>here's a weighty matter:

I pronounce it the same as the "j" in jury, i.e. I add a "u" sound in
between
the "J" and the "R", ju-ru-stela and ju-ru-steli. Of course I pronounced
Cthulhu wrong for the longest time.
Sergio wonders about Peter Metcalfe:

I can vouch for him having met Peter but then you've never met me have you?;->

Seconded. This would make any new game much more accessible to all players and it would be nice to know things like what a culture wears, what are their favorite colors, etc. Some key myths and a calendar of yearly events would be nice too. Considering the amount of work that's been done on various regions this sort of work could be farmed out. I'd like to see the following regions:
Prax
Sartar
Peloria
Ralios
Kralorela
Pent
Grazers
I know a lot of stuff has already been published on some of these areas but it'd be nice to see a 80-120 page bound book following Nick's guidelines with the key details all in one place. RQ and Glorantha has to be one of the worst systems and worlds for having rule snippets and background scattered hither and yon. (And don't bother flaming me 'cause its my opinion and I own around 40 role playing systems so I consider myself fairly knowledgeable in that area).
I like maps too.
