Dear Dread,

To answer your questions, none of which violate the Great Compromise:

Q1) Title: We are still working on the exact title. It may end up being called "Heroquest: Questworlds Core Rulebook", buto more on that soon. Regardless, there's just going to be one rulebook for Heroquest and Questworlds.

Q2) Format: 8.5" x 11", color cover, 64 to 96 pages. It's just the rules (revised), plus tips on gm'ing, designing worlds, etc. It's going to cost far less than $39.95 (current HQ rules price) as well.

Q3) Artwork: Yes, almost all of the artwork will be new.

Q4) Glorantha.com getting updated: Yes, this is in the works, but getting books published is more important. Still, doing some updates is close at hand.

Q5) What's being revised: That will be announced soon, but "the math" getting cleaned up and simplified is one of the biggies. So are augments, group combat, missile combat, etc. More examples too.

Hope that helps,
Rick Meints
