Not a single entry!!!! I had like $900 of Pathfinder books, a bunch of them signed by their authors (freelancers and Paizo staff alike) that I was giving away.

So disappointed by that. Ah well, more game books for me.


Nah, you don't need those. Just ship them to my house. Smile

Not quite a review, but looks like Wolfgang has a post up at Black Gate.

Yep, I like the Black Gate folks, they do good stuff. So I was flattered when they asked for a post about Midgard.

Know Direction 51 has an interview with Wolfgang Baur and Brandon Hodge. Among other things, we learn that the first printing of the hardback is selling out fast...

Which begs the question: Will there be a second printing?

That is an excellent question, and I wish I knew the answer. Right now, the reorders from distributors have not come in yet, so all I can say is "maybe, but maybe not."

The reprint would not happen until the spring of 2013 in any event.

The gnome in chief liked it.

(As does this gnome in training).

That review has me walking on air. Martin does not review things often, but when he does, it's usually because he cares enough to really dig at something and explain what he likes and dislikes about a particular game.

I think he liked this one, indeed. (Oh, and the second comment made me LOL, nice response Troy).

My goodness, the whole Baba Yaga / gnome storyline is just one of those rich surprises that makes this setting one of mystery. (So, you think you know gnomes, do you?) I imagine, the gnome storyline developed, in part, because of 4E putting gnomes in the monster category. Regardless, an adventure arc based around gnomes can go so many ways, from hijinks to horror (though my inclination, is horror, with the whole gnome homeland like a Procustes inn for the unwary).

Nerdtreck.com has put the Midgard Campaign Setting (as well as the PF Beginners Box and Rise of the Drow) on their 2012 "Top Ten Gifts for Nerds" List! Cool
