We're holding a chat in our chat room on Thursday, January 15 at 5 p.m. Pacific. I'll be there to discuss Chaositech or whatever else people want to talk about, including our recently announced products Beyond Countless Doorways, Children of the Rune, and Mystic Secrets: The Lore of Word and...

I suspect that website traffic is indeed vitally important, but I don't know if it's the cause or the effect. Our site has really good traffic. When a product goes on sale, we direct that traffic both to our own sales site and to RPGNow. The initial sales surge is thus split about 50/50. Over...

Right. As a general rule, people only provide feedback on products (whether they be reviews, letters to the publisher, messageboard comments or game store talk) that they really like or really hate (and more the former than the latter). Books that are average don't inspire for good or ill. That...

I do think that the 5 reviews rule for the list is a good one*. The flaw comes in when you present the resulting list as the "Top 20 d20 products." It's really the "Top 20 d20 products that got a lot of reviews." It also doesn't address some of the realities of the marketplace, because it's...

While we've recently announced our new Planescape-esque book, Beyond Countless Doorways, and Mike Mearls' addition to the Malhavoc family as well as his new Arcana Unearthed magic book Mystic Secrets: The Lore of Word and Rune, we also this week have announced a whole new kind of product for us...

I ran a campaign that lasted for about two years that did just as you describe about five or six years ago. Sean Reynolds, one of the players, wrote about it here: http://www.wizards.com/dnd/DnD_CGT_001.asp Basically, it was the "first age" of a classic fantasy world. Spellcasters had to make...

Anger of Angels, a 3.5 compatible sourcebook on all things celestial (including angel PCs) will be out by Christmas.

The book's out of print now, or virtually so, and so we figured if we're going to reprint anyway, why not update it and, if we can manage it, put in an appendix on using the material with Arcana Unearthed? So that's what we're going to try to do. More on that, if you're interested, in the...
