Ganesha to publish Song of Arthur and Merlin

The Once and Future King comes to Song of Blades*

Arthurian author/wargamer Daniel Mersey (who, among other things, collaborated on the Warhammer Age of Arthur book and wrote the Glutter of Ravens rules) and Ganesha Games have agreed on publishing a Song of Arthur and Merlin supplement for Song of Blades and Heroes. Daniel has already written an outline of the book which has been greenlighted. For more about Daniel, visit http://www.freewebs.com/merseybooks/

The book will feature three playable versions of the Arthurian myth: a Dark Age historical Arthur, the Arthur of Welsh myth, and the Arthur of Hollywood. The major characters, magic items and creatures will all be featured. The book will be about 40 pages, illustrated by Andrea Sfiligoi (who will also act as rules supervisor) and will likely be on sale as a pdf for $9 and as a print-on-demand book through www.lulu.com/songofblades.
Note that this will be an official Song of Blades supplement, not a stand alone book... Ideally this should be in the e-shops for Christmas.

Andrea gets interviewed at Origins

just a relaxed chat I had with Clyde L.Roher of Theory from the Closet
podcast. Being an RPG podcast, there is a lot of talk about Familiars, but
SBH and other stuff is discussed as well. Warning: I speak with a
recognizable Italian accent, I hope it's not tiring to listen to that for
such a long interview...

See you at Origins 2008!

A quick note to confirm that Ganesha Games will be at Origins 2008 in Columbus, Ohio, USA at the Origins Games Fair at the end of June. You'll find me running demos of Song of Blades and Heroes and Mutants and Death Ray Guns in the miniature hall. If you bring a USB pen or removable hard disk, you'll be able to buy PDF versions of the games straight from me.

Make sure you attend, play a demo and please vote for SBH in the Best Miniature Rules category!
