Post by Troll Lord »

TLG 8509 Bluffside City on the Edge
Adventure, 120 pages (estimated), Perfect Bound
ISBN: 978-1-936822-56-0


Bluffside: City on the Edge Civilization is still picking up the pieces following an asteroid strike two hundred thousand years ago. The epicenter? Bluffside. Only 208 years after its rediscovery, Bluffside is a boom town boasting the most precious metal in the known world - adamantine. From the ancient ruins of Sem La Vah, to the vast Undercity, to the floating port of Sordadon, Bluffside: City on the Edge promises to become the home port for thousands of adventurers. Used as a stand alone city, or combined with other sourcebooks, thereby creating a modular world one great area at a time.

We are lining up cover artist Jason Walton of Myriad Studios to bring the City on the Edge back to life!

FREE ADVENTURE

Right Under Our Noses brings you face to face with the legendary city of Bluffside! Converted by Hal Greenberg, Derrick Landwehr and Peter J. Schroeder for Castles & Crusades Right Under Our Noses is the perfect teaser for what's to come. Written for the classic d20 system in the days of yore Bluffside City on the Edge was an instant classic. So while you are waiting for that, take a look at what ou are in store for!

Right Under Our Noses is a short 1-2 night adventure designed for a party of four 4th level characters, and is set in the Bluffside Campaign Setting. This adventure features locations and NPCs which are detailed in the Bluffside: City on the Edge sourcebook. It takes place in and around an old sewer dumping station controlled by shady steam gnomes. They have disturbed a delicate ecological balance and the results are now affecting others as a horrid stench is sickening people in the streets above. The party investigates the issue, only to find the gnomes have bitten off more than they can chew, and it is up to our heroes to find a solution.

COMING SOON!

Its DLing as 0 bytes of information from RPGNow.
Since its 20,000 I suggest "Captain Nemo" as his title. Beyond the obvious connection, he is one who sails on his own terms and ignores those he doesn't agree with...confident in his journey and goals.

Considering how Celtarum and Rune Lore are going? I am guessing that Troll Time puts the release for this at the end of April or beginning of May. If we're lucky.

Ya never know but I like to push them when I can, and it should not be that close ( I am assuming) I do not know how the art is going so I am hoping GenCon or before since I am going to GC and would love to pitch it there.

Keep an eye on the SBC site, Peter, who is our Project Lead for C&C will be running a Samurai Sheepdog adventure, in fact that may be the debut.

Greetings,

We rolled this Bluffside out at Gencon and it was the first time I was able to take a good hard look at the book in print format.

When I look at this guy, the awesome cover, the amazing maps and the content I cannot help but want to treat this in the same fashion as we did Free City of Eskadia. It needs to be a hardback.

So in the next day or so you'll see us launch an internal pre-order on the book with the aim to hit a 4k goal. It will be much in the same vein of Free City of Eskadia.

If you preorder you'll get the book and maps immediately in Digital formats. Then as soon as we hit our market we'll send the book to print, so the hardcover should roll out pretty quickly.

More coming.

Thanks,
Steve
