Message: <blockquote data-quote="FDP Mike" data-source="post: 892983" data-attributes="member: 325">I think that I'll need to step carefully here in order to honour my NDA, but I can offer a little bit of info on the Warcraft RPG ....The first book is in production right now and should be off to the printers soon; I believe that S&SS is aiming for a Gen Con release, but don't, um, quote me on that. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> The game is indeed 3.5 compatible; everything's been adjusted and updated in accordance with the 3.5 PHB and DMG. (The monster book to follow will of course be "3.5 ready" as well.)You'll be seeing something similar, I guess, to the Kalamar stuff -- an official D&D license, with the D&D logo no less, but published by S&SS (more specifically, I think the Arthaus division). In essence, it's D&D as played in the Warcraft setting, with certain changes to make D&D represent the setting more accurately. Does that make sense?  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />I think the translation of the RTS to a pen-and-paper RPG is done wonderfully by Deirdre and the writers. The flavour of Azeroth and its races really comes through strongly. As a fan of the RTS, man, I'd love to run or play in the RPG ....Ah, Gen Con just cannot get here too soon!Take care,Mike</blockquote>
