Hi guys,

It is time to advance our release schedule forward another month! The following books will be released by Mongoose Publishing in June;


The Slayer’s Guide to Dragons
The father of all role-playing, Gary Gygax, takes us all through a journey that will reveal previously hidden details on the most beloved of all monsters – the Dragon! The Slayer’s Guide to Dragons is a 128 page sourcebook covering dragons of all types. Jam-packed with new information on truly ancient wyrms, new species, crossbreeding, draconic society, their battle tactics and dragon-only feats and spells, this book will serve every Games Master in whichever campaign he plays.


The Quintessential Elf
Taking an in depth look at Elves within the d20 system, this 128 page sourcebook is dedicated to players interested in running Elf-classed characters. Written by Alejandro Melchor (Encyclopaedia Arcane - Constructs), this sourcebook gives a wealth of new skills, feats and prestige classes but The Quintessential Elf sets itself apart by introducing many new character options that any Elf may attempt. As well as introducing many new sub-species of Elves, players will also be able to access the deepest secrets of this race, uncovering high magic, superior archery, trances, skill in blades and calling upon the wrath of the Elven deities who preside over all their children do. The Quintessential Elf is a must for every player wishing to exploit the full capabilities of his or her character.


The Planes: Zahhak - Ash Waste of the Abyss
The 28th layer of the Abyss, known as the Ash Wastes of Zahhak, is a hellish domain of the most vile evils. Lost souls wander the desolate wastelands whilst demonic lords marshal their forces to battle one another in an endless match that has already seen the land broken apart and laid to ruin by war. A few daring and foolhardy adventurers dare to set foot within the Ash Wastes, to learn the secrets of the Abyss and fight against the constant politicking, backstabbing and outright war of the mightiest of demons.


Encyclopaedia Divine: Fey Magic – Dreaming the Reverie
Arcane spellcasters have had it their way for far too long. The Encyclopaedia Divine series will do for Clerics, Rangers, Paladins and Druids what the Arcane series has done for Sorcerers and Wizards – greatly expand the number of options available to magic-using character classes. Kicking off with Fey Magic – Dreaming the Reverie, this 64 page sourcebook will provide all a player needs to know about contacting creatures of the Fey, winning their favour and harnessing their power. However, only one who is prepared to submit everything they are may court the friendship of the Fey, for they are capricious races all too ready to destroy the will of mortals.


Judge Dredd RPG
I am the Law and you better believe it! Welcome to Mega-City One, a city of over four hundred million people and everyone of them a potential criminal. Stretching the length of the 22nd century American eastern seaboard, Mega-City One is the most dangerous city on earth, for it is calculated that one serious crime takes place every second of every day. So dangerous, it demands a special breed of law enforcer. Here, there are no police, no trials and no juries – only the judges. It takes fifteen years to train a judge for life on the streets of Mega-City One. Fifteen years of iron discipline, rigid self-control and concentrated aggression. Toughest of all judges is Joe Dredd, a man vested with the power of instant sentence, a man whose court is the streets and whose word is the Law! The Judge Dredd role-playing game, based on the D20 System, will take players to the heart of Mega-City One and beyond, either as judges determined to uphold the Law, or perps, willing to risk everything for personal profit and gain.


The Rookie’s Guide to the Justice Department
The first supplement for the Judge Dredd RPG, The Rookie’s Guide to the Justice Department will tell a judge everything he needs to know about the massive organisation he has behind him whilst taking the Law to the streets. Players and Games Masters alike can discover the true politics that exist in the higher strata of the Justice Department, as well as specialise in new fields, such as the renowned Holocaust Squad. The full resources of the Justice Department are also portrayed, from advanced forensic facilities, to the incredible might of Psi-Div and the awesome fire power of the Orbital Defence Platforms.

uhh nice! now we just need to know when we can preorder the metal cover version of judge dread :)

Don't worry, those on these boards will be amongst the first to know! Basically, we are awaiting a mock-up so we can actually show you guys what this book will look like before you part with any hard-earned cash.

Hi there,

It will be a fixed number (either 100 or 200) and we will ship to anywhere in the world!

Err... I don't know how large a print run the 'common' version will be, but common, only 100-200 special editions. This is going to be a collectors item, please make it a 1000 ;-) (i won't add the corny line "Make it so, I AM THE LAW!")

Only 100 or 200? That's pretty small run, guys.

Well, what do you expect? The production cost on those is going to be outrageous.

1/2 inch thick steel plate for book Cover.

Three color acid etching procedure.

Rental of .50 caliber machine gun for that authentic bullet hole in the lower right hand corner of the book.

All of these things (and maybe more if they decide to go with the delux version) add a lot to the cost, so they want to be really careful about not over-stocking.
