Mentalism Companion and Fire & Ice are now scheduled for release. We put the Addendum material into Fire & Ice as an addendum - thus when Fire & Ice goes to print-on-demand, you will be able to get hardcopy of all the material in one volume.

Best wishes,
Nicholas

Will the Addendum still be available separately, or will those who already have Fire & Ice, but not the Addendum have to buy the whole book again to get that material?

We will "quietly" put up the Addendum, i.e. I will backdate the release date and so forth so that it is not visible on the front page of RPGNow etc.. I don't want people buying the GCP edition of Fire & Ice and then unnecessarily buying the Addendum. It is unlikely that the Addendum will get any fancy treatment prior to going up as the rebranding programme has now switched to working through the Spacemaster: Privateers line.  Then the rebranding programme will come back to Rolemaster to bring back Channeling Companion, Arcane Companion, School of Hard Knocks, ...

Also the Addendum will not go into print-on-demand on its own. It's too small.

Looking forward to getting this. Even better if the Addendum material is fully integrated into the rest of the text, but I expect that might be a lot of work for the amount of sales expected.

Spacemaster; Privateers line is in progress. After that it is Arcane Companion, Channeling Companion and School of Hard Knocks (not necessarily in that order though).

Arcane Companion has never been released in RMFRP trade dress IIRC. Will it be redone graphically to fit the RMFRP line?

It is unlikely that we will change the trade dress for Arcane Companion. Our layout gurus will have enough grief with missing fonts - Arcane Companion is from an era of far too many esoteric fonts being used, software packages that did not save the fonts into output files, and archives where the fonts were not saved properly.

FYI--the RMFRP PDF files are starting to hit the RPG Now website.

Arcane Companion is back as a scanned but searchable pdf. If we can find a better scan or can repair the archives, we will replace the file.
