Just curious: last I heard, Shooting Iron Press was producing Talislanta material. Is this for the same edition of Talislanta?

Talislanta

Morrigan Press is the current publisher for Talislanta. We took over from Shootingiron earlier this month.

Yes, we are continuing to support the current edition (4th) as well a getting ready to go to press with a brand new d20 edition as well.

The above books will be published using the 4th edition rules but will have conversion notes for the d20 version as well. We are aiming to make both editions as compatible with the setting material as possible.

Cheers,
Scott Agnew

*grin* D20 Tal, huh?

I contacted John Harper way back in 2002 about possibly doing a d20 version of Talislanta, but we never got beyond a few emails, since at the time I didn't yet realize how much time it takes to actually write and publish books. I'm rather interested in revisiting this now, though.

Is there some place I could find more information on the d20 conversion? Meanwhile, I'll be planning what I can come up with to fit your needs.

Tal d20

Best bet is to contact me off-list with any specific questions. We are well into the development cycle of the d20 version.

You can contact me directly at scott@morriganrpg.com
