    Publishers Action Plans to d20 Slump?

    Simply not true. The Mutants and Masterminds book is in stock and selling briskly every month! If you drop me a line privately, I'll see if I can get Osseum to sort things out with your distributor! Nicole

    Publishers Action Plans to d20 Slump?

    Oops. Sorry for the double posting. I've been having a heck of a time with the new EN boards (which is why you don't see me here so much anymore... missed me? ;) ) Nicole

    The consolidation going on

    I don't have the same perspective on "middlemen" that you do. I suppose it's true that if you're a one-man show with a couple of releases a year, the percentages paid out to sales and fulfillment companies "cut into profits." Still, I have to say that I don't see Green Ronin's relationship to...

    (Green Ronin) Freebies for Skull & Bones

    Book of Fiends is in the production line right behind Black Sails Over Freeport. We've had some late turnovers on BoF; it's likely it won't be available until December at this point. The good news is that it's going to be quite excellent when it's finally finished. :) Nicole

    (Green Ronin) Freebies for Skull & Bones

    Green Ronin is happy to announce that Skull & Bones is in stores and is meeting with enthusiastic response from fans of pirates and voodoo. If you missed this treasure, the free preview is still available for download at: http://www.greenronin.com/files/skull_bones_pre.pdf But what's a good...

    prices getting a little nuts?

    I suppose it's not worth suggesting that we should examine West End Games' financial health or their rank in the industry since those days. Instead, I will just pop in to mention that the costs to today's publisher for the "nice light boxed set" is nearly as much as a coor hardback, if not...

    d20 Game Master Screen by Green Ronin

    Well, we did what we could (looked at the current standard weight for screens these days), and printed both this and the M&M screen on heavier stock than anything else on the market. Unfortunately, the super-rigid "cardboard" type stock (ala 1st Edition) drives the cost of a screen right up...

    [Publishers] Full Color Products?

    Right on, brother. I'd support you in that effort right up to the point you ran out of money. ;) Seriously, we've been incredibly fortunate to be able to do the Mutants & Masterminds line in color and make it work out. Printing color books *is* a whole other level of fun. I certainly don't...

    [Green Ronin] Announcing the Book of Fiends

    :o :BLUSH: I figured being a decent company willing to work cooperatively with others was just the right way to behave. But I suppose I can live with undying love and gratitude. ;) Seriously, though, it's a cooperative effort that just made sense and we were happy to do it! Nicole

    [Green Ronin] Announcing the Book of Fiends

    Way back when Hoards was conceived, we thought it would be a good third stand-alone in the line, but after considering the numerous (if small) changes that 3.5 has inspired, we really felt it would be best if we could both 3.5-update (and add to) Legions of Hell and Armies of the Abyss and...

    [Green Ronin] Announcing the Book of Fiends

    It's hard to tell from the small mock-up, but Sutfin's cover for this book is exceptionally detailed and really beautiful. The "blue" chick isn't semi-naked! In fact, she's not "blue"! She's wearing a blue bodysuit; maybe she's a servant of the big baddy on the cover, maybe she fancies...

    Post ENnies Judges thread

    HAH! :) If we really wanted the most bang for the buck, Morrus could highlight it on the EN front page: "Nicole Lindroos wonders why everyone else doesn't love Monkey God like she does..." :p Nicole

    ENnies 2004 - looking ahead

    As someone from a company that took home a bunch of silver ENnies, I'd honestly agree with this. We were all certainly thrilled beyond reason, and blabbed too long considering we were taking home the runner-up award in most cases. :) If the rule was that speeches were reserved for the Gold, I...

    Post ENnies Judges thread

    I was just too darn busy to get around to talk to all the other publishers in the way I wanted to at GenCon, but I made a point to go over and talk to the guys at Monkey God. I've been watching their products from the beginning and, as I said to them, they're an example of one of those D20...

    [Gencon 04] All Publishers Please Read.

    "If this were a GenCon sponsored pavillion," I took that to mean GenCon *sponsoring* it (ie, not collecting the fees). If I'm still forking out some percentage of the cost of a 15-booth pavilion in order to get what I would already get for cheaper if I bought my traditional endcap alone, then I...

    [Gencon 04] All Publishers Please Read.

    Right, that's what I was getting at earlier. Thanks for taking the time to dig up the actual numbers! Sure, that would alleviate some of my concerns. :) Still, from a business management perspective, I can't see Peter or the other GenCon managers giving up the revenue from selling those...

    [Gencon 04] All Publishers Please Read.

    Well, here are several problems: * placement on the floor in a convention like GenCon is determined by Priority Points. There is no way to select your exact location, that's determined by the convention organizers. * priority points: I have a great deal of experience with banding together...

    [ENnies] WotC on the outs

    Try as I might, I can't view this as a neutral statement. There's no reason to be concerned about imposing artificial limits on entrants unless the bottom line is that you feel the winners did not deserve their awards. You can't say the products were "good and deserving of awards" on one hand...
