All,
Man, time flies when you're having fun. The Book of the Estate came out a year ago this month. Regrettably, that was the last major release for the game since. As reported previously, we've not been idle but rather very busy reimagining the world of King Arthur Pendragon with an epic, all-new map that delivers on Greg's long-standing vision of the game that has frankly not been practical to deliver on. Until now. Going forward, all the books in the line (and yes we have quite a pipeline) will benefit from the astonishing amount of meticulous research and design that's taken place over the last twelve months, some glimpses of which we've already previewed in these forums.
We're happy to announce that the Book of the Warlord, long overdue, is now finally in full-on production mode. You can download the book's Introduction chapter here (https://www.dropbox.com/s/en0xm4zw2ah1jr1/Book-of-the-Warlord-Sneak-Peek-v.1.pdf) to get a sneak peek of things to come. Although this won't reveal any of the map work, at least you can check out the Table of Contents and read the Intro so you know what's coming in this next book, which is a companion piece to the Book of the Estate. That book was for the lesser nobility. This one's for the greater nobles — those knights who have won the medieval game of life. What's a baron to do with himself all day? This book will tell you. It's got useful information for Gamemasters and players alike and fills in more of the gaps in our knowledge of High Society, PENDRAGON-style.
We hope you enjoy this preview and it will tide you over until the release of this book, which we're now measuring in weeks, not months. There's still some map work to be done as well as some proofing and QC so it's not fully baked yet, but the book is really shaping up nicely and we thought we'd share.
Enjoy!
Best,
T.
