The T8 Player's Handbook is in the house! ...and boy, it's a thing of beauty (even if it reuses artwork <grin>). Expect to see it in stores in about two weeks or so (maybe three -- this being the Holidays after all). Needless to say, now would be a good time to bug your local retailer about...

We posted a one-page sample of the book on the Web site. (For maximum effect, we naturally chose a big bad Z'bri monster in d20 format, ehehe... even though some of the rules needed to effectively play it are found on other pages.) We might do more of those preview samples if we see they have...

Sorry -- here's the product page. It's a bit "naked" right now, but we'll add more info as the project progresses (sample pages, etc.): http://www.dp9.com/Products/D20Mecha.htm I sure hope so. :) The idea is to make a book that will be useful to all D20 players, regardless of their...

Here's a rough preview of what will be found in the book: MECHA D20, v8.0 Chapter One: Intro (misc. useful info, such as adapting mecha to your own campaign world, etc.) Chapter Two: Fantasy Worlds - Towering Magical Knight - Magical Fantasy battlesuits - Beast Lords - Steampunk Fantasy...

Just thought you'd all like to know: the Tribe 8 Player's Handbook left for the printer earlier last week. We should be able to ship it out so that it will reach stores before Xmas -- great gift for all players. :) --- Marc A. Vezina DP9

Yep, we could see it coming. And before someone pipes up about capitalism and do-or-die, keep in mind this is a general issue in the industry. Even WotC had to dump staff to meet the Real World(tm) profit goals set to it. Simply put: no matter how hard you work or how good your game is, you...

I presume the unspoken bit here is "...but since it's not D20, I haven't picked it up"? :) This is exactly why we have included an OGL "gateway" section. Maybe -- it depends on the sales of this book. Though from what we're seeing right now in pre-orders (3x the usual orders, on average)...

I just updated the book's Web page with the (rather delicious) cover image. Check it out for yourself: http://www.dp9.com/Products/dp9-825.htm Of particular interest to D20 players: 1) A new fantasy setting to play in (with no elves or dwarves or other Tolkienesque items); 2) New nasties...

Which is good for players but not so good for the publishers (who'll have to divide the same pie into smaller pieces). I would advise people to get what they find cool right away, because at that volume of releases, stuff won't stay on the shelves for long -- else the stores will need to...

Read, perhaps, but not play. And we want people to start playing the Tribe 8 setting, because: a) It's a cool place, very different from the usual "elves/dwarves/magic" fantasy setting; b) more play generally equals more sales. :) So the book is really a player's handbook, designed to cut...

That's the plan. No, mostly because of page count limitations. We'll have the major vehicles of each setting, plus a couple of variants for each (since those take only a couple of lines of text). If space allows, we'll add a few more. --- Marc A. Vezina DP9

Yep. In effect, this book will serve as the D20 version of all our mecha games (since we don't want to add yet more D20 versions to clutter the shelves of stores). Yep -- a whole lot of different genres, too. We're building the MC as a sourcebook that can be used by D&D players, Spycraft...

I would gladly announce it if someone would point me toward the right address. :) The new Silhouette rulebook will have such a chapter, and we're looking into dual-stating CC (since it seems it's the only way one gets games in stores now). The conversion's fairly short -- surprisingly...
