FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Free Dungeon Dudes Handbook: Into the Wilds Edition

JOHNSTOWN, Pa.-December 6th, 2003-New Realms Publishing and Dimensions Game Software announced the release of the Dungeon Dudes Handbook: Into the Wilds Edition, a free internet download available at RPGNow.com.

Dungeon Dudes Handbook: Into the Wilds Edition includes a Random Dude Generator, a Random Monster Generator, notes explaining the Basic Terminology, and the Default Combat System. Also included in the handbook are all the items, phrases, skills, and monsters that are featured in the Dungeon Dudes Into the Wilds expansion set, which is based on Into the Wilds: A Wilderness Adventures Companion, Into the Wilds: Digital Bundle, and the upcoming Eddings Cross, Guide to Adventure. Into the Wilds: A Wilderness Adventures Companion is a d20 sourcebook that includes a new ranger variant, new feats, a system for determining encounter direction and distance, and Spot and Listen DC's that work with existing skill rules, and a simple and detailed system for creating wilderness traps. Also included are 7 maps, in color and B&W line format, depicting ruins, caves and dungeons that GM's can use to design adventure sites ranging from small lairs to extensive cavern and dungeon complexes.

Into the Wilds: Digital Bundle includes the original d20 sourcebook and Into the Wilds: A Digital Companion, developed by Dimensions Game Software. The Digital Companion allows you to randomly generate the information for a wilderness encounter, such as direction, range and terrain, input your own information to calculate Listen and Spot DC's, or a combination of both. It also includes generators for randomly creating wilderness traps and selecting the favored enemy and bonus feats for the ranger variant described in the sourcebook. For GM's using the Into the Wilds sourcebook, this set of digital tools will greatly decrease the time needed to calculate the mechanics behind an upcoming wilderness encounter.

Just a quick note to publishers---the Dungeon Dudes are marketing/promotional tools that businesses can have customized to their own products. I can create a similar handbook for any set of Dungeon Dudes. If the set is based on a product from RPGNow.com, we can probably make it available as a free download there. Otherwise it can be offered at the appropriate company's website and the Dimension Games Software website.

Just a quick note to players---a very exciting expansion from one of my favorite non-RPG characters should be out very soon. After many requests, the offline rules will expanded to be more similar to a full-fledged RPG (however, they will always be online virtual pet-like characters). Also, d20 and Fudge system conversions are in the works. And the first foreign language translation should available around December 17th.
