This summer 7-9 September we are planing to have a little RPG convention in southern Germany (Heppenheim) on a Castle (Starkenburg). We still have tickets for this event including a sleeping place in the Castle youth hostel and meals. Joe Dever will be there all the time and also Alberto Dal Lago and at least some french authors of the multiplayer books. Maybe this is interesting for you all as now you could spend a whole weekend with Joe Dever and Alberto. For more informations or tickets just write to mantikoreverlag@aol.com.

So if your in the neighborhood, here’s your chance to hang out with Joe.

Greetings, fellow Kai

Following hot on the heels of the discovery of all the missing pages comes one final release for the Lone Wolf Club Newsletters: A complete archive of all thirty-seven Newsletters in one PDF file.

The benefits of this all-in-one document are:

  • One download instead of thirty-seven
  • Only one Title Page and one Project Aon License means reduction of over 100 pages
  • Much-reduced download-size–29Mb vs. thirty-seven files amounting to 41.3Mb
  • Each individual Newsletter is Bookmarked for convenience
  • Easy to search for specific information
  • Newsletters provided in the correct release order; no more wondering where the Specials fit in!

The idea of releasing the Lone Wolf Club Newsletters was mooted on the mailing list sometime back in February 2003. I know, because I looked this up, and no one is more surprised than I am! We assumed that it would be a fairly straightforward job of scanning and releasing a few pages. How wrong we were.

It has taken the last nine years to bring this project to completion. About two years ago, when there were still twenty pages missing from our files, we thought it unlikely that we would ever complete this work. And yet, here we are in 2012, with all 431 pages recreated with improved fonts and layout, but containing all the original information sans typos. Perhaps this bodes well for other Lone Wolf-related projects to be brought to a satisfactory conclusion sometime this year! ;-)

We certainly hope this complete resource will be of interest to fellow Lone Wolf fans everywhere. So, whether you are a long-time fan of the series, or a new convert, please join us in cheering the successful completion of a tough assignment: “For Sommerlund and the Kai!”

In response to several requests that Francesco and I have received from fans, we have now printed a limited number of maps that we can supply unfolded, making them ideal for framing and for display on a wall.

The maps will be carefully furled and dispatched in sturdy cardboard postal tubes with plastic cup ends.

No slip covers will be supplied with these flat maps.

Unfolded maps will be signed by me and will bear my personal library seal.

Please note that we are unable to exchange a previously purchased folded map in a slip cover for a flat map in a postal tube.

The price remains the same at €20.00 with free shipping worldwide.

The limited edition unfolded maps can be purchased through this special section of the Map of Magnamund website.

Attention fellow Kai

A full and unexpurgated report of the last twelve months’ activity of the elusive and secretive “Aon Project” has been leaked into the wild. It lists their achievements and experiments during 2011, and even projects their work over the coming year, though we all know how inaccurate those forecasts usually are.

On no account must we allow this information to be ignored or censored. To that end, I have placed it online, at great risk to myself. Hopefully, they won’t be able to find me before this information gas gone global. It is linked from this secret URL:

http://www.projectaon.org/en/Main/ProjectAonAnnualReports

Be sure to publicise this, fellow Kai, before this secret brotherhood steal back the secrets of their nefarious schemes. Their secrecy knows no bounds, and they will stop at nothing to hide their very existence from the world.

What was that…? I’m sure I heard something downstairs…

For all us map geeks, they have mapped out all of Magnamund in the style of the original maps found in the books. They’re apparently selling signed and embossed copies.
