Hello fellow Pendragon players. My first post on this forum is a question about the new books, specifically Book of Knights and Ladies and Book of Battle. I am sorry if this has been asked before but... Is there any way to buy these books? Either hard copies or PDFs will do.

They are not currently available.

Nocturnal has had more than the usual difficulties getting this line in order.
I prefer to keep mum rather than raise expectations, but I have been told that K&L will be ready for release soon.
Watch the Word from Camelot for more soon!

Thanks for the prompt answer, Greg. Pendragon is a rarity here in Brazil (well, a lot of things are...) but I've managed to get my hands on a few Pendragon books. I recently bought the "Earky Pendragon bundle" from DriveThruRPG. I hope you get royalties from these...

As for the new books, if I may ask, why don't you just sell PDFs of the current versions?

Thank you. For the record, I do.

We are going to.
I am not privy to the "upstairs business" but I understand we will shortly release K&L, 1st edition; followed by the others.
After that, some newer material will be sorted out and being released.
We are all sad for the delay, but believe me--the long-term vision wins on this. The grace of not changing the game system has allowed a long buildup of good material, and whereas the fits and starts are frustrating for us who live through it, for those who just join in there is a good, solid library to use, immediately on hand.
Like in the Early pENDRAGON bUNDLE! :)

Unfortunately I am guessing you don't get any royalties from the second hand sales of some of the print versions of these titles - especially before the PDFs were available, some of these sold for quite a pretty penny on eBay. ;D

As I was fortunate enough to get a copy of BoK&L, BoA, BoB and BotM in print when you were selling them directly, the absence of the PDFs doesn't affect me as much, but I am still looking forward to these great books being more widely available again. It will mean my players stop asking to borrow mine!

I just hope the Book of Battle is available again before my first battle scene! ;D

By the way, today was the first game session of my campaign. My first contact with Pendragon was in the early 90s, but until today I have only read the books, not actually played with then. It was great! Now you have fans (or at least new fans) here in Brazil!

What did The Book of Battle and The Book of Army focus on and will there be any corrections in the new releases?

P.S. Greg, I really enjoy the Pendragon roleplaying game. Please continue the good work on future products.

BoBATTLE expands the unsatisfactory method in the core book so each battle can be a scenario in itself.
The entire point of view is from your knight's small unit, not the big overall battle.
Key decisions are made by the Unit Leader, with each hour of melee encapsulated to be one round of combat.
Such is the theory, and others can comment on its success or failure.

BoARMIES random enemy tables for 32 different Pendragon armies, including the different Periods (Anarchy, Tournament, etc), each continental Player Knight area (French, Occitan, Zazamac) , and a number of variously useful (Routiers, Faeries) or amusing (Bandits) armies.

I will take this random moment to thank you and all who have so kindly sent me word of your pleasure and thanks. It warms my ol' kingly heart to read it, though I do not respond to each of you.
I'm busy writing other work right now, but will be back with a vengence as new product by my co-contributrs appears.

Will this release be Book of Battle 1.1? Or a straight reprint of the original?
