Hardcopy of Green Gryphon Inn has passed the OBS tests and a proof is on the way to me! Also, doing edits and finishing layouts on the massive Eidolon revision. 40,000 more words! Did you ever wonder about the Sel-kai mail system? Crave more information about how the flying city works? Curious about city personalities the PCs might run into? All this, several new adventures and more in the new edition...

Formatting tables of RMSS stats in Eidolon, and cataloging all the old ICE books I want to sell off. More on that soon!

Oh and then on to... RMU (queue ominous music)

The hardcopy for Tales from the Green Gryphon Inn is now available! (Note that only the perfect-bound version is available; the 84 page-count is not high enough for hardback/casebound.) Green Gryphon Inn

Doing final correx on Eidolon. Who has not gotten Emer III yet? There is trade between SE Emer and Eidolon/Sel-kai

It has gotten some very flattering reviews on RPGNow...

"...From here, the book moves into an extremely detailed look at the region’s climate, geography, flora, fauna, and inhabitants. Funny enough, I could have sworn this section was written by a climatologist and geographer, or a general scholar of those items. I was floored by the amount of information, but better yet, how plausible, believable, and realistic it seemed...."

Purchase Emer III

There was a joke in the industry about ICE in the late 80's and early 90's: "If ICE was getting into a genre, it is officially dead."

Of course with the solo adventure books, that was not our fault: we were screwed over by the lawyers and Tolkien estate with books rights. Now about some others, like Cyberspace, I might agree...

How true: Hardly anything at all's happened with Lord of the Rings ever since ICE had their hands on it...

One last round of discounts on some of my old books! Sadly if no buys for some of these I will have to chuck them.

Extremely rare, really. Some never seem to appear for outside the US, even delivered from the US.

Eidolon is finally done and in production. I have so many things on my plate, including editing some interesting submissions, working on Artifacts, and Wuliris, and of course revisions of Emer I and II, and Haalkitaine, with greatly expanded information.

More coffee please.

EXCELLENT!

These 'submissions' you speak of....  Can you tell us the realms they are covering?

Thanks,

I think they are the Lethys sourcebook (Jaiman) and the adventure Priest-King of Shade (can't remember where, I think it's written somewhere, but if I remember correctly, not in Jaiman or Emer).
