BOOKS ARE HERE!

Official confirmation that Savage North armies are allowed would be awesome! I know a lot of us can't wait to try some of these new factions out against the best of the best. Also, any reward for painted armies? I know we talked about it in other threads, but Gen Con would be a great place to make it part of the Warlord tournament tradition. Yes, Savage North armies WILL be legal at GenCon! Yes, I will be handing out prizes for best painted army. Exact prize still TBD.

If we receive the shipment today (crosses fingers), then yes.

I gotta disagree. All other healing spells simply say "target model". Lay on Hands states "target model in B2B with the Spellcaster", which indicates it cannot be the Spellcaster itself.

They were used so little we stopped devoting resources to it, sorry. As for the future, I cannot say. Resurrecting it is not currently on our schedule, as we're doing a lot of other stuff that you'll start seeing by the end of the year.

Word on the street is that we will indeed have the book on hand for this event...

I ran a prerelease at The Asylum today. 32 players, and every one of them was well behaved, clean, and not high.

You can find a map on our website: http://www.reapermini.com/TheAsylum

we still don't understand... MD(14)- CP(6)= 8 so you need to roll under 8? everything else in the game is 10+ so this is what is throwing us Stubbdog just worded it poorly. What happens is that the CASTER makes the rolls against anyone caught in, or passing through, the fire wall. The caster makes a standard Casting Check against the MD of each affected model. In this case, the caster needs to roll 8 or better in order to affect a model. The sentence "at the original casting power" just means that if the spellcaster later takes damage and his CP goes down, models who later pass through the wall do not have an easier time of doing it.

1) Well said. I would say that yes, Martyr triggers the graveyard doctrine. 2) That is what we do too. Use an appropriate size piece of paper when you need to fly/burrow where a ground model is, or if it isn't in another model's way, just put some sort of token on/near the model to indicate it is flying/burrowing.

Indeed it does. And one in the 10%.

As curious as I am, I'd rather Reaper kept their mouth shut about new games this time around. After all, RotD was announced 3 years ago, there is still no official game, and IMO, much of the excitement surrounding that release is gone. Better to not know what they're working on, and have it be a pleasant surprise like Warlord 2 was, than have development seemingly drag on like CAV2 and RotD. What he said. 90% of the games we work on in-house will never see print, so there is no reason to speak about them. Of the remaining 10%, 8% of those are at least 2 years out, so again, no reason to speak about them publicly yet. A few people at ReaperCon did indeed get to play in our game based on "improvable stats for characters based on the acquisition of experience points". That game is certainly in the 10%. Whether it is in the 2% or 8% is still being decided.

There is not. We are working on so many different RAGE games in-house that we haven't looked into opening it up, as we don't want fan-made games beating our games to market.

Exactly correct! Both books contain the same rules. The only difference is which armies they contain.

You caught is in the middle. The 2nd Edition core rulebook is currently out of stock here, and the Savage North rulebook isn't out yet. If you have a local store, you should check if they have the core rulebook (or if they can order it from their distributor). The core rulebook is softcover. The upcoming Savage North rulebook is hardcover.

I'll get that updated on the website as soon as I can.

The spell has a 5" AoE, not 3". That 5" AoE is centered on the caster, so whatever fits in there. At the destination spot, models just have to be placed within 3" of the caster, which is bigger than the initial AoE. Keep in mind that a model is considered to be "within AoE" if even just a sliver of its base is in the AoE, so you can get a fair amount of models if the caster has a 1" base. If the caster has a larger base, then you are correct in stating you can get fewer models in there, and they would need to practically be in B2B at the start of the spell. At the destination point, you can spread out nicely though.

Absolutely!

Razig will be available as an online-only faction, like they always have. Razig will be posted the same time the Savage North book goes on sale (i.e., next month!) So there is light at the end of the tunnel, and the tunnel is pretty short.

Here are the 3 scenarios for Origins. Please bring your 1000 point army from the Core Rulebook. Savage North factions and Razig are not legal for Origins. All players will play 3 rounds - 1 on each of these 3 scenarios. Origins_Storm_the_Palace.pdf Origins_Totem_Trouble.pdf Origins_Ruins_of_the_Ancients.pdf

Effective immediately, The Asylum will no longer be open on Sundays.

Yep! As soon as the Savage North is sent to the printer, figuring out how to do the whole eBook thing is next on my to do list.

Ideally we would someday be to a point of offering a wide range of options from B&W softcover to full color hardcover, with everything in between. Sales are not there yet. If the Savage North hits store shelves with a $35-40 MSRP, it will have a 16 page color section with a painting guide (updated from the 1st edition of the game).
