February 2007 Archives

I know I'm a little late, but I just discovered this show. Start here; then visit their website for all the webisodes. It's amazingly funny.

So, I'm already on the lookout for some products that are set to be released at Gen Con Indy 2007.

Castle Whiterock from Goodman Games. It's a 500-page boxed set for their Dungeon Crawl Classics line. That's about all we know about it, but what more do you need?

I was interested in Necromancer Games' City of Brass boxed set, but it's totally not at the top of my list anymore after Castle Whiterock was announced.

Male blue Telepath 4
CG Small Humanoid (goblinoid, psionic)
Init +0; Senses Listen +1 (+3 when psicrystal is in reach), Spot +1 (+3 when psicrystal is in reach)
Languages Common, Draconic, Elven, Goblin, Orc

So, I'm estimating about 1,000 to 1,500 words per page. At 32 pages, that's an approximate count of 32,000 to 48,000 words.

Publishers have announced a release date for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (a spooky but not altogether satisfying title).

From jkrowling.com:

"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be published on Saturday 21st July 2007 at 00:01 BST in the UK and at 00:01 in the USA. It will also be released at 00:01 BST on Saturday 21st July in other English speaking countries around the world."

Scholastic is pricing the book at $34.99.
