I've not heard about it either. Wonder how different it is...?

[folnjir]

I think it's new to a lot of people

It looks like they are looking to compile a lot of the stuff that has appeared in other publications but calling it a 'new edition' suggests that there will be rules involved. Too bad: I have haven't even played a game of the latest edition  .

Given the slight impracticallity of originally having to get the book that contained rules for four faction you may not have needed, and later a larger book focussing on an entire period some were not at all interested in, it does make sense to create a full, seperate rulebook, and have supplements for just the further periods and armies. I did like how many of the previous armies could be used in the same settings however, even with reasonable overlap to later expansions (e.g. Normans and Byzantines were still relevant fighting Saracens and Crusaders; Welsh and Irish could be part of the Aetius and Arthur setting) - they are either very ambitious with all these future books, or there will be very few useable factions in each.

I've been thinking about trying out Saga - this will give me a new timeframe. Interested to see what they do

Lord S talked about this at the UK Grand Melee last year, he said he wanted one rule book with all the rules in, then period specific books with all the factions in them & they would update some of the factions that were broken.

Can't say too much but I have read the Beta version.... quite a bit is changing; some for the better, some 'not so good'.

Be interesting to see the finished product. But being Studio Tomahawk I'll be very surprised if it does appear next year

Please say too much, we're all ears.

[Captain Blood]

I have contributed some piccies... 

[Maxromek]

Captain Blood would that mean it's sort of an art book of yours? That'd probably make me buy it

[Phil Robinson]

All will revealed?

If it is an overhaul of the rules to clarify wording etc then a minimal cost PDF would be the best as existing players just update their existing rulebook.

If, like a recent ruleset I play a lot, is revised to add colour pictures etc without improving the basic rules then it will not be worth investing in 

[seldon]

I'm totally in.. one rule book to rule them all.. but the extension to other periods is just brilliant !!
