Upcoming Content

[Morrus]

Here's a quick list of upcoming 4E content on EN World in the next month or so; dates may change:

• Pirate of the High Seas - a "profession" and paragon path (already published) by Matt James
• Heroes of the Far East: Samurai by Malcolm Northwinter
• Firearms of the High Seas by Matt James (15 Oct)
• Heroes of the Far East: Wu-Jen by Andrew Mongeau (18 Oct)
• Heroes of the Far East: Ninja by Matthew Hanson (22 Oct)
• Monsters of the Far East by Shawn Merwin (24 Oct)
• Ships of the High Seas (shipboard environments) by Matt James (TBA)
• Monsters of the High Seas by Matt James (TBA)
• Magic of the High Seas by Matt James (TBA)

There are several more articles in the planning stages, also, along with two new comic strips to go alongside the current DM's Choice strip.

Suggestions for article themes are always welcome! Once we've dispensed with Pirates and the Far East, we're considering:

• Greek Mythology
• Aurthurian
• Dante's Hell
• A Thieves' Guild

I'm ALWAYS looking for new arcane spells, hint, hint.

Quick update for you, that article on Samurai is written by Malcolm Northwinter

 

[Camelot]

• Greek Mythology
• Aurthurian

Yes and yes please! I love anything that has to do with dragons and magic, particularly arcane. Though anything original enough will make me wow!

On a related note, is there a way we can submit our own 4e content to EN World (for free, of course)? Or should ambitious young homebrewers look for other publishing opportunities first? =)

 

[Morrus]

You can always ask me to look at stuff. No promises though!

 

[Shemeska]

How about some content for systems other than 4e?

 

[Leif]

But, ah, wait, don't we already have stuff for lots of other games on here? Try looking in some different Forums, Shemeska, you'll be surprised what you can find on here. Why, I myself am playing a Babylon 5 (d20) game here right now! Isn't that non-4E enough for you?

Except these (the stuff announced earlier in the thread) are the sort of features that will eventually become bonus content available only to community supporters unless I'm totally reading something wrong. And if it all appears to be for a system that I don't play, it just strikes me as rather unfortunate when I'm in the middle of a two year supporter account.

Of course if equal content (more or less) for various systems ultimately ends up being there in the future, all the better. But at the moment it's rather one-sided, hence my asking if we'll see other systems being supported with articles and other content as well in the future, rather than just the 4e stuff promoted here.

The vast majority - at present - are written by me, and I'm not qualified to write for Pathfinder or other games. But I am in the talking stage with some freelancers with areas of expertise* outside my own. But we're not going to try and cover every game equally - that would be a project of truly epic scope! I'm not even sure a company the size of WotC could do it.

*Not that I'm calling myself an expert - but you get what I mean.
