Rob, he say: "After a break I find myself drawn back to this creative effort! I may even be on the cusp of ressurecting and replaying my original WW campaign,...
Thanks Jane. I was lurking around here and read a post by John and I must confess it got the juices flowing. Ian's and Jeff's responses were as expected but if...
I was also helping on the GAC(gasp, I know, little old me!), collating what was in print with all of the heroes/ superheroes of the Hero Wars period. I also...
... Sounds like you were doing the essential donkey-work - great to know somebody was! ... Well, that post you quoted (and I just snipped) was over a year ago....
Cool. I was thinking that this effort in fandom was going to be a joint creative work in progress rather than a push toward a future publication? Particularly...
... It depends on what you mean by "publication". I'd like to be able to produce a resource for gamers/writers/creators that's complete in and of itself, ready...
agreed. but I am with John. I want to avoid all the naysayers that we should 'wait' for some unspecified time in the future 'when all will be made clear'. For...
In my game it was wide enough for probably 8 men across and was held by a small heroband, just the right size for the best fighters in the player group to hold...
... Joerg, I think, added the idea that we can have a bridge wide enough for the two wagons it requires as a trade route, but have one point deliberately...
Sure that works just fine. Barricades during the seige. Fall back! Fall back! Sounds like a great extended contest! I may use that idea, as it sounds like a...

Hi Guys and Gals, I would rule out huge boulders to reduce the gap on the bridge. It seems the besieged like to rush forward too, and not just defend and...
... Good point on the principle, but remember different types of defences may be more "mobile" to some people than to others. Earth magic, anyone? ... I'm...
... Probably, but don't you start (mis)using that word "revelations". A "revelation" is when you find out something which already existed. What Greg did wasn't...
Hahaha of course you are right. Greg made stuff up making all the other good things people had contributed wrong. It wasn't a revelation. It was a revision. ...
... A revision in *his* game. No reason why other people should substitute it for whatever they were already using, where it clashed. It didn't make the...
Yes, and the only game we know that has played out most of this Hero Wars arc is of course the Gwandor. I think this should be fun. Do we need to create a new...
... There are probably others, but that's the only one I know of. ... Probably. I'd suggest PBWIKI as a host - they work in very well with Yahoo, I use them in...
... I don't remember Greg ever being quite that sweeping. He does say that on the God plane effect does not necessarily follow cause but that's because...
... That's probably the primary source to base the outline on. I think it's the only place with a full timeline. Add stuff on from there. ... I think most of...
Mine Herowars are still in 1620. My players' heroes are dealing with Than Ulbar, being sent from Kallyr (at Whitewall) to find the Battle Banner of EWF. But it...
... An email conversation I was having with him once about normal humans on the normal plane - he asked why I was insisting that cause and effect had to match,...
... That sounds like a great campaign! And yes, that's the sort of level I'd expect from anyone who wanted to game through this period. The players are the...
... Yes. Some of the timeline has to be "interpreted", but it's the only source we've got. Peter Metcalfe did a lot of work on making sense of it, I'd suggest...
I recently noticed John posted one or two works of his, on the World of Glorantha list, asking for contribution and feedback. I had no time to answer, but...
... I don't follow that list, and I don't think Rob does either (and John knows this), so that'll be a "no" from both of us. John's posted about his works in...
Jane rules! ... I've been arguing this for years. I'm glad at least one person agrees with me. Or the other way around. ... Mentally at least, I've merged the...
... I abdicate. No-one rules. No-one should "rule". ... I didn't know you'd been arguing this, but then I didn't see that it required any argument. ... Well,...
