Apologies for the slight delay in releasing this month’s Iron Crown Enterprises Newsletter. I am currently in the throes of a terrible case of man flu and as such my reasoning is currently at -30 and everything is taking me a lot longer than normal. Despite that, there is plenty of news to be getting on with….
 
Catch up on what you’ve missed with this month’s Director’s Briefing.

 
 
ROLEMASTER
 
This month has seen the official release of the brand new e-support package ERA for Rolemaster.
 
ERA is a multi-functional e-support package with a number of capabilities including:
 

  • Create characters step by step then level them up and update them as your games progress
  • Manage adventures, handle combat, skill resolution, spell casting, resistances, resting and more
  • Watch each character status (hits, pp’s, stun, bleed, penalties) and check skills and spells (including full descriptions) from a smartphone, tablet or laptop.
  • Customise skills, professions, races, cultures, attack tables, criticals, spells and talents and flaws


You can download the online application for free and then improve on the experience by purchasing the data for Rolemaster Classic Spell Law, Arms Law and Character Law. All are available at RPGNow.
 
THE ORDER OF THE IRON CROWN
 
The Order of the Iron Crown is a select group of fans that have made it their mission to promote the play of Iron Crown products at game conventions and in game stores around the world.
 
This month has seen a number of OIC members earning points for running games, reviewing products and writing posts for the Iron Crown Enterprises blog.
 
Once they have enough, members of the Order of the Iron Crown will be able to exchange these points for exclusive merchandise or money off ICE products.

SETTINGS
 
The adventure module ‘Tales from the Green Gryphon Inn’ has now been finished by Terry Amthor and is just awaiting artwork before it is given one final check and then sent to RPGNow ready for sale. We don’t foresee it being much longer until this product hits the shelves so keep an eye on your inbox and we’ll let you know the second it is available.
 
With the adventure module out of the way Terry has now resumed work on Eidolon and Emer II revisions whilst editing a submission on Lethys city in Jaiman and working on his new NE Jaiman module.

 
 
PARTNERS
 
The virtual online gaming table Fantasy grounds is now available on steam.
 
Fantasy Grounds helps you run pen and paper role playing games by performing many of the tasks that occur while playing at a conventional gaming table. Run games as the gamemaster or take part as a player, the application provides all the necessary tools to communicate, manage information and perform tasks such as rolling the dice or creating drawings.
 
FG now has a cheaper entry point for groups looking to try Fantasy Grounds. For just $9.99 a month, a GM can run games for their entire game group and they won’t have to buy a license at all.
 
And Fantasy Grounds is running an online con – FG Con 5. The event kicks off on October 17-19. It’s 24 hours a day and is ran worldwide. It’s been growing each year. Find out more here: www.fg-con.com. ICE hopes to be there next year.
