The official Bastion Press Q&A thread

Things sound grim.

I don't think so. The PB staff are still answering questions, both websites are up and active (less so the BP site) and they have several books that just need layout and printing (or pdfing). They didn't disappear like Monkey God or MEG.

Monkey God only disappeared as far as it's RPG branch. I thought that they went to go do some more card/board games?

Their material, afaik, is still being done in PDF format as I just reviewed From Stone to Steel in PDF format.

But yeah, it's good that they're still on the boards keeping the public up to date! We know that they haven't gone the way of Fast Forward!

It's a matter of priorities. Right now, Jim Butler has some personal matters to attend to that make keeping Bastion in the limelight rather difficult because of the time involved. Work is still progressing, it has just slowed a little more than some folks would like. Bastion hasn't gone away or folded contrary to the opinions and beliefs of others. It's just decided to take its time since the current market isn't exactly booming...

Things fall apart
The center cannot hold. (The Second Coming, W.B. Yeats)

Glad to hear things are still being held together. Do what you have to do, Bastion Press. Keep in touch and the fan base will be patient.

Any news on Alchemy and Herbalists V3.5?

Last time I spoke with Jim he mentioned that he wanted to get it released before year's end if he could manage the time to lay everything out again in between other commitments.

MG let their website and forum go silent and don't respond to email. The only reason their material is ending up as pdfs is some other company is doing it.

Some more questions for Tom:

Why wasn't there racial levels for the new races in WW? Are we going to see some in either the PG or a Legacies? I really like the ologatu and bern even if playing the latter is rather difficult. Heck, I see the ologatu spreading to all the domains (except maybe the Vault) due to their hardiness.

Heh heh. That quote is so overused. I found about a billion different references to it on google.
