Some people asked Dominic McDowall-Thomas about that at Dragonmeet and the answer, as far as it was reported, is that it will be just one box, as the cost for them to do two would be prohibitive. But it still isn't clear how they'll resolve the dual-stat thing. Moreover, from what I glimpsed...

The dual-stats thing isn't really a problem. They have a different team dedicated to the conversion of the game statistics from TOR to AiME: that's how they are able to keep the pace so fast. The process is much slimmer: conversion, layout, table of contents, index, new cover, licensor approval...

Annoying? I've got the impression that the release schedule for AiME is anything but slow, actually! The TOR lineup is beginning to be quite large and they're catching up on it quite fast... too much fast and people simply won't be able to keep on buying at an equal rate. On the other hand, the...

They hadn't to redeem themselves at all, actually... C7 is one of the best RPG companies on the market. And they really seem to be great chaps too. Now that I think of it, European companies are doing some wondrous contributions to the hobby... C7, Pelgrane, Modiphius, Ulisses, Fria Ligan...

What rebbeman said, more or less. And, also, Death on the Reik is superb. Easily one of the greatest masterpiece of adventure design and a RPG milestone.

As a matter of fact, it will be indeed dual- statted: the first product done this way. The reason for this is that it won't be a "simple" book, but a deluxe boxed set. And we all know how much of a money-sink boxed sets could be for publishers!

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4th Edition. Warhammer 40.000: Wrath & Glory. Trinity Continuum: Core Rulebook.

I see... but I'm already mad (about this game, at the very least)!

Hey, Morrus! I really think you missed the part where they're teasing tomorrow's news about the return of "The Enemy Within" campaign... Citing verbatim: "We’ll have more to share tomorrow, including news of the return of a multi-part campaign favourite from first edition, so keep an eye on...

Yep, you're right. I was going by memory, but it seemed all too familiar. In fact, here there are elementa from both the illustrations used as the covers for "Death on the Reik" and "Warhammer City". Looking at the publishing date of "The forge in the forest", the novel war released in the...

Yeah, it is a great cover art. And I guess Cakebread and Walton had no doubt it would be, when they were choosing it, as it is a zooming-in of the iconic cover for the classic "Death on the Reik" supplement for the first edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay! In fact, it is quite fascinating...

To be honest, I'm not seeing that many mainstream publishers in the winners list. Apart from Wizards - which is present only in the publisher category -, what names should we consider mainstream? Cubicle 7? Modiphius? They certainly are growing (and bigger than Lamentations of the Flame Process)...

Well, Wizards is the big name. The Ennies are , more or less, a popularity contest. Even if Wizards, this year, couldn't qualify in the products categories (and it's what it should have been: remember when 5th edition came out and the Monster Manual - usually considered a functional product at...

Greg Stafford has always said - and keeps on doing it - that "Your Glorantha may vary". And I think that that sum it up everything about existing settings: you want to adher to the "canon" and play around it? Feel free to do so. On the other hand, if you want to go wild and crazy with your...

The new edition will return players to Warhammer's grim world of perilous adventure, and takes its direction from the first and second editions of the game. Cubicle 7’s highly anticipated 4th edition of the game will take its cues from the 1st and 2nd editions Bold mine. Those are the only...

Whatever the licence does actually allow, we can only guess. Having the right to distribute 2nd edition materials doesn't automatically mean having the right to do the same with 1st edition ones too. GW is heavily jealous and overtly protective of its IP, so I'm not that sure C7 has any right to...

I sincerely doubt they'll release 1st edition PDFs, as those have never really existed in an official form, so C7 would have to find some mint copies of the original publications by GW or Hogshead Publishing and physically scan them. I doubt they have the resource and the manpower to do them in...

Their prehistoric approach to print+PDF (which means, in fact, a total lacking of a discounted print+PDF pledge level, which is an almost universal industry standard for RPG crowdfunding) completely put me off this campaign. Has that changed in any way? Don't think so, it seems to be contrary...
