But I don't think anybody imagined that it would take a year to get the background out. Its a bit like the Northern Ireland peace process what we voted for and what we got where two different things.
Scenario wise I have a couple of things on the brew. But the way
things are structured at the minute it makes it hard to get these
finished. Either there is a danger that they are going to be
completely contradicted or there isn't the information available.
e.g. I could do a couple of Aranwyth based scenarios but is it
worth spending any time on background such as bloolines\steads
etc as we still have no idea what if any of it is going to be effected
in future publications.
Even when the ST and SR are published it is still going to be
difficult to produced community based scenarios because of the
clan generator. This is a _wonderful_ tool for players and Narrators
campaign but it makes it difficult for people trying to produce
scenarios to promote the game.
Using existing material e.g. TR is also problematic as a large
chunks of it was made obsolete by one small boxed paragraph
stating that Orlanth was banned.
The bottom line is we have been asked to produce scenarios to promote HW with little or no guidance while the majority of those with the information, at their fingertips, have remained silent.
