Update February 25, 2011

Greetings,

Here we are another month down in 2011.

We are busy still putting together The Bloodfire Territories. Writing is complete and now we are in the test phase. Artwork and layout is being produced as we speak. Speaking of artwork we are going a new direction with the art. You can check out our new logo and see where we are going. Thank Adam Schmidt for the hard work on the logo and many other art projects. (Shout out to the little dragon behind the skull). Other things we are producing includes tokens for print and Virtual-Table-top play, new rules for movement and artwork for all of the gods in the book. Joe Slucher is leading the charge as the art director for this new project. Mark Charke will be the layout artist (he did The Celestial Gardens). The writing for The Bloodfire Territories was created and produced by Richard Leon and Edited by Jennifer Seiden. Additional writing was produced by Jennifer Seiden with Charles Green Editing. Richard Leon is the owner of Dark Skull Studios and creator of New Gods of Mankind table-top RPG.

If you would like to test out the new material, you can sign an Non-Disclosure Agreement and check it out yourself.

Speaking of testing, we will be using this Virtual Table-Top http://battlegroundsgames.com/ Check it out when you can. It is very easy to pick up.

Another item we are very excited about is the new Miracle/ Conflict Generator!

What is it? Well it is a webpage, done in JavaScript that will make the process of calculating miracles a whole lot easier! The Miracle/ Conflict generator will calculate god miracles, including Nimbus and Possession. Also there will be a dice generator on there and you can add up to 9 different armies on each side of a conflict. If you want to test out what we have please leave us a message on our forum or this website. Chad Schmidt is hard at work making this new project happen.

Our goal is to bring table-top gaming into the 21st century. We still have all the rules in paperback but with the Virtual Table-Top, Tokens, Miracle Generator and the Form Fillable Character Sheets things will be a lot easier.

So you can get to playing the game instead of worrying about a calculation, dice how much belief you have or where your men are.

Overall playing New Gods of Mankind will be a fun experience.  We plan to have at least three releases this year and many more if sales pick up. After The Bloodfire Territories, War on the Plains (in development) and Basic Rules will be released this year. Other adventures might come (and quick too).

Like us on Facebook and get a preview of The Bloodfire Territories! Artwork and some notes will be posted there for your viewing pleasure.

More updates to come and I will blog live from Conjour 2011 in Clear Lake, Texas!
