First of all, welcome back into the fray ! :) Quoting a High Programmer : I'll paraphrase quickly and VERY roughly… — The current « traditional » rulebook is Troubleshooters. Get that if you want Paranoia as you used to know it. — Internal Security is basically a self-contained HIL sector...

I knew everything would be DEATH TO THE CAPITALIST OPPRESSOR sorted out !

According to Wikipedia, all four missions which have "disappeared" (two short ones and two standard length) had already been republished in the XP Flashbacks, so it is not a matter of redoing the layout… I smell treason… :twisted: (Naah, it will all be sorted out. I trust the Mongoose.)

Any news on the release date ? It's been traitorously slipping into an uncertain future… :D

Too bad… Extreme Paranoia is IMO among the best of the XP-era supplements, and contains information not present anywhere in the current line. This all makes me wonder where the line is headed — a thought that echoes an earlier thread — now that the only book that has been announced is Gareth's...

Are there any plans to republish the WMD missions, and the contents of other XP-era supplements, eg. Extreme Paranoia ?

I was very surprised to learn that Gareth Hanrahan was laid off (sorry, “made redundant” :? ) and while I do hope he will be able to fuel new projects of his own... is anyone already planning to take over his job on the Paranoia line? Since I hear he mostly wrote the three new rulebooks, it...

Thanks for being thorough, Eric ! I think Shane Ivey, project manager for Delta Green: Targets of Opportunity (another long-awaited book) made a very good comment regarding late titles : High Programmers is the latest offspring of a highly respected game line, and it aims high. Maybe we...

Good strategy, it is what I usually tell people new to their job and/or who have had a job handed to them without enough preparation/resources : “You're telling me it'd take you a month to do it ? Take two months but have it READY TO SHIP by the deadline.”

Every once in a while, someone asks (2005) this (2007) question (2009). The only hint of an answer that I have seen is this : I haven't seen the news item being referred to, though.

In France as well, and still haven't received mine… And while I'm glad I ordered directly from the publisher, I agree it's a bit disappointing that pretty much all retailers I visited got it first. :?

Bravo en tout cas pour l'initiative ! On se rappelle avec tendresse de l'époque pas si lointaine où les traductions françaises étaient nombreuses… et maintenant on pourra recommender des jeux Mongoose à nos amis non-anglophones. :D

La page principale de Mongoose en français indique qu'une traduction de Paranoïa est prévue d'emblée… Et on s'en réjouit tous, la version WEG devenant de plus en plus difficile à trouver). :D Est-ce déjà en gestation (glossaire et/ou trad déjà amorcés) ? Si oui, une date provisoire est-elle...
