A ce propos,
Est-ce que quelqu'un aurait des infos sur une eventuelle date de sortie du
"Gloranthan Classics Volume IV" ?
Je l'attend avec impatience.

>First of all, UW is returning to its original concept, a
>(semi) regular magazine rather than standalone books. We loved
>producing such works as Sons of Kargzant and In Wintertop's
>Shadow, but not only do they raise thornier IP issues but they
>also require a disproportionate commitment of time, time which

>to a magazine format, we can ensure a more timely production
>schedule and also put out much of the great material we have
>which might otherwise languish for too long if awaiting its own book.
>
>It also means we can be a little more eclectic, covering not
>just mainstream Glorantha, but other uses of the HeroQuest
>system including, needless to say, Mythic Russia!
>
>Secondly, we are shifting to PDF rather than print format.
>This will allow us to be more flexible in terms of the size of
>individual products and also, joy of joys, to be able to use
>colour throughout, something we would love to have been able
>to do in our print books but which would have been
>outrageously expensive. We do appreciate that many people --
>ourselves included -- enjoy the tactile pleasures of an actual
>rather than virtual product, so we will be selling our
>products through a PDF house which also offers a reasonably
>priced print-on-demand service, too. Full details will be
>announced as soon as arrangements and negotiations are concluded.
>
>Of course, those of you who are still in credit with UW will
>not lose out, and we will be contacting you in due course with
>information on how this will be handled.
>
>We will be letting people know about the first issue of the
>new format UW as soon as possible through our news yahoogroup
>(Unspoken- Word-News), as well as details of the PDF house we
>will be using.
>Likewise, we are looking to some exciting extensions of old
>lines and new ones, too, so keep listening for more Unspoken
>Words! All in all, we are looking forward to exploring
>Glorantha and beyond in this new age for HeroQuest.
