The book features the scenarios 'The God Skin' by Sandheart creator Jon Webb, and 'Mad Prax: Beyond Sun Dome' by Chaosium's Michael O'Brien, author of the original #RuneQuest 3rd Ed release Sun County (1992).
The four-part Sandheart series is available in the Jonstown Compendium @DriveThruRPG. To celebrate the publication of Book 4, prices of the first three books have been discounted by $2.00 in all formats. PDFs are now $9.95, and hardcovers are just $19.95.

"What began as a one-person operation (Jon) evolved into what I think is a best-practice example of @DriveThruRPG community content creation...
... with Jon gathering the talents of Glorantha-loving layout experts, cartographers, artists and writers to produce what have become some of the most well-received and popular titles in the Jonstown Compendium...
...It’s immensely gratifying for me to see that, coming up to thirty years since Sun County was published, there is still much to be written about, discovered, argued over, and gamed in, in this small and distant, yet special, part of Glorantha." —MOB, @Chaosium_Inc.

Apropos of nothing🤔, here’s a parable from legendary game designer Greg Stafford:

Back in 1966, Greg first started creating #Glorantha, future setting of the #RuneQuest TTRPG. He began by describing the west coast of the northern continent.

Wizards lived there, on the coast...
Greg describes how these wizards built up a great empire and, using ruthless means, tried to consolidate all of the stories and myths of the world into a great unified whole under their control.

(Yes, you could say these wizards “Gathered together all the Magic”.)
This hubristic scheme failed – the great empire of the God Learners managed to make so many enemies and have such internal contradictions that eventually what they so painstakingly built was torn apart in a terrible catastrophe that ended the age.

The Chaosium, a 🧵

The Chaosium was founded by visionary game designer Greg Stafford in 1975.

In 2016 Greg Stafford's world of Glorantha celebrated its 50th anniversary. In 2018, it was 40 years since the debut of RuneQuest, and 2021 is the 40th anniversary of Call of Cthulhu.
Said Greg about his company: "The first published RPG was Dungeons & Dragons, shortly followed by some other imitative games. Chaosium, however, was never content to imitate...
...but published games that were original in style of play, content and design. We quickly became renowned for our originality and creativity, and were responsible for introducing many things to the hobby that are standard today." – Greg Stafford.
