Hm, maybe I have not even discussed this publicly?

The material for the BoB is just too much to put into one book. It would be larger than BoK&L, and the Battle Enemy Tables are unnecessary for ordinary players to have, though essential for Gamemasters.

Hey players--"unnecessary" but hekka lotta fun anyway, if you are a medieval enthusiast! And reading it should not harm your roleplaying.

Pendragon Book of Armies gives twenty-six armies to fight, eight of them period-by-period Arthurian Knights, seven are other British Armies, and eight are Continental Armies. All of them are tailored to the time and/or place to exploit as much color as possible, from old beggers with sticks to zumbooruk, they're here.

Currently at about 70 pages.

This will be released at the same time as Book of Battle.

Pendragon Book of Armies is finished, by me, and will be sent to scrutinizers to check the thousands of stats that are in it for consistency and error.

It will be laid out much faster than BoB, as this one consists in large part of d20 encounter tables.

BoA will be released simultaneously with BoB.

Book of Armies has been sent to layout.

My battle-eager friends,

I have caused a delay in The Pendragon Book of Armies.
It now has a release date: December 1, 2009.
I am sorry, and beg patience.

Pre-publication orders are still being taken at significant savings to you.
See http://gspendragon.com/pendragonpublications.html for more details.

Pre-publication specials will stop when the book is released.

(I love this book.)

Thank you for your patience.

My very patient friends,

Delays, of course. *sigh* sorry

The release date is Dec 8, 2009.

--Greg

Dec 8 today.

:( Alas, the books are a little late

They will be a couple of days late, but will go out quickly once they hit my door.

Sorry. :(

--Greg

Today is Tuesday, Dec 15 2009.

The layout has had its delay (mea culpa).
The printer has had his, twice (once in printing late, once in shipping later than promised)

I am told that the books will arrive here tomorrow.
Let us see if UPS is any better at their word.

I will have them out in two days, with all current European orders sent first if it takes two days.
Then we can see if the USPS (and your friendly local post, if outside the US) is good for their word in this busy, mailing season.

I apologize for these delays, beg everyone's patience, and ask you watch here for further news.

They were. The books arrived late yesterday.

Just about all the non-US orders went out of my door about ten minutes ago. The rest of them will go tomorrow, and probably most of the US orders too.

-- Greg, who is as happy as all of you put together

My life has just gotten easier.
Responsibilities fulfilled, AND no more heavy lifting.
My latest work is now out.

All orders have been shipped.

March 26, 2010-- Book of Armies is Out of Print.
