Good info. Do you envision deluxe versions for releases too or just this first group? Or is that as yet undecided?

Areas of interest/knowledge: Harn, Pendragon, WFRP, Ars Magica, anything BRP based, CoC, Runequest

Planning: BRP/Harn

I really dig that new cover for Snakeriders! Just started running that module for my kids.

We will likely do deluxe versions of all adventures and sourcebooks (but not anthologies or rule sets - if we do any) but allow me to assure one and all: They will only be in addition to the Standard Versions, never in place thereof.

I was really impressed by Mr.Wampler's ability to depict Tim's story myself. Let's just say I needed little convincing to adopt the new cover.

...and I will announce here when the deluxe versions are done, as they will be in strictly limited supply. If our website is functional by then, there will be a link as well.

1) If you got the original print version at Gary Con, its going to be collectible.
2) The new cover is now what you get if you order either the pdf or the soon-to-be-available print copy.

I did the original, but I like this one better. A LOT better. Our hugest thanks to Jim Wampler.

Toric! By the way.... If you have one of the print copies (with the original not-as-good-cover), those will be very rare. Only 100 were produced, and we will not be re-printing that original cover.

Short form: Those original 100 copies are going to be highly collectible.

Sadly no, I only have the first five releases in pdf form. Didn't make it to Gary Con. I am however attending North Texas RPG Convention next weekend and hoping to score a print copy or two if Frank, Tim or Jim have any in hand.

Tim shipped some of each title to the show this week... how many I can't vouch for, but there will be copies of all four at the show. I think the Snakeriders he sent have the original cover.

We are still having a few problems getting everything right (correct) with the printer on the first four adventures. Don't hate me but Heroes and Magic (the anthology) is available in print, likely because it lacks interior art.

There should be more news early this coming week, but this is not as yet bird-in-the-hand. It is quite definitely our top priority.

Now available in print and PDF formats:

The premiere products of Eldritch Enterprises Ltd.

Jim Ward: Dark Outpost

Space station in orbit, built by robots and crewed by automated machines.
But something has gone wrong. Beware: High fatality rating.

Frank Mentzer: Lich Dungeon (Level 1)
It rises from the 1970s... old school in classic form.
More than a few laughs mixed with the usual suspects and their treasure.

Tim Kask: Snakeriders of the Aradondo
It's a jungle out there... literally. Snakes the size of nightmares.
And amazingly, the whole thing will plug into your campaign.

Chris Clark: Forest of Deceit
An old school setting for low-level characters. Carefully blends all the
classic elements: roles, combat, treasure, plot, and sandbox.

And all four: Fiction Anthology Heroes and Magic

I'm due for proofs on two of the deluxe editions this Friday. That is NOT bird-in-the-hand yet, so stay a bit chilly on that... but y'all here will be the second to know once they exist.

...I might post it on the EE website first, but I'll certainly cross-post it here.

No Deluxe/Collectors' editions as yet.

However:

Looks very much like we'll have EE products at GenCon.
Bill Barsh's OSR booth (# 1359, near the back, between Authors and Entrepreneurs)

Should be delivered around Thurs noon or earlier.

I can confirm... all five of the standard products will be available at Gen Con.

Still struggling with ome problems ob the Author's/Deluxe Ediions. I wil likely experiment with Dark Outpost as an Author's Edition first. Don't hate me for that (its just the easeiest one to do).

Other than that, we are working on a new series of products, while I tinker with the problems we found in the other author's editions.

It will likely be a bit on those - blame me, not anyone else. SO... no solid timetable, at least from me, on those as yet.

I've just reviewed 13 emails on the latest update. Just curious as to whether that is correct?

Can you offer some details... like who they're from and what they're saying?

Sounds like an auto-email glitch on somebody's part, tho...
