Apologies for my absence. RL threw me a doozy of a time. Won't bore you all with the details of my personal life, but I am now getting on with this!

The site should be back up (no clue what happened there), and I've updated ALL the books, and added an extra one (Elf Quest Book).

Hey, slev is back! Let's order this man a drink! |_P |_P |_P

Seeing the v2 version of the Elf Quest Pack is great. I haven't browsed it thoroughly yet, but I skipped ahead to the last Quest to see how Sinestra's stat line stacks up, and it looks like you've nerfed her - is she really supposed to only defend with 2 dice?? Also, I see you've done away with her gimmick of "does not discard these 9 spell cards when casting"... admittedly, infinite Restore Chaos would make her pretty tough to beat, but she's gonna look pretty gimpy compared to Ahravax when you get back around to him in book 9!

Hey man that board is printed on vinyl I think? Did you have it re-sized so that the squares were 30mm each?

Just catching up, this board is printed by a poster company. It's a laminated board on high grammage paper, and is sized to 40mm squares. It is VERY sweet.

I will make a folding version one day though!

thx!


Just so people know what I'm up to, here's my HQR task list:

1. I found some update notes for the earlier Quest Books that I need to go through. Hope to put the updated version up tomorrow.

2. Finish updating the Dwarf Quest Book (9 maps, 9 sets of advanced game notes), hope to have that out this weekend.

3. Update the Wizard Quest Book, Dark Company, Shadows of Chaos, and Knights of Chaos in that order, all with a fine tooth comb, and produce all the maps for them. Each map takes me 30-60 minutes!

4. Shop together the cards for the Apprentice magic system.

5. three bonus Quest Books, in various stages of planning: Tomb of Chaos, Crown of Blades, Playthings of the Damned.

6. Look at stand-alone releases of my Dwarf and Wizard Quest Packs, in US format.

All good stuff!

This is the first I'm hearing of the 3 "bonus" Quest Packs. Is one of those focused on the "Dark Relics" you developed a few years ago?
