Thank you. I hope to have the project completed by the end of this month (it all depends on what the holidays do to my schedule and whether or not I expand it from 96-pages to 128-pages).

The problem is, I need to try to determine if the expansion will bring in enough additional sales to make it worth my time. I'm not completely clear on how many RuneQuest players are interested in a city sourcebook packed with 30 NPCs and 30 adventures. Especially since this is nowhere near Glorantha-style.
Well, you are filling a couple niches that is sorely lacking right now:
1) Jump in Gaming - Five core books and 3 Gloranthan books into RuneQuest and we have only one introductory scenario.
2) Traditional RPG setting material. Gloranthaphiles are heavily represented on this board, but there have been a lot of people who have mentiond they like the system so far, but don't want to game in Glorantha.
I would say of late you are the primary producer of RQ material for the more traditional RPG type setting. Sure the Lankhmar and the EC lines are coming, and while more traditional than Glorantha they are still niche type products. Classic Fantasy play is wide open right now as far as MRQ goes, and quality supplements will only help the market grow.
And did I mention Jump in Gaming? That one is big.
A cool cover never hurts either.

A City Book is the most useful kind of RPG supplement, as it can be used to mount a campaign, can be a springboard for different scenarios or be used as a base.
So, I'd go for it.
If you could link it in to a series of scenarios or a campaign setting then all the better.
Perhaps the non-Mongoose publishers could get together and develop a generic camapign setting where each could publish things in the setting but nobody owns it.

Anytime, I have bought each of the products you have published, and will continue to do so while you publish great products.
And to put the boot on the other foot, your previous RQ products haven't interested me enough to buy them (especially as I prefer not to by PDF's...) but I am definitely interested in this, and intend to buy a copy, since, as others have said, I think this is a very useful tyoe of supplement, so want to encourage you (and others) to produce more of the same :wink:
