SHORT AND SWEET TO THE SOUL I INTEND
< May 16, 2008
We’re slowly but surely working our way up to the main stage of the summer convention season (see below), and that means lots of work. Andy should be sending me layouts for The Atlantean Age Any Day Now, and I’ve received the bulk of the art for Monster Island from Cryptic so I can finish that fine tome. While waiting for the art I’ve been plinking away at The Book Of The Destroyer, writing up some of his villains and details about his background and personal history.
Product Highlight: Cops, Crews, And Cabals
In my not-so-humble opinion, one of the best books we published over the past year or so was Cops, Crews, And Cabals, a compilation of small organizations for Champions that’s just chock-full of campaign color, character ideas, and plot seeds. If you haven’t gotten a copy yet, you don’t know what you’re missing! ;) Check it out here:
