Lone Wolf Gamebooks - Status Update!

[MongooseMatt]

Hi guys,

Our bookmakers have been toiling long and hard over the past few weeks, but I can now reveal;

All outstanding orders for Books 1 & 2 have been dispatched, and we now have a surplus stock (something we have wanted for a few months now!).

All but 25-odd orders for Book 3 have been dispatched, and the remainder will be out of the door by Monday at the latest - plus, we will have a surplus stock of this book too.

Book 4 is currently being produced right now, and will be shipping over next week (poor Russell can't get them all out of the door on the same day!).

Last, Charlotte is already working on Book 5!

Any word on the 5 month late novels?

Excellent update

 

[Winter Wolf]

It 's very good to hear what is happening. So I guess it would be safe to say that demand is what is causing the problems which is a good thing. I was a bit dissapointed that having ordered the Mega deal things had slipped release wise. But as long as the books will come out and demand is high I'm reasonably happy.

It would be god to get hold of the novels too.

Thanks for the update.

WW.

Hi guys,

The last of our production strains are being resolved right now - you should see the novels relatively quickly after that. We just need to cross all the T's, as they say. . .

Well my copy of The Caverns of Kalte has arrived. Great packaging and the book looks excellent - I especially like the map!

So thanks for that Mongoose - I will be pre-ordering The Chasm of Doom shortly!

I got the Caverns of Kaite book probably a month ago or more, but it was the missing section 192 version and I still haven't received the regular Book 3 and was wondering if I needed to E-mail somebody to get the copy or if you still haven't sent them to everybody yet? When should I begin to wonder? Thanks

If you received the faulty LW#3 in January then that imples that you must have a long shipping time (Australia perhaps?) as otherwise it would have reached you in Decemeber. I'd be inclined to say it may be a while yet, under the assumption that the shipping time to you is several weeks.

Ack the novels disappeared altogether from the listed products.

Ah ... well... perhaps in March they will receive a printing slot.

Did anyone else notice how book 5 and the novels have all disappeared from this month's release list? I hope that's just an administrative error.

Book 5 is in April as it was before. It is Book 4 which has been in this month's release list for some time. It (Book 4 that is) is now moved to current releases in the Lone Wolf section as well. (But it was removed from the February list, but I think they usually remove them there when they are added to current releases.)

The novels on the other hand were removed both from this month's relases and from the Lone Wolf release page.

First of all, a great hello to the fellow comrades of ToTS!
I hope to rejoin you as soon as the forum's problem will cease.

Next, thanks to Mongoose for the first 2 volumes!
They arrived safe and sound, only 5 days for the shipping to Italy.
Keep up the gooooooooood work!

I've recently aquired the Lone Wolf RPG book. I was wondering if the Darklands Supplement or Magic of Magnamund book was out yet or when it will be released.

 

[Greg Smith]

All three of the LW supplements (Darklands, Magic, Dawn of Destruction) were published a while ago and have since gone out of print.

They are available as pdfs at Drive Thru RPG

Otherwise try you FLGS or online stockist (Leisure Games has some in the UK).

Received book 4 this morning! Many thanks for the quick delivery.
I've only had time to give it a quick glance, but (sorry!) I've spotted a couple of errors. Personally I don't feel they are worth sending the book back over, but I thought I'd mention them so they can be sorted out quickly.

The second page of D'Val's rules is poorly aligned, with the last line partially cut off at the bottom of the page. It is still legible though.
In addition, D'Val's Action Chart is identical to Loi-Kymar's in book 3, with herb pouch and 'additional object'. No room for D'Val's abilities or equipment.

As I say these are minor matters and won't spoil the book for me. I'll let you know if I spot anything else. Hopefully not!
