Awaiting with Excitment for...?

More than anything else, Ars Magica 5th edition.

I seriously came close to having a seizure when I found out it was due in November. I was figuring on 2005. SO happy!

Other than that:

• Beyond Human (Eden Studios, Unisystem), though it's looking to be a loooong wait
• Races of Destiny, because humans are, by far, my favorite race in D&D
• The Complete Adventurer, desperately hoping it's not another Song & Silence
• d20 Past, becasue I must buy all things d20M... save for the gun book
• GURPS Powers and the update to GURPS Space I'm assuming will be released eventually
• All things HERO
• Sharn: City of Towers
• Races of Eberron
• Arcana Evolved
• Mystic Secrets: Lore of Word and Rune
• Delta Green
• Burning Wheel Magic Burner
• M&M: Noir
• Dragon Fist
• The forthcoming books in Goodman Games' "Power Gamer's 3.5 Strategy Guide" line they damn well better be working on
• Other stuff I'm probably forgetting

I'm also sort of curious to see how the d20 update of 2300AD QLI is working on turns out.

Has Wizards' actually corrected its mistake!? No more Book of Bad Latin

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/iw/20040912a&o=dnd/iwmini

This book takes its name from a set of tomes penned in a dialect of Celestial by an aasimar cleric of Pelor named Acrinus, who collected the information from a variety of other sources over the course of decades. Roughly translated, it means From the Books of Dead, though some sages claim that the current name is a bastardization of Acrinus's original title. Since he's long dead, and the dialect of Celestial is no longer used by living creatures, this is impossible to confirm.

• Blue Rose by Green Ronin, mostly for the magic system
• Thieves World by Green Ronin, I've wanted this since the first time I read the books.
• Conan Atlantean Edition
• For Amazon to ship World's Largest Dungeon

So Celestial = bad Latin? Does Infernal = Pig Latin? (Mocking WotC not you...)

The Auld Grump, and the Daemon Prince Yeachub spoke thus to those who had invaded his realm: Etgay outway ofwa erehay ouyay amnedday idskay! Ahtway oday ouyay hinktay histay isway, away hoppingsay allmay? Oiway!

No sweat.

Didn't people establish that it's dative plural, so "From the Books of the Dead" basically works? Been a while since I took Latin.

And if Celestial = basically church Latin, then yes it = bad Latin.

Top of the list right now is: A Game of Thrones (GoO)

Of course I heard they are waiting until the fourth Fire & Ice book is finished to be able to get more time with GRRM, so who knows how long I must wait but my pre-order is already in.

that's what the guy said at the GoO booth at gencon. i thought he said next spring, maybe. i am not exactly sure, i just remembering thinking it was a long time off.
