I can’t improve much on how Phil Reed tells it, so I’ll just repost his email: Christopher Shy, the artist for such beautiful products as D20 Call of Cthulhu, Urban Arcana, and Forgotten Realms: City of the Spider Queen has released World of Ronin Arts: Character Portfolio One, a collection

CyberNet thrown on industry by Mongoose
The collection of companies with openly licenced games grows ever larger.

As
Living Room plans Street Fighter, other CAPCOM RPGs
As you can see from the full press release below, Living Room Games has snagged the license to put out tabletop RPGs based on some of the classic CAPCOM video games. This means that sometime next year, we’ll start seeing RPGs for Street Fighter, Darkstalkers, Final Fight, and Rival Schools.
The shadows are coming
The jumpgate is open and the Babylon 5 products are starting to flow out. Mongoose says the first season book, The Coming of Shadows, should be reaching stores in a week or so. While this first season book seems to be focused on Season Two, you’ll meet and greet the
Malhavoc pulls up a chair
Hot off his win as Best Publisher at the ENnies, Monte Cook and Malhavoc Press have created quite a buzz with the alternate Player’s Handbook Arcana Unearthed. With a lion-humanoid PC race, a different selection of classes and magic, and a reorganization of D&D’s basic assumptions as a whole, it
Still time to enter OgreCave’s P3 contest
Just a couple days left to enter our P3 contest, where you can win every d20 supplement Phil Reed currently has to offer. That’s right, every single one. Wait… no, just the 30+ PDF products he’s offering at his site, we’re not offering up his entire personal library. You can’t
Indy HeroClix preview sale at DragonCon
You’ve only got one day left to wait for Indy HeroClix. Well, one day left if you’re going to DragonCon in Atlanta, that is. A limited stash of the new CMG addiction will be available from WizKids at the con, so if you plan to be there, get your starter
New reviews: Snow Witch, Signs, & Buffy
I’m tempted to declare it Matthew Monday due to all the reviews he’s sent in that are up today. First, he tells us about the d20 adaptation of Caverns of the Snow Witch by Myriador Ltd. Then he regales us with the ups and downs of Signs & Portents #1,
Massive Mongoose
The next D&D tome headed out the door at Mongoose Publishing is the Slayer’s Guide to Giants. With the same expanded size as the Guides to Undead and Dragons (128 pages), the new book gives giants the full treatment. Gamemasters can expect to find Half-Giant and Giant King templates, giant
Witchfire Compendium planned by Privateer
Those who got wrapped up in the story of the Iron Kingdoms and the Witchfire Trilogy will love hearing this: Privateer Press plans to compile all three adventure volumes into one hardcover book, updated for D&D v3.5. The compilation will come complete with two “interludes” that connect the books, the
Creepy Freaks creep ever closer
Another Creepy Freaks preview figure is on display at the WizKids site. This time we get a look at Patches, a demented zombie teddy bear straight out of Akira. Of the figures we’ve seen so far, I prefer Jar Head. Can’t go wrong with a brain in a jar.
More Ultimate Prestige on the way
As Mongoose Publishing has informed its mailing list, the next volume in the Supplementary Rulebook line is on the way (but aren’t all third party D&D supplements “supplementary rulebooks”? Never mind…). Ultimate Prestige Classes II will pull together another 256 pages of classes from more than 45 sources, all expanded

You like winning free stuff, right? Then have a look at our new contest, Phil’s Plethora of PDFs, which comes to us compliments of popular game designer Phil Reed. You know all those nifty downloadable products he’s got on his site? You could win all of ’em. Yep, every single
Gen Con ’04 date in flux
The Gen Con website has a poll up that should interest anyone who’s even remotely considering attending next year. It seems that a major NASCAR race, the Brickyard 400, has changed its dates to the originally proposed dates for Gen Con ’04. While the convention space itself wouldn’t be affected,
Cyber-Gorilla my dreams
Atlas Games reports that the new Feng Shui sourcebook, Gorilla Warfare, is now available. The book comes with a Phil Collins soundtrack, and Rosie O’Donnell lends her voice to… okay, no, too much Disney movies with the little one showing through there. The cyborg simians, also known as the Jammers,
