It will get there eventually, and I will have it!

What is next ing the Legends series?

You keep making them, I'll keep buying them!

Next is Legends of the Dark Ages, which I just reviewed here though it is not out just yet.

Well right now Im working on a series of smaller Legends books (small in this case means about 80-100 pages each) detailing medieval Europe. These will likely be PDFs only, but depending on sales a print compilation is possible.

The first one is done is due any day, Legends of the Dark Ages, covering Europe from 476 to 814 (fall of Rome through death of Charlemagne).

Next will be Legends of the Middle Ages (Europe from 800-1300 or so).

These books are going to be smaller, mostly player material, because GMs already know how to capture the feel of medieval Europe, all the monsters in the PHB could conceivable appear, etc.

As for what's next in the major league way, meaning the full-on 80 page player's guide and 80 page GM's guide, followed by a HC print run, Id say China and Roma are probably the front runners there.

Just wanted to drop a line and let everyone know that the next PDF, Legends of the Dark Ages, is out now, it clocks in at 77 pages.

I finally got a hold of the book, and you did a great job. Congrats. This is the perfect tool for running and playing in fantasy/historical Japan. I just so happend to be reading Genpei by Kara Dalkey, which chronicled the conflict between the Taira and the Minamoto clans with a fantasy twist. Recommended reading to anyone who wants to run a japanese style fantasy!

I am sad to hear that there won't be more Legends books in print. I'll purchase the PDFs of course, but let me put a vote out there for print - even if it is a compilation of multiple Legends of .... products.

Great Job!

Thanks a lot, Im glad you like the book

Next up is a support book for Legends of the Dark Ages, and then probably another short Legends of the Samurai adventure.
