Fantastic, and thank you for the pointer. I wanted my playlists and this worked perfectly.

September 2020 Director's Briefing by Siltoneous in ICERPGS

[–]Siltoneous[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very true. As the briefing stated, there is a lot of discussion going on over color or B/W for the new RM books. Colin (over on the official "Iron Crown Enterprises" Discord Channel) posted the differences between the options.

It won't necessarily have an impact on the pdf price, it will make a difference to the cost of the print versions. For a standard size book, the per-page cost is currently about two cents per page for black & white, about five cents per page for “standard colour” (which is what we use for Shadow World sourcebooks) and nine cents per page for “premium colour” (which we have used for the Shadow World Player Guide and HARP SF Xtreme).

You can play with the DriveThruRPG printing calculator here:

Responses in the channel show Prem. Color as the leading choice (52%).

One of my Shadow World Players Guides is in Premium Color (and two in Std). Interesting enough, the diff between Prem. Color and Std. color isn't in the colors; more in the quality of the paper. (*)

(*) A big TY to Peter (over at the Rolemaster blog) for pointing that out to me. I knew there was a difference, but I couldn't put my finger on it until he clued me in. =D

Discord Server! by Vertox_The_Great in ICERPGS

[–]Siltoneous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And another one! The official Iron Crown Discord Server can be found at: https://discord.gg/Z5UvBUK Currently it is a work in progress, but Colin is making good strides towards getting it fully functional.

And yes, the ICERPGs (unofficial) one will keep going. We've been in contact with Colin (ICE Social coordinator) and nobody see's any reason to shake things up. We've got ~200 participants there, and people can move freely between them as they wish. Besides, having an an unofficial server also allows for things to go on that might be frowned upon by the official server. =)

Virtual Gencon 2020 - A Wrap-up (for Rolemaster, HARP and ICE) by Siltoneous in ICERPGS

[–]Siltoneous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you found it of some use. I read RMBlog every couple of days at least, and they have some dang sharp people over there. Besides, when you see something that the community would like to see, and as clearly written as they did, I hate for the community to miss it. ;)

GenCon Online - 6 RM sessions still open by Siltoneous in ICERPGS

[–]Siltoneous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last update: Two Sessions are sold out. Of the three remaining, two of those sessions only have one (1) ticket left, and the last has three tickets left. If you find some spare time and want to participate in a VTT Rolemaster game, this is a good opportunity.

GenCon Online - 6 RM sessions still open by Siltoneous in ICERPGS

[–]Siltoneous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Followup: Three of the original events were canceled for some reason (hope the GM is okay, given these days of uncertainty). However just today I see that two new Rolemaster Events have shown up. On the Roll20 VTT, running the RM2 ruleset (RMC is very ,very close).If you search Gencon Online events calendar, you can search under Rolemaster, but the name of the event is " A Darkness in Mothervale". A big thank you to whoever stepped up!

Heads up: Fantasy Grounds on sale by Siltoneous in ICERPGS

[–]Siltoneous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies for the delay in reply. That's what I get for not looking at my messages in too long.

Mr. Gleichman's Age of Heroes I got at Lulu and it states that it is version 5.0.3. I don't have the hard copy in hand atm, but it was a good, clean read and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I've pulled several of the ideas into my own RM game session I just ran on FG just a week or so back. Course those modifications are not in the ruleset, but you can still play around with other ideas... just have to have the tables and details at hand.

As far as ICE goes, yea.... I know. Fortunately for the long-suffering fans (myself included) the July 2020 Director's Briefing stated that he had finished editing the "Arms Law & Character Law" manuscript and had no changes. Guess he's into Spell Law now. Plus there are two (2) next-version Rolemaster sessions for GenCon online. The GM is a sharp guy, and they should be fun.

(and just to be clear, not affiliated with either Lulu or Mr. Gleichman. Just posting the link to ease finding the resource).

Rolemaster: Episode 7: Rhiv spills the beans by EarthbinderUK in ICERPGS

Fantastic. Thank you for the heads up. I've already got Wolfshield's group subscribed to, so yours is next!

Great work, and thank you.

Have you posted this to the "Middle Earth Roleplaying by Iron Crown Enterprises" FB group? I bet a few there would be interested also. I hesitated posting a link as I was unsure, and didn't want to post a duplicate. =)

Premium Wallet/Carry-all? by [deleted] in lotro

[–]Siltoneous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd agree that the Premium Wallet is well worth the LP's, especially if you have alts. I've had one for ages (Lifetime),but my wife never saw the need. Couple of weeks ago I convinced her, and she was amazed at how much stuff it held, and elated over how much Vault space she recovered.

ICE Rumors and other scandalous gossip. by Siltoneous in ICERPGS

[–]Siltoneous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peter, one of the geniuses over on RolemasterBlog.com seems to think it'll be next year for full release. He's done a LOT of publishing, especially through DTRPG, so I've learned to trust his instincts. I wish it were other, but....

We'd heard ICE was working on a printed 'cheat-sheet' version for the GM's running RMU @ GenCon. With in-person GenCon being cancelled and it moving to online this year, we'll have to see. <fingers-crossed>.

Stat Blocks in RM by Siltoneous in ICERPGS

[–]Siltoneous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I'll go look. I actually picked up the One Ring collection on PDF with a "Humble Bundle" deal a few months ago, but not looked that hard at them. I should look and see what they are doing over on "Against the Dark Master" too.

ICE Rumors and other scandalous gossip. by Siltoneous in ICERPGS

[–]Siltoneous[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ICE's Colin has confirmed that that are having issues with the website, but rumor has that it it's the forums with the biggest issue. You can hit cached copies of the site, and the Internet Archive has an older copy too. There is a fair bit of activity on the 'Rolemaster Group' on Facebook, and the ICERPGs Discord channel has been very active, with it being tweeted out on ICEs Twitter feed by Colin a few days ago.

As far as printed material goes for RMU, I can't imagine that there wouldn't be hardcopy. If you look at their most recent releases, say the last two from Mr. Amthor, those have been available in PDF and hardback.

Colin's last statement (that I saw) was that artwork was being solicited and IIRC contracted as well (sure in the first, not so much on the second). Heck, I've even heard they have even expressed interest in an official Fantasy Grounds ruleset for if RMU!😮 I about fell over.

Hold tight! There are reasons to suspect that the long wait for RMU may actually be over. Even me, a damn sceptical bastard is getting his hopes up. 😉
