press in 2 weeks or less and be back to us before the end of March (our printer is telling us 3 week turnaround max). I will post some previews in a week or so (after it goes through final edits). Also, check the Kalamar boards for a possible preview (in case...

    Kenzer and Company Product Update 02/13/02

    Ed Greenwood's Geanavue is in!! OK, I'm a bit winded from the last post, so I'll be brief. Genavue is in. I had a chance to thunb through it last night, and I have to say, this may be the best d20 product since FR. It's huge -- 208 pages plus a color poster-map (2-sided - the back shows the...

    Kenzer and Company Product Update 02/13/02

    The HM GM SHIELD has gone to press. Look for it in stores near the end of March/1st week of April. It retails for $19.99 It has 32 panels (4 of art) but fits in the same table area as those namby-pamby 8 (4 art) panel screens. How did we cram another 24 panels to make this thing 400% bigger...

    10pt or 12pt fonts?

    If you are concerned about bang for your buck, consider a few other things: 1) Size of margins 2) Artwork (more = less words) 3) spacing between lines of text (this is adjustable and can be used to stretch or squish text). It has been my experience that most d20 publishers stretch their...

    Kenzer and Company Product Update 02/13/02

    Right now we have no plans to print hackmaster as a hard cover. It was damn expensive to reprint the regular book, let alone slap a hardback on it. Most companies would have (and perhaps we should have, but we're a bit insane), charged about $50-60 for the size and content of both the GMG and...
