We are holding on tight up here in Central Florida and hoping that everyone is ok. Good luck floridians! Dustin

Just got this message from Goodman Games last night! Hi everyone, Just wanted to let you know that Blackmoor has shipped from the printer... ...and it's freakin' awesome. You will all be very satisfied. Those of you who have placed preorders and will be at Gen Con can pick up your copies at...

Well actually we didn't take those elements out at all. What's unique about Blackmoor beyond the core feel of the world is indeed things like the clock and steam technology. That's not removed at all. In fact you can see detailed pics of the items in the gallery section of the Zeitgeist Games...

Hi Sigil, I will try to have an answer on this for you quickly. I know that the books did indeed ship from the printer and were on the way. I can only guess that they will ship very soon. :) As always, I am eager for your feedback when you do get the book. Dustin

I am going to hang out in the EnWorld chat room (irc.psionics.net) Room #dnd3e. You can get there from the top of the main page easily. My nick is ZG_Dustin. I will post longer replies later, but if you want immediate answers, ping me there. :) Dustin

You are getting the wrong idea here. Speculation isn't useful for a book that is 240 pages. There is *plenty* of wahoo in there. The key is that in order to do the things correctly, we had to take a high level view of what could be accomplished. Just because the laser swords and complete 60...

It's an often made mistake, but the answer is a definite no. I do know the real identity of the EGG and it remains a secret. :) Ask Dave is you want to know the answer. Dustin

Well thanks for that opinion. I have to disagree with you though. We are not making anyone buy anything. Maybe you should just wait till you see it. If you want you laser sword, that's no problem, go get it. The campaign is relaunching pretty much from the go. At this point, nobody knows about...

Sounds cool. One thing I would note, we are building all of this stuff up so that it has a natural progression with the storyline that will follow in modules and other sorts of efforts. Waiting too long to nab it might work against you. Additionally, we will be looking for playtester groups for...

Hi Mike! Don't sweat not knowing things about the world. It's our job to let you in on them. Dave did work on the DA series of modules in the mid 80's that included "Adventures in Blackmoor", "The Temple of the Frog", "City of the Gods" and, "The Duchy of Ten". He didn't do any work on the...

No Sandy Petersen? I think that Call of Cthulhu is a pretty spiffy game. Petersen is in the Hall of Fame too right? Boo..Hisss. I like everyone listed + Sandy P! Dustin

Dave was very heavily involved with the core design of the game and the detailing of places and people in Blackmoor. We had a total of 5 writers on the project (It is a big book). Dave was very much involved in the process the whole way through. He isn't remote, he and I are in the same burg, so...

Hmmm, well lets see. TSR's version of Blackmoor was indeed destroyed. Imo, quite unremarkably too.... The main differences for people to contemplate are these: This is Dave Arneson's Blackmoor. It is not affiliated with Greyhawk in any way shape or form. Any overlap or references to anything...

Thanks! That's a good question. Blackmoor is still a frontier and there are those in the world that marvel at how the dwarves could capture and control steam the way that they do. Honestly, we are really at a hybrid of the two. Areas that are well protected, have developed beyond the medieval...

Ok, I will try to make sure I hit everyone's questions going forward. RACES The classic fantasy races exist in Blackmoor. The halflings are bit closer to thier hobbit cousins in Blackmoor than in GH. We also have new halfling subrace called the Docrae. Those of you who saw the December Dragon...

Those new pics are up in the Gallery section of our website. Also, feel free to prowl our forums. We have some of the old classic players like The Great Svenny relating tales of his first adventures in Blackmoor. Dustin www.zeitgeistgames.com

I am going to put up some pics from the book regarding technology. Just head over to the site and take a quick peek at some of the tech. The core book is designed to give an overview of this stuff regarding the kind of flavor. There wasn't enough space to put in the actual production/crafting...

Hi Everyone, Good to see some discussion on the biggest forums in the D&D world, imo. The main reason for not having a ton of "Look at me" posts is out of respect and disregard for overhyping stuff in the wrong forums. When I see that, I get annoyed and so I didn't want to be percieved as one...

The scary part is going to be when the 3e players are in the same boat as the 2e players are now. :) Hopefully we will all be alot nicer to the whippersnappers.... Dustin
