The topic isn't for me. But I really like your artwork!!!

 

[trancejeremy]

Well, it's better than the somewhat creepy (IMHO) artwork in the other sex in rpg book.

But this seems more like a generic book, with some d20 stuff tacked on, than a d20 book. Usually generic books with d20 stuff tacked on tend to be somewhat lacking.

It seems to imply (I might be wrong) that the only d20 material is "4 character/prestige classes, 12 feats, 14 new spells". So that's what, like 5-6 pages?

You're right, though it's 8 pages with artwork.

Is it lacking? I guess that depends on your point of view. If you're looking for a book with lots of cool powers and ways to kill lots of orcs, then it is definitely lacking. By design.

Naughty & Dice is designed for role players, and thus it speaks in terms that go beyond game mechanics. The d20 mechanics that are provided are more examples of what could be done with the other 100 pages of Naughty & Dice than anything else.

Great! Looks and sounds much better than the other book out there (looked at thgat at GenCon - one word "ICK").

Any word on when it will be released to stores?

It's currently being reviewed by US distributors. We'll have to see how things go with that to get them in stores. If our current schedule holds (fingers crossed) we should get copies in our offices on Sept. 29th. We can ship those directly to customers and directly to any stores that want them at that point. We also plan to have them available through rpgmall.

Or at least I assume that is what this is based on.

Will this book be effected by the new standards that WoTC just put into place?

 

[KingOfChaos]

Most likely -.- I am already altering some of the material and ordering new art for our prestige class book, Careers in Villainy. I can only be horrified at what the new license will do to this book.
