This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

What single gaming product are you most anticipating?

T5 right now seems to be my biggest one.

Was that percentage chart in the first half?  If so, I could probably make that work.

Yes.  When people ask what they need to Classic Traveller, I tell them Books 1-3 and Citizens of the Imperium.  The expanded character generation and other things in those books isn't necessary.

I was going to say that I'm not really looking forward to anything but, yes, I'm looking forward to T5 and hope Marc Miller learns the lessons of T4.  And I also hope he gets some artwork that looks like traditional Traveller artwork.  The Foss art never looked like Traveller to me (yes, I know others disagree).

I don't beleive that this site doesn't have a wave smiley.

Anyway, I love Foss' art and think his ironmongery look is very fitting with the feel of the setting. I would agree it doesn't look much like that of the previous Travellers, but don't think that's much of a concern given that it was supposed to be set in Mileu 0, not the 1100 timeframe. That's a lot of time for things to change.

I want Mythic Russia, which was supposed to be out at the end of July, but which I haven't seen available yet.

Psion/Scion/?? From White-Wolf. It sounds like a Modern Exalted. Hopefully they'll put Greg Stolze on the project, as modern weird seems to be his forte'.
