Title: Any Rolemaster updates?

Anyone have the inside scoop on Rolemaster?  I haven't heard about them for ages, nor the beta of the new edition.

They've been working on it, it's going slow.  Eight years ago when I was involved in the early beta discussions, the management wanted it out within the year.  ICE's got their website back up.  Really, I think HARP is their higher priority.  After all, RM2 and RMSS pdfs can be sold, as can new Shadow World content.  There's really a strong chance that the new edition won't unite the fans and will just further divide them.

Last report was that they had the "Rolemaster Unified" Arms Law & Character Law edited and in pretty firm shape, and were moving on to Spell Law.

I wonder how much of their thunder is going to get stolen by Against the Darkmaster.
