It’s been a month of big changes here (more on that later), but the first thing to say is that you have less than two hours to back the Kickstarter for Greg Stolze’s 13th Age novel, “The Forgotten Monk”, so get in there quickly! New releases in the Pelgrane store include the pre-order for the long-awaited expansion book for science-fiction GUMSHOE setting Ashen Stars, Accretion Disk, crammed full of new tech, ships and species to enhance your campaign. The February edition of KWAS, GUMSHOE Zoom: Goëtia, is now available in the webstore, as is the February edition of 13th Age Monthly, Temples of the Frogfolk. KWAS subscribers will be getting the latest edition, Tomb-Hounds of Egypt, tomorrow.
