[QUOTE="Monte At Home, post: 2838433, member: 1335"] I think you may be thinking of this product a little incorrectly. It's not the beginning of a line, it [I]is[/I] the line. Oh sure, I reserve the right to set the next adventure I write in Ptolus if it strikes me to do so, or whatever, but the Ptolus package is meant to be everything you need, particularly with the inclusion of the Night of Dissolution adventure, which you get for free if you preorder through us or your local retailer. All the adventures, all the locations, the NPCs, the organizations, etc. If you the kind of DM who wants it all laid out for you, Ptolus will serve you well (there's plenty of room for expansion, as well, if you're the kind of DM who wants to make it up on your own). I wrote about this in more depth in [URL=http://www.montecook.com/cgi-bin/page.cgi?mc_diary_40]this article[/URL]. Will there be future Ptolus content from Malhavoc? It's possible. Maybe even likely. But it will be purely add-on. The book has all you need to run a full campaign without really any prep work (besides reading, and deciding which location/adventure to use next). It has all you need to run a couple of campaigns if you're willing to do some work. That said, as others have noted, there's a lot of cool Ptolus support in the form of miniatures, map products, counters, and so on as well. There's even a Ptolus comic book, the first issue of which comes out next week. I highly recommend checking those out as well--Paizo Publishing, Skeletonkey Games, Fiery Dragon and DBPro. [/QUOTE]
