Iadace and welcome to this week’s edition of The Cypher Chronicles! 2015 has been wonderful thus far for Team MCG and we hope it has also treated you very well.
PRODUCT NEWS
- Have you heard the good news? Some shuffling of the production schedule for the Exclusive Numenera Boxed Set Edition is allowing us to take a few additional orders for THE RELIQUARY–for a VERY limited time. If you missed this incredible Kickstarter campaign, there’s one more brief chance to get on board!
- Looking for a new RPG to play in 2015? Check out DriveThruRPG’s The Strange NYNG (New Year New Game) Bundle. DriveThruRPG is encouraging everyone to try a new tabletop roleplaying game in 2015, so they are offering a selection of popular RPGs at 20% off. If you’ve been thinking about picking up The Strange, now’s a great time to do it!
- And remember, Ninth World Guidebook is still available for pre-order, but pre-ordering ends soon. You can also download the free preview to see just what we have in store for you with this beautiful book!
OTHER EXCITING THINGS
- We recently launched NaNewGaMo — (Inter) National New Gamemasters Month! Learn how to go from being a player to being a GM throughout the month of January. We started the program at the beginning of the week, but it’s never too late join in!
- Did you hear that Game Informer named The Strange one their favorite RPGs of 2014? We can’t help but agree!
-
Sprechen sie Deutsch? Then check out the crowd funding campaign by our German licensee Uhrwerk Verlag to translate Numenera into German. The campaign ends January 10th.
