Mongoose/Legend and Dragonmeet 2011 (UK)

[danskmacabre]

Is Mongoose going to be there selling Legend etc?
If not is it likely that 3rd party suppliers will have a chance to have it in stock by then?
If so, I may as well wait for Dragonmeet 2011 as I'm going there anyway.

We are, and we will!

Yay! Great news, please make sure you have Legend with the black cover in stock.

Well, people keep orderingh it (seriously, we have already run out of stock here in the UK). Fortunately, we are getting resuppliedm next Tuesday, along witha sizeable amount of books specifically for Dragonmeet!

Cool, can you save me one then please?
Or do you think you'll have plenty in stock since you're saving some for Dragonmeet?

Not surprised it's selling so well tho, a tenner is a bargain!

Just got back from Dragonmeet.
I met the Mongoose people ( *Waves* ) and bought the Legend core rules and the bestiary.
I got the black cover editions of both.
The Bestiary is Concise and doesn't have ll the trappings of the MRQ2 bestiary, which to me is a good thing.

I've only glanced at the Core rules, but they look serviceable.
The magic has Common magic, Sorcery and Divine magic, no Spirit magic, but as discussed, that will be released as a free PDF.
There no index at the back, which is a bit disappointing, just a very brief chapter list at the front, maybe it was skipped to save space.

For a tenner, it's a bargain, the bestiary is good value and has some extra monsters to pad out he missing Glorantha/Runequest specific monsters.
