I read on here that NG would not be publishing it. Did the author take it to a different publisher? ________________________________ Can't sleep. Clowns will eat me.

As for the questions... Wrath of Orcus was intended to be published using the upcoming "mass combat rules" from WotC. Unfortunately, Chainmail became a miniature skirmish game and wasn't suitable for this use, thus Clark started to shop around for a d20 alternate (several were upcoming at the time). Alas, nothing really happened, and small modules quickly became financially unfeasible for d20 publishers (kind of ironic, since WotC itself was in the same boots and this lead in part to the OGL's creation). The last news is a "free download" on a "when it's done" basis. It would make a good freebie for Bard's Gate... whenever that one comes out. Crypt of the Shadow Lord was, I think, just cancelled quietly. As it is another Peterson module, it may resurface yet. Sword of Air is also too small for publication at the time. I personally hope NG includes it in a compilation type product (like Vampires and Liches or Raise the Dead). Or how about publishing it for Castles&Crusades? The Crystal Skull - that one might still be in production, or at least there has been no announcement of its cancellation. No idea about Blight from the Pits. __________________ All hail the Irresponsible Overlord! If we gun down outlaws, only ... let's try that again, shall we. ---Roland Raygun

If the adventures are too small to publish individually, gather them all in one book. Seems like a simple enough solution. I'm sure there are other factors involved though. Oh well.... guess we'll just have to wait and see. ________________________________ Can't sleep. Clowns will eat me.

Cant recall, but I know Bill and I talked about it the other day.
