Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mark CMG" data-source="post: 5811400" data-attributes="member: 10479">The Publisher's Forum has recently been combined with the General Forum so it's now the place for such things.  It may be that Tav, a longtime EN Worlder, thought that with the demise of the Publisher Forum, news and PR goes where it seems to best fit.  Since the reviews were making 5E comparisons, I can certainly understand why it was put where it was, albeit erroneously.Personally, I'm looking forward to getting a chance to give ACK a play through in late March at Gary Con in Lake Geneva (where it all began).  There will be a lot of (O)D&D, 1E AD&D, 2E AD&D, Basic D&D, Original Chainmail, as well as C&C, Hackmaster, Pathfinder, and other games happening all that weekend, so making comparisons to older editions will be easy to do.  Hopefully, some concrete revelations will come regarding 5E before that time so I'll also be able to check it out in that light as well.  It's a shame WotC isn't going to be running any of their playtests there, as a nod to tradition.  I read they had been playing some older edition games with one another, and I hope that has helped them get somewhat of a feel for those dusty rulesets.  If any of them get to Lake Geneva, they'd be able to play in some games run by Tim Kask, Frank Mentzer, and other authors from those editions they plan to have 5E honor.  I'm lucky enough to have scored a seat at the table of Ernie Gygax's game this year (I've gamed with Frank and Tim in the past - GREAT FUN!).Anyway, EN World has always been an open place for folks to advertise their new RPGs, though that was tradtionally done in a separate forum.  Let's not break out the torches and pitchforks and run off an old campaigner like Tav for making an error in judgement as to where to place his personally happy news of good reviews for his labor of love.  He's a good guy and deserves some hearty congratulations for getting his baby through the tough stages.Plus, when I get Griffins & Grottos out, I don't want you guys even more practiced at running folks off with their newfangled rulesets. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
