[QUOTE="TheSword, post: 9729756, member: 6879661"] I think this is exactly my concern. You have the books and don’t play it. These aren’t vanity exercises. What happens to the 4e line when 50% switch to the new edition. There is only I do believe grimdark RPG is a niche whether fantasy or futuristic, and one which can only be made more niche by splinting into 3 different versions of each setting. Perhaps it makes strategic sense old fans (WFRP 4e, and IM) new fans (Soul Bound and Wrath & Glory), and historical spin off (Old World, Horus Heresy) but to me it seems very risky. I personally think we will see very little support for 4e going forward. A token product or two. I doubt there will be anything else this year. Marienberg early next year and for the first time ever no forward release schedule. My understanding is that the older lines weren’t even discussed at Gencon. IM has a painfully slow release CRB and screen in 2023. Inquisition books and starter set in 2024 and Equipment book in 2025. No further releases confirmed this year. No adventure books. No expanded setting beyond the starter set. It’s anaemic and a really concern. Honestly it’s the main reason I haven’t started a campaign - because I don’t think there is enough to sustain it. Wrath and Glory has had a faster development but it is now petering out. Is HH and TOW going to be any different? It’s disappointing. [/QUOTE]
