New C&C Logo and graphic vest. ANd many other questions!

Post by mostrojoe »

The logo of Castles & Crusades is changed (in a positive way in my opinion). The double coloured bands are gone and now products seem fully illustrated on the cover. Or is this true only for adventures?

Will the new printings of the main rulebooks have still the double coloured bands?

I have seen a new PHB is on the way thanks to Kickstarter, will this be true even for monsters, classic monsters and CKG?

Some projects to create C&C versions of existing settings (like Mystara or Greyhawk)?

The mass combat system of Fields of Battle will be updated and re-launched coupled with miniatures from other manifacturers (as the paper buildings are supplied by Fat Dragon, why not miniatures supplied from Baccus just to name one of my favourite 6mm producers?)

With the Amazing Adventures impeding debut there will be a Starsiege re-launch too?

Many questions I know :)

No. The PHB will be the first that will have the new format. (Plus colour interiors.)

No. See above.

Yes.

Thanks a lot :) Very good news.

The questions that had not a reply must be taken as questions with a "no" answer or a "let's see" answer? :)

I'll bite on this one:

Since those settings are the intellectual property of WoTC, and as far as I know they have no interest in licensing those settings for other systems, I suspect the answer is "No."

Well, "don't know" is a better option.

Pretty clear.

I want to see more "Fields of Battle" in future.

Hi, all. Been a while.

I wanted to commend the Trolls on the new logo. When I saw it, I automatically thought of the Greyhawk logo, which I'm guessing was the intent.

Keep up the good work!

Mostrojoe, I've heard that Fields of Battle is down to 20 copies. I'm not sure how many were initially printed. From what I've read, it deserves another printing. Although, I'm not sure how it sold.

Fields of Battle suffered by a) coming along right in the middle of the CKG push, and b) during what seemed to be a bit of a transition period for the Trolls. From what Steve has said elsewhere (one of the threads in the Anvil forum, I believe) they are really going to focus on the core game right now, as they feel they need to follow their momentum. Hard to say if Fields of Battle (which I agree is deserving of some love) is going to be part of that.

The CKG is next on the row to take the full color tretament? And the Monsters & Treasures book? For this last one I think it could be the right occasion to make some fixes.
