I've heard about a toolkit with more gear and additional rules for gear. "Big Score", is that it's name?
Anyway, will this include gear for Fantasy Crafts too, like more close combat weapons, bows and armor?

I haven't noticed any information about the upcoming Toolkits on the In Development part of the product page. Will there be info up there soon? Smiley

Cheers,

Big Score doesn't have more gear (as far as I'm aware) it's a toolkit offering alternatives to the current mission-based gear system.

We've got you covered Smiley Part of Crafty's new model is to announce products once we can be confident of their release - generally, that means when a draft is in. It's easier on our reputation and on everyone's nerves. However, we're going to keep using In Development to track where stuff is, so keep checking back (and/or asking questions here - we don't mind Smiley).

There's a master plan brewing for the In Development page that should start coming together soon. Once it's in place you should be able to use it as a guide to what's close to release and what print books are in development, as well as what stages those products are in. It will not feature ETAs, however - we've learned our lesson on that front.

Very nice. ETAs are not such a big concern, but a nice overview on what's in the pipeline would be very nice. Smiley

Note that the page won't include stuff that's in development that's a ways off. That stuff we just won't be talking about much anymore. Best for everyone. Smiley

Well, the things I'm waiting for the most are Fantasy Craft and Classic Fantasy Races. Just hope they'll be "Tolkien enough" for me Smiley

an editorial from my country has a section with an aproximation of the percentage of book already done, that they update regularly, as works progresses. Are u thinking about something like that?

It also depends on how frequently they update the service. Hm...

Not exactly. Ours will indicate the stage of each project's development (e.g. concept, writing, editing, etc.), but won't indicate percentage completion within those stages. Since we have day jobs and families, our schedules are somewhat chaotic and a particular stage might take 1 day for one project and 2 weeks for another.

Lets see you guys have families, day jobs, work on projects for Crafty, go to conventions (I know, I've seen you at one!), post on the forums (not just this one but on RPG.net and Enworld at least), watch DVDs and go to movies, play videogames, online and platform specific and I assume eat and socialize. Tell me... when do you sleep?

Me personally? I don't. It's one of the great tragedies of my life actually.

Can't speak for Scott and Alex, though Alex is young. He only turned 30 last year, so he's still got stamina.  Tongue

And... socialize? What is this thing of which you speak?
