War of the Dead; Continuing?

[JohnD]

Does anyone know if there are plans to continue these releases?

[damned]

Sorry for the delay - yes.

[JohnD]

Thank you!

[damned]

Im working on it right now JohnD - Grrrrrr Arrrrgghhh!

[Skellan]

Cool - my group is about halfway through chapter one. I will certainly get chapter 2 if it saves me the hassle of building it myself :D

[damned]

We have made a good start on this and will update in a few days.

[JohnD]

Chapter 1 - Images - W03A2S2 - A Wolf in Sheeps Clothing Map: opens a blank image and spelling of Sheeps should be Sheep's.

Chapter 1 - Images - W04A3S1 - Ship - Deck: map has two blank pins in addition to the completed encounter pin in upper right corner.

I notice the original came out in 2010.... it's been a long time since releases.... which concerns me in regards to buying it....

Yeah, you'll probably end up building the later stages of the campaign, however, I think the base War of The Dead package is really good value as it gives you all the setting rules, maps and tokens along with getting you started on the first chapter.

What's your concern exactly?

[JohnD]

Where is the best place to post anything I notice that might need to be fixed (as my above two items)?

[JohnD]

Also wanted to add some public recognition; Hendell spent three hours online with me last night going over WotD and SW in general. The time passed like nothing, even with two kittens climbing all over my keyboard and trying to catch the mouse cursor and the dice on the screen (exploding dice were popular).

[Mask_of_winter]

That's as good a place as any. I'll have to update the theme for FG 3.2 so might as well fix what needs fix. For Chapter 2 the Shamblers will have a Fighting skill of d4-2 btw, so that you guys can use the targeting feature.

What's your concern exactly?

S'all good. I figured it out with Danger's help.

I thought that only the first chapters had actually been written back in 2010 and it was being worked on any more. Turns out I was wrong. The entire series has been written but only the first module is available in FG.

Danger responded to a personal email with:

"The whole series is published outside of FG.
Weeks 1-13 are in the FG Store and weeks 14-26 are about 60% done."

So - that fairly much clarifies everything for me.

Tis all honkey dorey.

[Mask_of_winter]

That Danger guy sounds like a pretty cool lad!

[bigsiegee]

Don't tell him, he'll get a big head.

He DM'd for me the other night. We got to chase a Grey Man for 3 odd hours. My first DM experience and it was quite enjoyable

I bought the Savage Worlds core just so I could GM War of the Dead - so it is good to know that the second group of chapters is nearing completion. This will be my 2017 new year campaign and hopefully 3 of 4 will be done by then since I don't enjoy conversions :)

[JohnD]

So, with the vast plethora of issues to be fixed, added and corrected across a multitude of SW products, I almost hesitate to ask....

August 2016 - April 2017 = 9-ish months. Still waiting for the next installment to reanimate or is it no longer in the pipeline?
