I've got a guy I promised the job.  Send me a PM with your address, though and I'll look at your portfolio.  I a poor publisher, just to warn you.  :)

No worries Rob, it doesn't do well to break promises :)
If you have look in your complimentary copies of The Guild Adventurer you will see my interiors, of which I have also illustrated for your adventures ;) If you want to see my latest paintings click on my name in my signature(should have a new one posted this week). If EoH has a Facebook page let me no and I'll add you to it, it has most of my art on it. I'll send my email address via PM.

Oh yeah, I'm a poor artist too ;D

Yeah, he's this phenomenal local artist.  Worked for years for Hero Games and Paladium.  I see him on all the cons and he did a lot of the critical matters art.  He e-mailed me about five months ago and asked if he could help with product 5.  I told him an artist looked to be going awol, and he could have her art if I had to give up on her.  :)

If you can score a local artist that's a bonus for you, being able to communicate face to face has great potential. If your current artist pikes out on you then perhaps it's for the better if you can get this new guy. Anyway, hope it all goes well for you, just keep my name in your files case you need a help out in the future.

That is very possible.  I had to hire a new artist.  I just got the contracts back.

Hi,

Just saw Tournament I on rpgnow, but nothing on it on your website and also it is D&D only.

Any plans to have it also for HARP/RM? Any news on book 5?

Book five is now completely written (meaning I've finished statting it for every version, the last part had to be basically rewritten for every system, so when I said the first draft was done, that didn't include doing the rules chapter for all the different systems).  I have most of the art in, one of the artists vanished completely and I had to hire a new artist to do all their stuff.  I'd have the HERO version turned in for approval by now, but the HERO license expired and a new edition came out, so we have to work out the new details of the contract.

I can't imagine that a tournament version for HARP/RM would sell any copies.  The tournament version is just a slightly stripped version of the normal adventure, with scoring, so it's not like you're really losing anything.  I actually did it early 2009 for a local store and it was just sitting around, so there was no reason not to throw it up.  I'll probably put in the the Final Redoubt site sometime next week.

I plan on blogging all the updates soon.  Honest.

Well, I'm planning a HUGE quest 'round Echoes since I saw it before holydays. Since it will begin on December or even next year I'm calm on the lack of news. I can run smoothly all the edited part for, lets say 2 years? And we will play some other settings in-between, so I can ever linger on it  ;D

But, any news would help keep the spirits high, don't ??

I'm still working on it.  I got a job, which is good from a "paying for the book" perspective.  I don't have a lot of time with the new job, which is the downside.  I'm still working on it, I just have to choose between the playtest and the product on any given week and so I don't get to work on it when I prepping a playtest.  One of the playtests ended, however, which will help.  (By ended I mean they finished the 10th adventure).

I'm serious about the bit about letting me know if you start catching up with me.  Often (especially with the adventure seeds), I have material that I could show you to keep you afloat if you can give me enough lead time to get it to you.  Just send a PM.  You guys are my core group of heroes.

In this account I have a question. My group of players are obsessed about getting to Ingrast. They are a bunch of proud elves that has been shocked about how the Mortal Realm works compared to Heaven. They seek solitude in the Elven empire based on the logic that Elves live longer and therefore that is just a few generations from the Sundering to current day. So my question is rather, do you have any further material on Ingrast ?

Also best of luck to you and I'm really looking forward to adventure 5.
