Patreon

First if I may direct your attention to Patreon for a second, https://www.patreon.com/nordicweasel

Starting in October, I am going to make older content available in general (likely through Discord and Facebook). I am not sure about the extent of the lag and some items won't be picked (generally if they have later been updated and are out of date). 

Down the road, Id like something like a 3 month lag between Patreon and general availability, but that may not be possible due to how much stuff there is. For now, I am going to go back to the beginning of the Five Parsecs Modiphius release and work forward a bit each month.

Musket to something

Secondly, I am still working on the "Rules formerly known as Musket to Rifle but now known as actually I am not sure yet". I suppose that doesn't abbreviate well. This is something that will benefit from continual updates to add more national information, scenarios, info on specific conflicts and so forth. 

I wanted to clarify that the game will not purely rely on points values. There will be campaign options (though more of a wargames campaign than a full adventure game) and a host of scenarios to play through as well. Of course people will also be free to just do whatever. 

That being said I did want to include the option: While I suspect few people will start their historical gaming here, it's important to me that the game becomes as friendly to beginners as possible. That means some small essays explaining various things, pointers to informational sources and catering to both points and scenarios. And of course a lot of people like points as a starting point to get a scenario together before adjusting based on the specific circumstances. 

Other factors

No news on expansions for Leagues and Parsecs yet. As far as I know they are still in layout. I did see the art for the new character species for Leagues: Bug people. It looks proper menacing too.
