Hi Everyone, I have recently entered into a period of Federal Service through the VISTA program, working with the continuing effort to assist the recovery from the devastation caused by Hurricane Irene in Schoharie. Part of the conditions of my tenure prohibit outside income, as such, I am halting all sales of Dragons at Dawn, The Book of Elder Magic, and related items. Kickstarter pre-orders for Champions of ZED are not affected and will go forward as planned. Apologies if this inconveniences anyone, but I beleive this opportunity to help my neighbors in an official capacity is a bit more important than a few gamebooks. Sales will resume as normal when my service is finished, but I may well take the opportunity to create a revision of Dragons at Dawn.  |

Ah, the instant collector's item. Now you can take your extra stockpile of D@D and sell them for top dollar!  Actually, with all of the new material in BTPBD maybe a revised D@D would be a good thing. If you want some assistance with layout, etc., you know where you can find me. |

Is this through Americorp? Sounds like a worthy endeavor.

To bad. I would love to get myself a copy . . .
I'll have to keep my ear to the ground to hear about it when it starts selling again.
Good luck to you and the cause.

So I've searched high and low and can't find my paper copy of D@D. Any idea if/when we'll get another shot at it? (I guess I could just print my PDF, but it's just not the same.)

I've become interested in reading Dragons at Dawn in the last couple of days.
Is the PDF likely to be made available for purchase again sometime? (It does not seem to be available now as far as I can tell.)
Cheers!

(It does not seem to be available now as far as I can tell.) Cheers! Sometime, yes. It's my intention to prepare a revision, incorporating some information gathered since the initial release, particularly as regards the apparent combat system in use as indicated by original Blackmoor player Peter Gaylord's character sheet. While it's not a huge amount of work, there's a bit too much on my plate to contemplate doing so for some time, RL being what it is. |

No chance you could make the original release available again? I'd be happy to latter get (and pay) for the revised version!

No. It will be at least a year, perhaps longer, before that project will be ready.

Well, I wouldn't say there are any problems. per se, it is just that I have limited time and other irons in the fire. Also, there are other avenues of research bearing fruit that may help improve the revision, so it is better to let it perk.

Any updates? I'd still buy this thing in a heartbeat So you have probably heard now about the documentary link and this is one of the things I've been hinting about regarding new information and insights coming to the fore regarding early Blackmoor. Sooo, while all this is in development there will be no new version of D@D released, but eventually.... |
