Superheroes Soon, Hentai Coming Next

I just sent off the finalized version of Psi-Watch: Unlimited Edition to Mark yesterday, and he should be posting it for sale within the next few days. The final copy of the book clocked in at 308 pages, counting the OGL on the last page, back cover and final page index. In terms of actual content, it's about 300 pages or so of very dense material. Fifteen new player races (with a couple of subraces included), a half dozen new advanced classes, a completely redesigned power armor section....this book is going to be amazing. I'm hoping you all are as enthusiastic as I am.

I also sent along the final draft for Black Tokyo II: Chastity & Depravity. The previous draft, the one that Mark had already was about 25,000 words. Over the last couple of week that initial draft ballooned into a 52,000 word monster. Expect alot of new world information, new spells, a new advanced class added since the previous draft was completed, bringing the total new classes in the book to four. I also added a few new player races, some monsters and did I mention an entire shit load of world detail? This is going to be an amazingly sweet release.

Right now, I'm taking a short breather, not really working on anything, after getting these two massive manuscripts out. In a day or two, I'll start up a short (and long promised) "Giant Mutant-killing Robots" sourcebook for Psi-Watch. Expect the 'Sentinel-book' to be about 15-20 pages. I also want to do another short sourcebook about Vatican funded heroes for Psi-Watch.

My next big release will probably either be a State of the Otherverse sourcebook revising the Object Philosophy rules from Otherverse America. I want to go back and retweak all the Object Philos a little bit, make it easier to qualify for them and use them. That will probably be a weighty 50-60 page sourcebook. I also want to take a deeper look at the Choicer culture, giving some of the other neo-pagan factions the same love I showed the Coven of Bast.

I still plan to do a little bit more fantasy stuff- I've got a nice idea for a revision of several D7ACU releases as Pathfinder prestige classes. I've been wanting to update the Neo-Witches, the Innocent, the Manitou and a few other casting classes from D7ACU into fantasy, and I think I've finally come up with a way to make a single impressive, cohesive release that ties all those diverse classes together.

Anyway, it's going to be a great April.
