Plan for Edward Gardner
by Edward Gardner · 02/02/2005 (3:13 pm) · 5 comments
So, in preparation for releasing the d20 Future Campaign Setting, we have been working on a short tabletop conversion of Lore.
The plan is to give this away to registered users as a way to increase awareness for the RPG launch later this year.
Here's the front cover (not final), original artwork by Nauris Krause:
And the back cover, which you may recognize as fantastic Logan Foster creative work, figured we should show the world a little of Lore itself:
We'll probably sell it as a 5 dollar supplement to the RPG. Exciting stuff. We have a printer, a distributor, and a mostly finished product.
We also have this 30 page Lore conversion and all the appropriate seals of approval from Wizards.
Cool, eh?

I think we have something reasonably fun, it was a challenge to emulate the Lore experience on the tabletop using the d20 Future/Modern rules, I think we succeeded.
We'll be releasing OpenRPG assets and a sample scenario with the booklet, probably just before the actual RPG launch.
Still have to coodinate all the moving parts of the RPG launch, see my previous .plans for details on what that was looking like at least as of GenCon :)
Buy a copy of Lore to make sure you get your Lore booklet and be on the lookout for more old school RPG news in the very near future :)

We've been working on this piece for a couple months now, as the actual RPG came together.I think we have something reasonably fun, it was a challenge to emulate the Lore experience on the tabletop using the d20 Future/Modern rules, I think we succeeded.
