• d20: Ptolus - Monte Cook's City by the Spire - NEW TITLE/PACKAGE - due to become available c. 11th August 2006 ukL 64.99
  advertised due to contain:
  a] a 672pp full-colour hardcover with textured, embossed cover by Chesley Award-winning Todd Lockwood, 3 bound-in fabric bookmarks & 4 perforated card bookmarks, in which is detailed the entire city of Ptolus, from description of the lowest dungeon to the very spire itself, plus extensive adventure material and advice on running an urban fantasy rpg campaign, with over illustrations by Jason Engle, Macie Zagorski & Pawel Dobosz (The Forge Studio), Michael Komarck, Eric Lofgren, Howard Lyon, Michael Phillippi, plus more than 50 pages of Maps by Ed Bourelle; indexed and cross-referenced throughout;
  b] 8 full-colour & 16 b+w loose sheet player & dm aids, & adventure handouts plus a double-sided, full-colour poster map of the City of Ptolus, and of The Spire, by Ed Bourelle;
  c] CD-Rom that includes complete PDF editions of The Banewarrens & Chaositech, both based in Ptolus, and of the New Ptolus Adventure, The Night of Dissolution; a 32pp Player's Guide to Ptolus, and a detailed Conversion Guide for fans & users of Monte Cook's Arcana Evolved
  d] free 96pp printed copy of the New Ptolus Adventure, The Night of Dissolution (this may be for pre-ordered "Ptoli" only);
  e] customer access to the exclusive "Delver's Guild" website (no further information/details given)
  if it lives up to that outline description, Ptolus could provide a lifetime's adventuring on its own (well, with an rpg system plus rpg-playing friends, etc. :-) ). i suspect that it's rather too great to be fully comprehended in a single reading (or even two or three), so you may be exploring its ramificatory alleys, corridors & dungeons, its contents, inhabitants, organisations, politics, history, visitors & infestants only a few days ahead of your first adventuring party, for at least the first couple of months...
  pre-orders invited; please email me to enquire; v$imt$v at my domain, i-m-t.demon.co.uk (written out so, to reduce "harvesting" by spammer's cd-compilers.)
