I got the Imperial Town of Tell Qa at the Free RPG Day festivities.

   It bodes well for future publications by AGP...and would seem to rate a scan and description in the JG subweb.

   This is the kind of game supplement that a GM looks for.  Particularly nice is the town map included in the center of the publication.  This format allows a GM to actually use a town map, rather than just look at it on page 237.  

    Seldom have 16 pages of text, map, explanation and legal stuff been so well put to use.

    Good job, James!  I could use 16 more just like it.

Thanks Mark! Glad you liked it!

I tried to make the map as useful as possible, while also making sure it looked good... like the classic CSIO map of old.

By all means, let me know if you have any questions or other feedback for this product.

I've got further plans for Tell Qa, yet. I will have a special, limited-edition product, tentatively titled "XXXI", for Gen Con. This will include:

1) Tell Qa, as found in the Free RPG Edition, edited a bit and maybe expanded slightly... essentially the same but with art;

2) An general encounter chart tailored for Tell Qa, to supplement the street encounters; maybe (if room permits), a street peddler chart, complete with wares and prices.

3) The Mycretian class for Castles & Crusades, along with some history of the Mycretians in the Wilderlands of High Adventure, info on their One God, Mycr, their holy texts, goals, and so forth;

4) Maybe a few more bits, if space permits.

It will be 32 or 36 pages long. I was originally going to have a full-color cover, but the time frame for that is too short, so that will have to wait...

"XXXI" will be limited to 310 copies. Why "XXXI" and only 310? Well, 2007 will be the 31st year since Judges Guild premiered at Gen Con with the City State of the Invincible Overlord, so I want to do something special.

There might be something else special at Gen Con, I don't wanna say yet because I'm not sure myself if I can get it done and printed in time...

Later, an unlimited, 56-page expanded version of Tell Qa will be available through retailers.

Slowly reading this.. is great work, course now if you'll only keep writing

I only had a quick look, but it looked good.  My retailer had a 1 item limit, so I went with 51.5 Whiterock instead, but Qa would have been my 2nd choice.

Gah! Dammit, Mark, thanks for reminding me!

I meant to include "Map may be photocopied for personal use" on the map.

Hmm... maybe I'll include a Player's Map of Tell Qa in XXXI. Would anyone mind, really, if the center 4-pages were able to be pulled out, say, with the center spread being the Judges Map, and on the opposite side the Player's Map, ready to be photocopied? Hmmm...

Hey, James:

Anything new to share about your Tell Qa project?

We who shall be far from GenCon are curious indeed.

Mark

This looks great, any idea how I can get a copy?

Well, eBay, of course.

That price is for the "rubes"...any Acaeum member contact me privately if they are interested in the Free game day Tell Qa.  As for the other item available at Gencon, XXXI, I'm going to try to pick up what I can depending on the price....going by the free version, it's going to be a great product and I'm going to pick up at least a couple for my own use.

i actually wouldnt mind one mike, but would also like the full/real deal too.
