    The White Wolf LiveJournal Community - Live From SoCal
    Much wailing and gnashing of teeth.

    Live From SoCal
    Will here, in Anaheim at Gen Con SoCal. Between seminars here in the Marriot(t), Kelley popped in and spilled the beans on Secret Project M. If you were at that seminar, you know what it is now. If you know what it is now, go ahead and post it here in a comment. Otherwise, I'm sure it's happening on a forum somewhere soon. I'll post the news here in a couple of days, just to be sure.

    But know this: If you attend our seminars, you get to know the cool stuff early.

    While it might seem exciting for some people to attend the seminars to find out about upcoming releases a few hours or days earlier than the rest of us, it just means that those "lucky" few have to wait even longer for the stuff to come out.
    Thats not much of a boon if you ask me.

    You know it was in the press release like five days ago, right?

    No. Not that.

    The merger is not Secret Project M. We haven't been teasing the merger at all. Secret Project M is... something else. Something huge and other.

    The M stands for Monte.

    WotC finally unloaded D&D like some of the rumors said they wanted to, and they sold it to y'all, and Monte Cook is developing 4e as his last act before he leaves the hobby?

    Oh, I thought it was for MMO. Y'all need better initial-fu.

    Slackers.
    I was sending spoilers from my phone live during the GenCon Indy seminar. Y'all West Coasters need to get on the ball.

    Well, a part of me says "No way!", while the other says "The Timestamps match! THE TIMESTAMPS MATCH!"
    Monte Cook's "A World of Darkness". The last Monte Cook book ever.
    I just can't quite believe it. It feels almost *impossible*.

    It's still pretty surprising.
    I mean, it's not every day when someone who has contributed so much to the scene decides to call it quits. Particularly someone whose name carries such renown.

    Kewl. If it's a d20 version of WoD, you have to give WW props for courage. Seems like L5R d20 conversion just sort seeped out of the bottom of the bucket without so much as a splash. Avid players didn't make the switch because of dice conventions, or so it felt. Maybe sales proved otherwise.

    But waiiiit a second. Wizards announces the schedule for 4e at Feb's Winter Fantasy, and then WW goes ahead with a d20 product for GenCon? That doesn't make any sense. Monte's got to have a new dice system on tap...

    I seriously hope this will be an "Alternate WoD Corebook" in the style of his Alternate PHB's, and not D20 WoD. The former would be awesome, maybe Vampires, Werewolves, Mages out in the open and changing the world dramatically, making it a dark modern high fantasy. Or similiar. If it's just a d20 conversion, I'll ignore it just as much as I ignored the d20 versions of the Aeon Trinity series. A book with all the rules flavor removed in favor of a popular system.
