Echoes from the Wyrd #12

This is the Twelfth Echoes from the Wyrd and also the first. This is the first of our irregular newsletter-cum-ezine to appear in GameWyrd’s new look layout. Do you like the layout? There are prizes to be won for feedback.

There’s an historic feel to our Roleplaying Previews this month. We’ve two samples from the alternate Earth roleplaying game Shades of Earth and since Victoriana has been published (and selling well) for a while now we’ve rushed out the last two previews for that. If history isn’t your thing then we balance the scales by offering a look at the sci-fi Star Ace RPG and with an exclusive preview (the whole first chapter) from Brimstone and Treason, a new novella from one time Wizards of the Coast writer Caroline Dunford.

We’ve done well with our e-View target this month too. Jim Butler is the founder of the impressive Bastion Press and worked for TSR and Wizards before that.
