i can't stop giggling, i never actually got to see much 2e dragonlance, saga came out a couple of years after i started playing and at the time the only store in my town only stocked FR, greyhawk and used stuff. i got the book with classes in it from the tales of the lance box for 3 bucks but that's it. this is the single greatest thing that has happened to my gaming life ever. no, 3e's release was better but this is second, close second. as for the other settings, i'm sure it's just a matter of someone giving up the cash.
the dream is now real! wooooooooooooo! i can finally dm dragonlance!

NOPE! *grins crookedly* I have it on very good authority that Sovereign Stone will continue going strong, and for now I'll just leave it at that.

Hey, what do you want to say? Have you any special info? Why are you so sure?
Too many questions...

I have no idea if Monte would be interested in licensing Planescape from WotC (or if WotC's even interested in licensing PS), but working with him would be cool.
(For the record, I've never worked on PS, so I dunno why y'all think me working on it would be such a great thing, but thanks for the complement.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Woohoo!
By the way, my above comment about DOSF is just my impression of what happened, as I wasn't involved in R&D stuff at the time (I joined TSR right around the time DoSF was about to be published), so I'm basically talking out of my ass. I wish Sovereign Press the best of luck, and I hope that this release of DL as an RPG will be successful.

Personally I hopre DLd20 does well so that the stores and fans will start respecting Sovereign Press and thus more people will see Sovereign Stone on the shelves and be more likely to buy it...
Hopefully such a connection will comes to pass.
I've no care for a world with Kender in it. But I like Sovereign Stone enough that I'd hate to see it fade away. I've no idea how well it's doing but it gets very little presense at any of the stores I visit and almost every time I mention it I have to explain what it is...

Hmmm.. now thats odd, because It's probably the third most popular company (not counting WotC) at my local game store... AEG and FFG are the only two that have as many books on shelf.
*Errrm... wait, nevermind, fourth... I forgot the SCarred Lands buisness, I almost tend to count that as official with the sheer amount they pump out... but lets face it, they have WW backing them)

That's good to hear.Tsyr said:
Out here they almost never re-order it unless somebody asks for it.
It's so rare of a site I was wondering if the company was in danger of failing.
Despite the concerns I voiced on the magic system I have been very impressed with the three Sovereign Press books I own (Core, Codex, Taan) and would hate to see the line go away.
Besides several of you addressed some errors in my concerns over the magic system that may in fact answer the issues I have. I'll have to give it a good re-reading to see.
So it's good to know it's doing well somewhere and I hope the local scene for it here is an anomoly and not the norm.

I think around here part of it is the DL-withdral-syndrom.
For some reason, this entire region is totaly obsessed with Dragonlance and Greyhawk (Myself included). Those are the two "big hitters", always have been. FR actualy is sorta lackluster around here, same with darksun and spelljammer and so forth (although I like the latter two). Heck, SAGA even sold well here (I'm under the impression, given how little was ever done with the SAGA system that that isn't ususual). So when something by the major Dragonlance players started hitting the shelves, it got sucked up QUICK. And perhaps half the reason we like it is SS reminds us a lot of the best of Dragonlance, without the kender
(I never liked what the kender turned out to be... a race of mentaly retarded hyperactive THINGS. Tas was never like that in the Chronicals, and I've always liked how Tas was portrayed there... Sure, he was a kleptomaniac at times, and he was funloving, but he could be very serious when the situation called for it, and actualy quite cold blooded at times (Heck, how he killed the goblin in like the first five pages of the first book has always stuck in my mind. He was actualy quite wise about alot of things, which would come from the wanderlust kender get. But then they got turned from a basicly serious race into a race of comic relief, which I did not like.
